where there's smoke, there's fire

where there's smoke, there's fire
3.06.05

I see so clearly now
The way you’ve been waiting
Counting down the seconds until you can take over
Dive in, claw into my heart
And rip it out, just rip it out...

I don’t want to scream for you
The scent of your lies keeps me wide awake at night
Toss and turn, watch it burn
Through my soul, your world on fire
Ashes choking everything, fragility’s deathbed

I’m willing to strike the blind man
For refusing to see what I’m hearing everywhere
The buzzing of killers dying to have their hand at me
Just try me, a little dose of this toxin
And you’ll be just like me, too

Don’t you dare sit there silent
Ignoring everything I’ve said, because you’ve heard it before
Where have I heard this?
These words, you’ve plagiarized them
Straight from my mouth
Open, and waiting for you to come and fill me

Empty, but I can’t breathe
Everything is swirling inside
And I can’t let a drop of it out
Drip, like a broken faucet
Drip, drip, like blood on the sink
You haven’t driven me to madness
You simply threw me out in the cold, I made my way to madness myself

Now it’s burning, and you can’t breathe
But this was all your fault
Can you read the future?
You’re a magician, try your hand at heavy sorcerery
Watch it burn, watch it burn at the stake

Snake bite, poison slipping through your veins
Overtaking and pumping death into your breaking body
This is the end, I’m sitting in shadows
I can see right through you now
Because it turns out I’m not the only one invisible.
