lyrics
I’m watching you
Sweat as you move
Your mouth you say
You are so through
Feeding from hands
Holding onto
What fails to grow
What never grew
You nurse my ego
Like it’s your pet
To bathe and feed
I’m in your debt
Lucky me you
You don’t collect
You stare at me
Like I’m all you have left
Don’t hate me; its just who I am
Contemplate me; see the states I’m in
Excavate me; the idol golden hand
Separate me; sift out all the sand
And…
You’ll find a husk!
Filled up with loathing!
I’m watching you
Sweat as you move
Your mouth you say
You are so through
Writing these words
It’s all you do
Singing these songs
So much to prove
I see just what
You’re trying to do
I’ll call your bluff
With every move
Since when have mirrors
Been so see through
Since when have shadows
Staged a coup
Don’t hate me
Contemplate me
Excavate me
Separate me
And…
You’ll find a husk.
God, please don’t hate me for the shadows that surround me,
I know it’s hard feeling torn up all the time
Sweat as you move
Your mouth you say
You are so through
Feeding from hands
Holding onto
What fails to grow
What never grew
You nurse my ego
Like it’s your pet
To bathe and feed
I’m in your debt
Lucky me you
You don’t collect
You stare at me
Like I’m all you have left
Don’t hate me; its just who I am
Contemplate me; see the states I’m in
Excavate me; the idol golden hand
Separate me; sift out all the sand
And…
You’ll find a husk!
Filled up with loathing!
I’m watching you
Sweat as you move
Your mouth you say
You are so through
Writing these words
It’s all you do
Singing these songs
So much to prove
I see just what
You’re trying to do
I’ll call your bluff
With every move
Since when have mirrors
Been so see through
Since when have shadows
Staged a coup
Don’t hate me
Contemplate me
Excavate me
Separate me
And…
You’ll find a husk.
God, please don’t hate me for the shadows that surround me,
I know it’s hard feeling torn up all the time
