You can stop acting like you're listening
Go ahead and pick their side again
Say one thing, mean something else
But this time I wanna see you take this to the end
You made the decision to hold my own words against me
At least now I know you will listen because I'm everything that you see
Can't wait to watch you suffer and learn like I did the hard way
"Time heals all wounds" is not true and this wound gets deeper every day
You make it clear that you wanna be a thorn in my side
So now I have to perceive everything that you say as lies
You're trying to play games but I'm tired of playing nice
You think you can redeem yourself and I'm waiting for you to try
I wear your blood, it blesses me
By our hands it comes in degrees
You scream, you cry, you beg, you plead
How sweet the sound, the fear of the enemy
My will is strong but my conscience is weak
I feel the ground trembling under my feet
You lost yourself in a haze of the streets
Paralyzed with fear, you will submit
