Give & Take (More Take)
I asked of one thing from you
The same thing I had given you
Now I realize the heart you offered
Was not every really locked in a prison
But is deceitful and its blood is poison
Its shallow heart beat hard to hear
It wears a mask of desire and fear
All the while knowing the brutal truth
That is just craved undeniable attention
Devouring the life of mine and its passion
How do you know someone who doesn’t exist?
Your deceiving words from the same lips I’ve kissed
Blind, deaf, completely ignorant to realm of reality
I let you walk right through the front door
Said to be someone special, you just made me your whore
I can’t say that I regret the role I played
In your twisted love story in which I was enslaved
The moments shared thought to be true
Have exposed themselves as the lies take hold
I become reborn into the darkness and winters cold
The sacrifices that had to be taken
To indulge in the our fantasy that had has forsaken
Were met half way, my half way
Once hidden behind fear and doubt
Your true colours glare what you are really about
Your desire to feel wanted that became your need
Ravaged my open soul until there was nothing left to feed
Anger and disgust flow through me violently
What I had already given you
Was the only fucking thing I have ever asked of you.
The same thing I had given you
