Narcissus

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
the who you were leaning on
it was so hard for me
but not hard to see
how you could fall for yourself
After all, I loved you
after, after all, I loved you
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
narcissist, this kiss could be upon my own lips
I'd rather die
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
'Cause he loves you
after, after all, he loves you
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
narcissist, this kiss could be upon my own lips
I'd rather die
(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)
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
narcissist, this kiss could be upon my own lips
I'd rather die
I'd rather die
I'd rather die
