Skeleton Heart
you said I’d never amount to anything
so I said I never wanted to be anything
(all you have is nothing I care for,
all you are is nothing I care for)
fuck your problems, and fuck your hate
fuck your everything that makes you so great
a burnt out star that fell from the sky
with all your words having me rolling my eyes
(I’m over, I’m over, I’m over your lies!)
guess I’m the nothing that cares for nothing
open up your scars
I see through that skeleton heart
the reason you crawl, the reason you fall
forgive them not, forget them is best
when all you have is imperfections
they can be imperfectly perfect with my, goodbye
emotions become the depths of the sea
locked away inside my chest, like Pandora
(the horror!, the horror!)
we are not one in the same
inconvenienced by fate
you’re as low as can be, feeding me misery
(a fucking disease)
thinking I needed your love
it was only a wanting to belong
for you it was only a means to an end
open up your scars
I see through that skeleton heart
the reason you crawl, the reason you fall
forgive I won’t, forget them I can’t
when all you have is imperfections
they can be imperfectly perfect with my, goodbye
I had much love and respect
but now just over the lost cause
some people just don’t get along
so stay away, and I’ll do the same
(won’t grab your hollow hands again)
abuse, heartlessness and insincerities
won’t ever get the best of me
I opened up my door so many times
but now it’s closed forever
(no need to pretend)
this evil was dark, this evil clawed at me
this evil was what you fed to me
but now this evil’s set free
so I said I never wanted to be anything
(all you have is nothing I care for,
all you are is nothing I care for)
fuck your problems, and fuck your hate
fuck your everything that makes you so great
a burnt out star that fell from the sky
with all your words having me rolling my eyes
(I’m over, I’m over, I’m over your lies!)
guess I’m the nothing that cares for nothing
open up your scars
I see through that skeleton heart
the reason you crawl, the reason you fall
forgive them not, forget them is best
when all you have is imperfections
