[seductive destruction you feel so new
our kiss twisting all of my dreams come true
big eyes staring sideways away from mine but..]
these words to this song arenít exactly what i feel inside
cliches like pain and life
they bleed onto the paper in a petty disguise
bad poems and phony regrets
i abuse all the excuses that i used to forget
for attention, i'm fresh so why not me
new love, new lies, new inspirations
sick thoughts, sad manifestations
all alienating in an alien nation
recycling words that rhyme
i lie to myself just to make it alright
this time i'll change the lines
and obsess over confessions that i can't leave behind
depressed by love, that's fine
expressed thru art that isn't mine
this song means nothing to me
but if it didn't exist than who would i be?
CHORUS
don't try to tell me im blind when you're the one who can't see
don't try to tell me that you're better than me because
i've never asked for your help, i'm just expressing myself
maybe one day you'll see that every song's a clone of itself
don't try to tell me i'm dead when you're the one who can't breathe don't try to tell me that you're better than me because
it's true i'm just like the rest but i just can't make the cut
i've died inside, i'm just a shell outside that should have gave up.
