Prizeless

And you dressed it up in extra distress...you masked me with happiness, but behind it, I felt lost and felt less like a human...a total mess...
Your ways tainted me like the ink of a tattoo under my shedding skin.
You left me to be for awhile in loneliness
You drugged me up with lies and fantasies from deep within...yet, I'd like to thank you for helping me out through thick and thin
But, baby, I won't be buying into your product of pleasure...to be honest, it was a waste of time and downright worthless...
(let's end it here)
All I can do is cherish our time for at the time it was to me priceless.
Nightmares perch in my brain like owls ooh ohh
