I like to break my friend's hearts myself
I like to see their sorrow for me
It gives me a twisted satisfaction
Guilts them when they flee
...
Gotta catch them with the sunshine
Reel them in with a laugh or two
Stop the night on a dime to let a tear fall
"I do it just to help me through"
...
Cut the cuticle short and watch the blood flow
Peeling off the layers as we go
I can't ever take it slow
A swift action and you're in deep
...
I see them look at me differently
Their tone is softer when they speak
It always tires them out eventually
They're never used to me being weak
...
I am the saint of decay
Forever pedestalled, Forced to stay
Look upon me with heartbreak in your eyes
Because I'm stuck here, rotting on the inside
...
It sucks, doesn't it?
Not being able to do a thing about me?
I know, I've tried.
You can move on with your superiority
