Black Mamba

Everybody wants to talk but they never listen

Blank faces seeing every fucking thing through tunnel vision

You turned your back, your skin like ice

Head down, eyes shut, blood breath, suffocation

Needle to the eye

I will never lie

These scars paint a picture that I’m forced to hide

I will never, I will never

How many nights spent in collapse collecting the knives you left in my back

I’ll cauterize the wounds with every inch of vomit you called a promise

But fuck that, it’s not enough, it never will be, feel no guilt but your hands are still dirty

I’d lie on a rusty bed of nails and you’d still walk over me

You’re the deadweight constricting my chest

Only the lonely will hold me like this

Fuck your mind games

I don't play safe

I hope you’re satisfied

Looking for answers but you can’t even look me in the eye

Fuck your mind games

I don't play safe

And I will see this through

So motherfucker look at me when I’m talking to you

Coward

It’s time to shake the rust off the chains

Buried resent in your face

Tear apart the walls dismantle the frame

Neglect but you will remember my name

How many times do I have to cry out before this is felt?

How many times did I stand by your fucking side?

Not enough, never was, never will be

You abandoned me
