You did me wrong! Yeah, you screwed me.
|
But a¢æ¡° guess what! I win, you lose.
|
How funny, what you show when you've got nothing to prove.
|
Everybody wants you? Everybody wants you dead.
|
But I want you right here
|
To see your face when you've got no one left.
|
|
Sticky fingers touch the treetops...
|
Could we collapse them with one slip?
|
Can you really swear by a reality where miles are measured by inch?
|
Tonight we are two, dipping toes in flooding puddles.
|
Programmed romance makes us shudder, pictures never grow old.
|
Obviously dusting powdery days off your skin,
|
Familiar eyes are rabid, transplanted to a stranger's skull.
|
|
How am I to keep you happy, healthy and strong when you harbor such infection, such scar tissue in your bones. I didn't think dysplasia would so affect it. You know, tonight there is a crime to commit.
|
|
I'm thinking it through a¢æ¡° I'm convinced it's true. You're the beach of my attention but the tide is coming in. Will you buckle down like barnacles, a one-time contagion?
|
|
Will you passively wade away like layers of pollution? Or will you still be holding your breath when tides go out again? What happened to what you thought of me? I shattered all the imagery. The pretense was a forgery a¢æ¡° I really am what I present. You know, tonight there's a crime to commit and I'm the criminal, victim and punishment.
