Can't you see how far I've bent? Fuel abuse at my expense The limbs that crawl up silken threads And swift entomb the not quite dead
That sickening numbness hindsight hides Like spiders creeps out from inside Remember, simply don't pretend Both good and bad will come to end
[Chorus] How love's blindfold wears so thin The world's too strange when seen without The arrow's head plunged so far in My body taught me just how to live on without
You tore away a part of my body So virgin pure You fed off blood from my soul No longer will your silhouette haunt me Reject obsession Let it burn in the cold
Writhing, wriggling free From all the superficial constraints But that sickening numbness hindsight hides Like spiders creeps out from inside
[Chorus]
Your fingers burn their prints on my skin But greedy hands can't grope their way into my mind No more will your venom reach my awe-glazed eyes (Permanent scars) Though my last hope was strangled Although you've burned me
That corpse constantly shadowing my every move With each step I take pavement grinds my flesh away The precious static rest beneath my slumber holds me up Though persuasion pulls me down
