My throat falls numb from the endless execution of contempt's song.
|
It fails to follow suit in silence even now.
|
I can hear every word. Leave this place.
|
If only you could just be half as hateful if only i could still take you with a grain of salt
|
i could fake some respect and hide the pity.
|
For what i once feared is now somehow down on my level.
|
I never claimed to see through another's eyes.
|
I could never inflict such abuse upon myself honestly.
|
Honest in a sense that i'm willing, but such intensity is dulled with age.
|
Leaving me some spoiled child.
|
I'll take it in stride, with every cheep shot landed.
|
I took it without crying.
|
Now shut the fuck up.
|
I've always sang the cowards song.
|
I've never claimed to be, anything but.
|
Like father like son.
|
We'll find an easy way i'll fly so high,
|
to no longer hear the hisses of hatred ringing in my head.
|
Selfishly sober in spite of you.
|
I'll never be the man to which you compare me.
|
Selfishly sober in spite of them.
|
You boast i'm dead to you and i in turn agree.
|
I turned a deaf ear on you, i knew the rest.
|
Sob stories were never my strong suit.
|
Now just as threatening as i'll let you be.
|
I keep a short rope, and a shorter fuse.
|
For the one who love's who?
|
I won't leave this place.
|
So boast i'm dead to you, with dying breath.
|
I can't hear a thing.
|
I never could.
|
Fuck your apologies.
|
I've tolerated your last death threat.
|
I don't condone the likes of anyone so keep your word
|
and consider me dead...to you.
