Barbed and callous tongues shall lick
Behind the thinnest doors
A web of falsehood so unfolds
Humility
Pride dissected maliciously
A mockery
Bonds dissolve in endless mimickery
Cruelly illuminated the subject of shallow spectacle
Inherent weaknesses revealed
Contact withers to a lull
Once perfect pictures now stained with fingerprints
Tragedy fucks jealousy
The human heartstrings bend and break
Vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
Preying on tender moments
The failures of purest dream
Our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
A knife for every spine of every man
Nails scratching into the flesh until fibers are broken
Something's got to give
The bottoms of bottles no longer ease the pain
And the bathroom mirror reflects the face of autonomy
Man must invert
Internalize the pain
The sequence replays in the mind
The human heartstrings bend and break
Vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
Preying on tender moments
The failures of purest dream
Our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
A knife for every spine of every man
Away a lot ugly answers lie somewhere in between
Intrinsic disregard and the burden of weakness
They're sharpening
The knives are always sharpening
A life now stained with fingerprints
Something's got to give!
The language of the lie Barbed and callous tongues shall lick Behind the thinnest doors A web of falsehood so unfolds Humility Pride dissected maliciously A mockery Bonds dissolve in endless mimickery Cruelly illuminated the subject of shallow spectacle Inherent weaknesses revealed Contact withers to a lull Once perfect pictures now stained with fingerprints Tragedy fucks jealousy The human heartstrings bend and break Vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling? Preying on tender moments The failures of purest dream Our selfish means are the means to this fucking end A knife for every spine of every man Nails scratching into the flesh until fibers are broken Something's got to give The bottoms of bottles no longer ease the pain And the bathroom mirror reflects the face of autonomy Man must invert Internalize the pain The sequence replays in the mind The human heartstrings bend and break Vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling? Preying on tender moments The failures of purest dream Our selfish means are the means to this fucking end A knife for every spine of every man Away a lot ugly answers lie somewhere in between Intrinsic disregard and the burden of weakness They're sharpening The knives are always sharpening A life now stained with fingerprints Something's got to give!
