Stranger |
| Your ghost holds me close |
| As I’m ravaged by the solitary that surrounds my former home |
| Use me until you’ve spent the rest of my remains |
| And then try to validate your actions |
| Cursing every empty vein |
| That used to be inhabited by your impression |
| Paralyze me |
| To ensure I have no chance of knowing the feeling of affection |
| It’s no secret that I’ve shed the common decency |
| That appoints the world with the burden of devotion to our kin |
| I gave you everything I had and the world has left me exhausted |
| (So make me feel) |
| So make me feel something |
| Anything that might change my mind |
| As worthless as I am, I know that I still serve a purpose |
| To leech off the light and absolve my insignificance |
| Lay me to rest |
| Lay me to rest inside of a glass casket |
| So you can remember me with a smile on my face |
| Adorning me in my own failures |
| So you can count them as you stand above my bones |
| I wish I were a better man |
| I am a coward masked in courage |
| And just admitting this will not save me this time |
| So free me from my tired mind |
| And let me learn the difference |
| Between a single tear and the runoff of an ocean |
| Weak and weary from my predatory nature |
| So bless me with abandonment in my greatest time of need |
| Let me carry on knowing that I could never truly face my reflection |
| It’s much easier to caress the broken glass (broken glass) |
| Though if I accidentally catch a glimpse of myself in the shards |
| I will put my faith in the shrapnel to correct my vision |
| I am a stranger when I stare into the eyes of those I love |
| Look away in disgust |
| Protect yourself from the sight of my deception |
| I am a stranger when I stare into the eyes of those I love |
| Look away in disgust |
| Protect yourself from the sight of my deception |
