Lyrics Antipathy - Pridelands

Antipathy

Sacrifice the light
Sit here, watch it fade and splutter
I watch your eyes grow wide
Convince me, I don’t matter
Dog-eat-dog world, are you having fun?
Did you bark for too long?
(Too long)
Never gonna change
So won’t you leave me with a scar?
Yellow teeth break the skin
Two faces look the same
With a mouth speaking false truths
A ghost lives in your shadow
Broken, murdered in their youth
Cast your magic, weave your spells
Cage me, constrain me
Sinking fangs, a poison catalyst
You won’t even notice
I’d love to see you dig your way
Out of this fucking mess you’ve made
Shifting shadows prey on everlasting doubt
I hope you’ve made your choice
I pray you make it out
Now go, cut and run
Disappear like the others
Dog-eat-dog world, are you having fun?
(Having fun? Having fun?)
And I can feel it all
A pulsating light
Triangulating now
But I need another sign
I’ve grown so selfish here
On my synthetic high
Won’t you drag me down?
I’d love to see you dig your way
Out of this fucking mess you’ve made
Shifting shadows prey on everlasting doubt
I hope you’ve made your choice
And I never believed you’d be like this
Never dreamed you’d want me dead
Your reprieve, like shelter, for a time
Coward, no spine, no guts, no neck
How I would rather watch you slip
Up all over your own self-doubt
I hope you’ve made your choice
I pray you make it
Out
