Narcissus

[Verse 1: Max Bemis]

In love with yourself, you first met

On the rainy steps where your conscience left

And in the acid rain, shot through your veins

The taste of your lips and your fingertips bloodied and gripped

The courtship was short I do report

As your former confidante, he who you were leaning on

It was so hard for me but not hard to see

How you could fall for yourself

[Pre-Chorus 1: Max Bemis]

After all, I loved you

After, after all, I loved you

[Chorus: Max Bemis]

I'd rather die than let you chew upon my energy

I know you're no friend to me

After all you've done I'm free, and I can finally see

I'd rather die than let you ever get away with this

You are the antithesis

Narcissus, this kiss could be upon my own lips

I'd rather die

[Verse 2: Max Bemis, Sherri Dupree-Bemis]

Yesterday, I caught myself

Dreaming of the day we laying the flux of fate

In denial of our sick and dying love

As those tiny suns die in the onyx above

My friends never liked you, now they truly hate you

So, jump in a polluted great lake, go fishing for snakes

You have no alibi, your bright and burning lie

You won't convince me the devil's a reasonable guy

[Pre-Chorus 2: Max Bemis]

'Cause he loves you

After, after all, he loves you

[Chorus]

I'd rather die than let you chew upon my energy

I know you're no friend to me

After all you've done I'm free, and I can finally see

I'd rather die than let you ever get away with this

You are the antithesis

Narcissus, this kiss could be upon my own lips

I'd rather die

[Bridge: Modulated Voice]

Baby, you'll be dying soon

Deafened by a sonic boom

Drowning, dying in the sea

Sink beneath the brine for me

You will die and I will live

I have no more love to give

Knowing all the wrong steps

To pull you from your sinking cage

Baby, you'll be dying soon

Deafened by a sonic boom

Drowning, dying in the sea

Sink beneath the brine for me

You will die and I will live

I have no more love to give

Knowing all the wrong steps

(To pull you from your sinking end)

[Chorus]

I'd rather die than let you chew upon my energy

I know you're no friend to me

After all you've done I'm free, and I can finally see

I'd rather die than let you ever get away with this

You are my antithesis

Narcissus, this kiss could be upon my own lips

I'd rather die

[Outro]

I'd rather die

I'd rather die
