The Ladder

Isn't that what everyone wants to know Pretty new girl walks into a room, everyone's head turns Looks her up and down wondering who's she fucking Who could she fuck? And how high could she climb? And is it higher than me? Tragedy, a poisonous lover You infiltrate to destroy Vanity, a cancer unforgiving A charlatan with poise Fool me once, enough is enough Was I more than a step on your way up? Hollowed out, I've no semblance of love Now you're just somebody that I used to fuck Now you're just somebody that I used to fuck Lest we learn, the tables turn So I'm betting out, I'm betting out You can be the prey in your masquerade But I'm getting out, I'm getting out There's nothing left to repair Ravenous, self-righteous, and lurid But how much more till you break? Scavenger, so fucking undeserving You slither in just to take what you can take Counterfeit, I'm calling your bluff Was I more than just a step on your way up? Now you'll burn and you're flesh out of luck Now you're just somebody that I used to fuck Lest we learn, the tables turn So I'm betting out, I'm betting out You can be the prey in your masquerade But I'm getting out, I'm getting out Against insight I fed your source of revenue But now, it means nothing to me to mean anything to you Open grave, I was too blind to see That "love", spelled to you is "F-A-M-E" You fuck your way up the ladder Going down on your way to the top Do your arms ever tire? Or do they heal while you climb with your mouth? Delete everything, sever the yearning You can keep the fucking ring Delete everything You can keep the fucking ring Nothing left to repair
