lyrics

You love those you need
Til you don't need them no more
You leave them to bleed
On your way out the door

You take what you need
Don't give anything back
Your heart is all greed
Your soul is all black

You feel so entitled
We're all here to please you
Our lives are stifled
And that's fine by you

There's a world in your mind
Where you invent your life
Your heart is blind
To the blood on your knife

Your family looks the other way
Complicit and guilty
It's easier that way
They can claim neutrality

The refuge of cowards
The haven of the lame
Their lives are powered
By your fears and your shame

I pray
For the day
When the world sees you
For the whore
that you are
we both know it's true

You love those you need
Til you don't need them no more
You leave them to bleed
On your way out the door

You take what you need
Don't give anything back
Your heart is all greed
Your soul is all black
