Light This City

The Unwelcome Savior
You will find that some of the most exquisite eyes Mask the cruelest secrets A villainous in a goddess disguise I grew to easily distinguish your lies Your glossy, sincere smile, always too eager to please Everything good, everything hopeful that you ever said An obvious falsity, another loss of innocence The only truths you'd rarely let escape Horrifying enough to chill even the most shadowed soul You fucked up everybody's life you touched How's that for an accomplishment? "Surprise! I made you this exclusive key to my closet." Well I never asked to see your skeletons. How many crimes did you commit, guiltless and without mercy Before you realized you longed to be caught? In a way, I think you knew your secrets Would break me and I'd confess for you If you had played this desperate game more cunningly Everything good, everything hopeful that you ever said An obvious falsity, another loss of innocence The only truths you'd rarely let escape Horrifying enough to chill even the most shadowed soul You fucked up everybody's life you touched SongtexteHow's that for an accomplishment? "Surprise! I made you this exclusive key to my closet." Well I never asked to see your skeletons. I could have been your prisoner, your protege, or your slave But you succumbed to jealousy, an imaginary rivalry You'd never admit it, who could possibly rival a queen? But that's not at all what I mean I'd never pit myself against you You're right I'm sick with terror At the thought of being compared to you But not because I think I'd lose My one worst fear Is to become anything like you.
