lyrics

Hypocrisy: it's all that I do; I cannot seem to part with it. You've sworn them in. They know every clue. Where there's a will, a mountain stands in its way. I'm not allowed to fly, she stopped the engine. She's not allowed to die until we're finished. You said yourself you won't give up; if you won't mind, i'd like to try. You were not buried from this-- you were not. I cannot seem to leave you in pieces. We cease to be the morning after. Listen in, they're pleading to change your mind one more time. Open up your eyes, see me fall in love, and watch me feed her to the wolves. She's taken up my time-- It's more precious than her warmth; It moves quicker than you want. There she goes, she's strung up by her toes. You walked out on me. Listen close, hear them break all of her bones. How could this be? (The look on their faces. The worst of all places. My heart won't stop racing. I can do better now. No more temptation. However we phrase this, we can't be sated. Bitter and falling out.) This is falling apart. You're my unlucky star. I thought I was a millionaire but we did not strike gold. We ended up alone like we were when we were young and everything we touched turned golden. I turn the key but nothing happens. If we pretend, what’s the difference? You’re leaving now but won’t leave me. I caught myself just in time. Move the chair from under me. When you hear my snapping neck, we'll be free from us both. Make sure that the door is sealed. There’s children underneath; their lungs are full of smoke.
