Filthy Pride

(الألبوم: Empress - 2017)

Heavy-handed
Rapid fire
Infatuation
With my filthy pride
To a senseless beating
Crippled and barely breathing
I tore off my skin
I'll hang from this noose
This is what happens when I show you my demons
Repeating the cycle that turns love into indifference
When I chase after affection, it won't chase after me
I get confused on why we always part so violently

But honestly
The day I met you
I started dying

Oh...
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh...
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh...
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse
Oh...
'Cause the day you said "no"
I started dying

Mindless madness
I am clueless
Thoughtless choices
I ruin myself
Tear into me like an unknown disease
Give me your damage
I'm begging you, please
She said, "Depression isn't sadness,"
"A certain sense of apathy that hangs directly over me."
She'll wrap herself around my neck
I'm too numb to feel the entropy

Surrounding me
Because the day I met you
I started dying

Oh...
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh...
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh...
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse
Oh...
'Cause the day you said "no"
I started dying

You make me happy...
You'll make me kill myself
I can be happy with you
But I can't be happy if I'm dead

Oh...
I should've known a little better
Good things never last forever
Oh...
My heart in repose
I need you the most
Oh...
Feed me to the wolves
Like I don't have a pulse
Oh...
'Cause the day you said "no"
I felt alive
