Filthy Pride

Heavy-handed
Rapid fire
Infatuation
With my filthy pride
To a senseless beating
Crippled and barely breathing
I tore off my skin
I'll hang from this noose

This is what happens when I show you my demons
Repeating the cycle that turns love into indifference
When I chase after affection, it won't chase after me
I get confused on why we always part so violently

But honestly
The day I met you
I started dying

Oh oh oh oh
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh oh oh oh
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh oh oh oh
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse
'Cause the day you said "no"
I started dying

Mindless madness
I am clueless
Thoughtless choices
I ruin myself
Tear into me like an unknown disease
Give me your damage
I'm begging you, please

She said, "Depression isn't sadness"
"A certain sense of apathy that hangs directly over me"
She'll wrap herself around my neck
I'm too numb to feel the entropy
Surrounding me

Because the day I met you
I started dying

Oh oh oh oh
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh oh oh oh
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh oh oh oh
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse
'Cause the day you said "no"
I started dying

You make me happy
You'll make me kill myself
I can be happy with you
But I can't be happy if I'm dead

Oh oh oh oh
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh oh oh oh
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh oh oh oh
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse

'Cause the day you said "no"
I felt alive
