Come, take a walk with me
Feel those hundred eyes, they can see
Right through your disguise, honey
We know you did not yet spend that money
You have not changed at all
Your body the same, your brain taking a toll
On these words I shall tell you
Tell me, will you let them ring true?
Allow me to wrap my words around your throat
Suffocating, a heavy winter coat
Shall I win that easily, sir?
You would make such a lovely daughter
With long flowing hair and eyes of a woman
Stop lying, show them
I cannot show them
Be truthful to these men
You do not control my mind
Leaving spikes of doubt, you are unkind
If you think that your foolishness is strong
Show it elsewhere, go, move along
I do not need your words of venom here
Right when things become crystal clear
You will not be in my portrait
Hateful notes; I'm not afraid to throw it
Into the depth of my mind, trash
I know we collide, we crash
But I cannot have you here anymore
Your thoughts are making my eyes sore
You need me
Cant you see?
I will reveal the reality
To you; no more lies you see?
My words are true
The only one thinking that is you
I don't need you here with me
Then leave, honey
Goodbye
For now
