House Aflame Lyrics
I can be relied upon for nothing less than patently perversely narcissistic disappointment (I swear it)
I will do my worst to do my best
I'll try to try: leave nothing left except my A-bomb and my ballistic ammunition
Half brain/ Halfwit/ Full Blame/ Full Charge
Guess who/ Guess Right/ Selfish/ Self large
Self incrimination of a trumped down declaration of no principles and no mercy
I've been telling the truth and swearing it's a lie now
Manning a booth dedicated to my step right up pin the tail on my cowardice
'Cause I'm two faced, bald faced (shit faced)
Vested in disinterest I wanna claw to the core barest of my breast
I wanna rip at the rib cage
Swinging open, open
Set the house aflame I've made the beds
I burned the corpse but I saved the head
Go on, go free
I know you're lost 'cause you're talking to me
I can be dissected without using any tools
My innards give away but nothing of my guileless ruse, bitch
I will do the least to hurt the most
So try to cry, behold my ghost:
He looks just like me but with more vigor less transparency
Soulless/ Soul suck/ Mind crime/ Mind fuck/ Luckless/ Muckfest/ Don't care/ Not there
Purposeful omission of the humankind condition I'm a dolled up apparition
Vertebrae display alacrity in housing hearts with ribs like candy
A peppermint stick to prick the carotid artery
Red and white striped agony - you see, this awaits me
See you
I want to see you
So it pains me
To know that I don't care to care
I will do my worst to do my best
I'll try to try: leave nothing left except my A-bomb and my ballistic ammunition
Guess who/ Guess Right/ Selfish/ Self large
Self incrimination of a trumped down declaration of no principles and no mercy
Manning a booth dedicated to my step right up pin the tail on my cowardice
'Cause I'm two faced, bald faced (shit faced)
I wanna rip at the rib cage
Swinging open, open
Set the house aflame I've made the beds
I burned the corpse but I saved the head
Go on, go free
I know you're lost 'cause you're talking to me
My innards give away but nothing of my guileless ruse, bitch
I will do the least to hurt the most
So try to cry, behold my ghost:
He looks just like me but with more vigor less transparency
Purposeful omission of the humankind condition I'm a dolled up apparition
A peppermint stick to prick the carotid artery
Red and white striped agony - you see, this awaits me
I want to see you
So it pains me
To know that I don't care to care
