You sit so still, unmoving   Stealing it, begging to stay   It drips on my skins surface   Drowning me towards the problem      Smiles and pretenses   Bring them all to watch the scandals tightning   Smiles and pretenses   With their frozen eyes, my knuckles whitening      Trust that it's all a distraction   Trust that your fucking nothing      Fighting the urge to hold my breath   Like a locust scraping dig in the trees   I can hear the gunshots in the background   Suffocation breathes the words of these shadows      Smiles and pretenses   Bring them all to see where this force I brought them   Smiles and pretenses   We're not any of it we have all forgotten      Trust that it's all a distraction   Trust that your fucking nothing      You sit so still, unmoving   Stealing it begging to stay   It drips on my skins surface   Drowning me towards the problem      Trust that it's all a distraction   Trust so you remain in line   Open up, Your blessed wings   Wrap them all around all of your things   Keep yourself in the company of kings   It's their hands that bleed from the strings
