"Death Wish" lyrics

My love, you love your time machine
Your power trips and diamond rings
The walls you built on teenage dreams
The well you dug for sinking things
Your words to kill are evergreen
So you must not feel anything at all

But how'd you get so bulletproof?
You trade your time for inside truths
Trade your time for any clue
Of what to do or not to do
Hate to say, it's nothing new
Aside from those few girls you keep around

How will it end? How long will you give me?
Till you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me?
Then you ask me to dance if there's someone around
You don't look the same when I look at you now

Honey pie, you're haunting me
I fell for your faux fantasy
You poured the wine, there's poison in it
Disregard my disposition
Proof is in the subtle things
Your eggshell floor is splintering now

And it freaks me out, I'm old enough
To know you as a gateway drug
You're everything I'll never be
You live to look for enemies
I have to bet that's lonely
Could leave you with an empty house

So how will it end? How long will you give me?
Till you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me?
Then you ask me to dance if there's someone around
You don't look the same when I look at you now

And I used to pretend that it didn't feel evil
Your light of a million suns burns through people
And bridges and cities till ash covers ground
A breath of your air is a death wish
And you're forcing my hand, but I'm a drop in your ocean
I ruined your plans of some grand self-promotion
The second you figured that I figured you out
Now you look away when I look at you now

Oh, look at you now
Well, look at you
