Lyrics
I tried to compromise
But you said you felt dead inside
To fix the passion
Instead you decided to cleanse your mind
The taste of guilt, stitched to the back of your gums
You did me dirty
Contrived betrayals, depicted as honesty
Cut up the insides of my face
Motherfucker what did you expect
Are your cyan blue eyes
Pseudo self-esteem deprived
I couldn't let you in
So you left me behind
Like the bile in the back of my throat
You want blood, I'll show you my pain
It feels like bleach seething through my veins
Drugged with denial
At best my thoughts become vial
Artificial sympathy, superficial enemy
My lifeless vessel confined by concrete
Spit out the blood, smile back
Motherfucker what did you expect
Why was I begging for forgiveness
Gave you a beating heart, you couldn't feel it
Keep playing the victim
Keep playing the fucking victim
I tried to compromise
But you said you felt dead inside
To fix the passion
Instead you decided to cleanse your mind
No compromise, keep playing the victim
Cyan blue eyes, fucking stained in crimson
Sharpen the blade, drive it through my gut
Is this the twisted idea of what you call love
Make me fucking hurt, even worse, drag me through the dirt
Tell me what I'm worth, tell me what I'm fucking worth
