Strike a match and light the gas, you make some smoke

To try to mask your horrid past and your wounded soul

Your aftermath, a heart of glass, now cracked and cold

And it bleeds upon all that I try to give

In desperation, I try to save this, I'm left with nothing

Projecting patterns, the mirror shatters, your image, crumbling

A spark ignites when we fight or when we’re fucking

I become blind and I submit to skin

Displace all my good intentions

Paint me as black as the walls

I'm left to rot in the questions

Pull me in then you withdraw

Break down my body and mind and soul

Display me upon your pedestal

From between your thighs, you take control

I'll lеt you play god, I’ll be the null

Cause I'm a shеll of a man and I don't love myself

You place me up on the edge, cage me in fear and contempt

And then you pull me back in, I start to spiral again

Just chain me to those sheets and do what you want to me

I'll be whatever you need, just promise you'll never leave

Is it love, is it lust

Maybe it's all the above

It's an addiction and

The hooks won't stop sinking in

I don’t know how to love myself

So, I guess, for now, I’ll just submit to skin
