"Better Written Villain" lyrics

"Better Written Villain"

Feed and feed
Till you feel full enough
Full enough
As you fill
You can fool
You can fool them all
Where you lack control, beneath
Affixing the blood that you want
As the sun recedes, vultures follow me
And lust the wrongs that you cause

What's the feeling that you get
When everything isn't how you intended?
Have you ever been to some place you had no control of whatsoever?
Chasing, erasing, retracing
It never ceases amazement
Your phrases deface me
Berated conscience
All for what resolve?
I've heard it all and
All for your denial
I won't oblige this now

As you fill
You can fool
You can fool them all
Where you lack control, beneath
Affixing the blood that you want
As the sun recedes, vultures follow me
And lust the wrongs that you cause

So much for the best that we could do to show we won't be robbed
That we've just been lost in a sea of scrimmage
The unforgiven shrieking within the windows
The carnage seeing me
Harnessed in a field of darkened souls
I'll be fine
Fine for now
I'll face a crowd of your embers
How we thought we'd be sincere
And I don't care if time runs out of reach from here
I'm disappearing

You never lifted your curse
I'm only making it worse
Hell finds a place where it hurts
Now you're surprised I'm not away
Dawn comes to break and immerse
Your altar, winds that converse
Your genocide is rehearsed
Now I'm the one to call the play
