Lapse - Lyrics by Vert


Lyrics
I know my frown looks like a smileand the sobbing seems like laughteryou thought the tears were bloodmy private pain a floodshe's your way she's your waymy bones they look like fleshmy veins they look like bloodand my mouth it feels so dirtymy hands are warm though you left me coldshe's your way she's your way
I know I look like scumand you know I feel like mudbut to who? maybe youshe's your way, she's a lapseshe's a lapse
I know I'm lower than youso how do I look, down your noseyour hatred grows as only the hated knowshow do I look to you now that there's a knife in between you toesthe blade grows as only the cut knowsshe's your way she's your way
I'll never let you forget that she's only your waythough you throw me to the fireyou're gonna run into somethingmaybe mefalling off your feetalways looking at me down your nosethe rooster crows as only the morning knows,and do you know?
