I fucking nailed your cross
Into my skin
But I'm not a believer
I drowned myself
In the words that drain from your lips
But I still can't swallow them
I fucking hate how low
We sink in the shallows
Was I searching for substance
Because I don't recall a time
That I ever found it
You all taste the same to me
Blind romanticism
You call me surface level
You call me surface level
Constantly feed your egotism
Draining the life from
Something so superficial
I don't remember why I let your thorns rest
Deep in my side
All the sleepless nights
Your stones upon my chest
Take all the flesh you want
'Cause I don't need it
If I'm such a fucking coward
Baby make me believe it
Make me believe
I know it gets old waiting for someone to save you
I won't save you
I'll gladly take my place
Amongst the ones that have failed to
Can we make space inside this conversation
'Cause I don't feel like there's room for interjection
And we both know that this fucking car
Isn't big enough for our egos
So just drive it home
So I can get some sleep
I fucking nailed your cross
Into my skin
But I'm not a believer
I've drowned myself
In your words
But I never believed them
Take all the flesh you want
'Cause I don't need it
I'm fucking done with this conversation
Are we doomed to dance in this unending waltz
I only wish that this flesh could be more than
A home for your filthy claws
They dig and they dig for more
But still they're surface level
