lyrics

I can’t help it if you’re foolish and you can’t be trusted with a human mind
You invested your pity fairly well too bad you need it to survive

Get away,
Get away,
Get away from me

Nice to see you pulled it off but who wants pity as the reason to succeed
There’s too much risk in the eventual exposure of your mediocrity
You’ll find that once you cross a certain line
They won’t grant any excuses to your deeds
It’s just a purpose for a paycheck and a way to fill your selfish carnal needs

Get away,
Get away,
Get away from me

I guess you need to learn what’s cheaply pandered always tends to snap
And fall apart
It’s kind of funny actually
You have confused your fashion fetish with your art
And now you wear it but it looks so goddamn ugly
Like your soul
Because that’s not how that is used and supposed to be
But then you lack true self control

Get away,
Get away,
Get away from me

It’s just a cycle of defeat
Your muse is wishing certain death each time you speak
And in a world of gifted minds
She’s cursing God for setting her up with a freak

Get away,
Get away,
Get away from me
