I'd Rather Drown

Thanks for treating me like every boy you meet So please, come in and take a seat Here's the part where I learn, and you will teach On how to treat people like a piece of meat I want a genuine, not a replica Lethal medicine, a pin to the cornea A sight for sore eyes While other guys consume the lie, I'll run and hide No doors exist on my fortress The only entrance is the one I bear You're nothing more than a temptress I fell victim to a heartless snare Burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I cannot trust you easily Or think that I'm the only one I never let people in And I have you to remind me why So, baby, burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I'd rather drown I'm the master of construction Because I'm building walls like it's my occupation If you portray a liar I'll shut you out without hesitation It's an art form of consummate skill Oh, how she plays them like the pawn Making boys drool at her will Like Pavlov to the dogs No doors exist on my fortress The only entrance is the one I bear You're nothing more than a temptress I fell victim to a heartless snare Burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I cannot trust you easily Or think that I'm the only one I never let people in And I have you to remind me why So, baby, burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather Drown me, slit my throat so lightly Pick me up and drop me right into my grave And now I wonder, sit alone and ponder Should I even bother, when I see your face? The itch I couldn't scratch Thought I'd come crawling back, but no I'd much rather, rather, rather, rather, rather (sing it, boys) I'd rather burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I cannot trust you easily Or think that I'm the only one I never let people in And I have you to remind me why So, baby, burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again Go ahead and burn the bridge right down It's what you wanted Burn the bridge right down I'm not the only one, the only one So, baby, burn the bitch down I never will cross that bridge again I'd rather drown
