lyrics

so lets cut this off 'cause you and me are just a little off
maybe one and one makes two
but honey I just can't see anything in you
when all you are is a blank slate
wiped clean from all the things they say
world of disguise you internalize
yea you sold off yourself another girl on the shelf

ain't it just a goddamn shame
they'll think I'm only saying this to get laid

can't stand the things you say
can't stand to live like this day-to-day
another reprisal another memory
a bad place that you've been forced to stay
look at me with those empty eyes
none of this is any kind of surprise
a sullen ghost with no home
haunting amongst so many lost souls

all with no emotion lost and broken soul
it takes one to create one don't lack fear
for what you haven't seen
the worst is yet to come

every time we fake this love
will we ever know when it's real

could you lift the weight of my soul
could you be the one to make me feel whole
oh baby please don't tell me that there is a toll

beauty in the eye and nothing but the eye
the beholders blind to whats inside
like moths to a light its dulled our sight
white noise in the night
I want to know are you drawn to the light or to the lie

so they say there's more fish in the sea
so tell me who poisoned this well
