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
