"Defamation" lyrics
I find myself haunted
I find myself at the mercy of fools
And I am damned forever
A weak moment that brought out the wolves
And doubt that crushes up bones
I have to face who I am and so do you
I never wanted any part of this
I should have gave in
I should have left it alone
And every bit of pain you bring
Is like poison
It tears open the empty space
Cauterize all the wounds left open
Sever every single nerve ending
And let the numbness slowly sink in
I saw the hate in your eyes
It's just a matter of time
No, it's okay
Yeah, I'm alright
Just rip the whole heart fucking out next time
Drop my guard
And play with fire
To burn this place down with us both inside
You dragged my name
And took what's mine
Should've seen the snake that you are but I
Caught love in her devilish smile
Took me for a fool for the last damn time
Pain, God, it runs so deep
Paralyzed and it's all slow motion
Found a way to hurt myself
Bury it with every word unspoken
Waste, oh such a waste
Straight and narrow
Destroy the foundation
Now I'll await
Await the fallout
Where you and I don't survive
I saw the hate in your eyes
It's just a matter of time
No, it's okay
Yeah, I'm alright
Just rip the whole heart fucking out next time
Drop my guard
And play with fire
To burn this place down with us both inside
You dragged my name
And took what's mine
Should've seen the snake that you are but I
Caught love in her devilish smile
Took me for a fool for the last damn time
I've found comfort in places
I tried to just let it die but
It's hollow still
And I am waiting for something to change
Should I just sit here?
Take every shot?
No, it's not clear the picture that I had built up has
Rotted away with the love you didn't deserve from me
I've found comfort in places
I tried to just let it die but
It's hollow still
And I am waiting for something to change
Should I just sit here?
Take every shot?
No, it's not clear the picture that I had built up has
Rotted away with the love you didn't deserve from me
I've found comfort in places
I tried to just let it die but
It's hollow still
And I am waiting for something to change
Should I just sit here?
Take every shot?
No, it's not clear the picture that I had built up has
Rotted away with the love you didn't deserve from me
I find myself at the mercy of fools
And I am damned forever

I have to face who I am and so do you
I never wanted any part of this
I should have gave in
I should have left it alone
And every bit of pain you bring
Is like poison
It tears open the empty space
Cauterize all the wounds left open
Sever every single nerve ending
And let the numbness slowly sink in
I saw the hate in your eyes
It's just a matter of time
