If I Were You I'D Do the Same

So you find comfort in knowing your in disguise
Cover up is your ski mask 
You never turned down the task
Eye shadow is the dark glass surrounding your eyes
I guess it’s possible to crack the skies 
We’ve seen through your lies 
Sorry this time laws apply 

Molded into something you despise 
Do you find comfort living in lies
Your gaze is full of death rays (You still dream of better days)
Is it possible to make your life plausible
Cause of all the things you fear sobering up 
From the beer falls atop the list 
Death hovers in your kiss

We’re leaving you somber 
Hope you soon are calmer
Mid as well cut off your skin because your uncomfortable within 
So let it begin burn out your eyes (Blackened with demise)
make silent your cries (The dream dies)
Dispatch of your tung (Purge the air of the lung)
Slip on the only necklace that fits
The liar finally admits she quits
Not sorry that your gone 
Astonished it took so long 
Alleviated we are that you’re burning where you belong 
What’s it like to see the final dawn
