Deadlights


You were ahead of the curve
From the start
I couldn’t tell that I was a step behind
Figured it out just in time to find you
Pulling my thread
Does it clear your head?

You’d gotten so good at playing the victim & system
I’d believe every single word you’d spew out of your mouth
You’d gotten so good at flipping the situation
You’re not a damsel in distress if the dragon pays you

Knives
Disguised as what I
Thought were attempts
To get me back
Have done exactly that
Can’t you hear my spine crack?

You were just doing the rounds again
I got caught up in the idea like I’m
Falling asleep in wet cement
That was Poured out
Without a sound Do you not feel guilt?
(Sinking into the ground)
Have you checked your moral compass cause it must be off tilt?
You were ahead of the curve
From the start
Truth knows truth and you’re looking kind of unfamiliar right now
I don’t want to see your face
You’ve crawled your way into my life somehow

You can take back the words you’ve said
But actions speak louder and yours scream instead
Recognize the hurt you’ve inflicted
Turn a blind eye to the ones you’ve affected

As long as you can maintain the attention
And your secret army of spies that you’ve
Set up to lie about your actions
I’m done. It’s a battle that nobody can win

You were just doing the rounds again
I got caught up in the idea like I’m
Falling asleep in wet cement
That was Poured out
Without a sound Do you not feel guilt?
(Sinking into the ground)
Have you checked your moral compass cause it must be off tilt?
You were ahead of the curve
From the start

Mistakes are life lessons that we’re supposed to learn from
Tell me what I’ve learnt from this I swear there were none
