Malevolent

(album: Happier? - 2021)

You're pouring salt on my wound
Goodbye, can't hide
And I feel it again
Sick of my skin
Above the dead

Because I know, when you pay the price
Will you take me again
Hit me again before I go?

Stuck in my head
Never mind, never needed a friend
When I'm good, malevolent
Burning it down instead at both ends

You wanted it all
Never need anything to resolve
When I'm bent
They don't get you at all, unethical

Diabolical debt again
I am an animal, malevolent
Diabolical debt again
I am an animal, malevolent

Diabolical debt again
I am an animal, malevolent
Say that you know me but my eyes look dead
I am an animal, this skin I shed

This skin I shed

Sometimes, with my hands tied
It hurts to see the truth when it comes back around
Sometimes, when I start to feel alive
It hurts to see the truth when it comes back around

Well you did it again, done it again, way to go
Goodbye to my inner soul
'Cause you hit me again, done it again, way to go
Goodbye to my inner soul

Diabolical debt again
I am an animal, malevolent
Say that you know me but my eyes look dead
I am an animal, this skin I shed
