Take off that pretty mask, darling
I know what you really are.
Don't fear, don't fret
It's not that far
Finish it now.
Just like I knew straight from the start,
Knew you were more than this
Go ahead and prove me wrong.
Get rid of that smirk, baby
I know you're more than
Cockiness and false promises
I know you're more than
Primitive, selfish bullshit.
Go ahead and hide behind your
Bearing and selfishness,
While I'm here on my knees,
Being fed your stupid lies
Like the rusty dog that I am.
Keep twisting and mangling
My words of love and patience
To things of your dark desire,
To things that you wish them to be.
Do it, Do it, Do it,
Keep your fucking mask,
Your selfishness, your bullshit.
Keep my patience locked up inside this
Pretty glass jar, held in your hands
As it cracks and splinters in your tight grasp
Leaving you with nothing but bleeding love
Dripping and coagulating at your feet.
Oh! I really like this a lot.
