Kindness and grace only got me so far / I grew bored of the bittersweet taste of Mea Culpa / Obsession was imprisoning me / But you can call me Houdini cos bitch I cut myself free // I pass retribution with a saccharine smile / I'm the executioner so walk the long mile / Remember every morning when you rise from your bed / To keep your friends close and your enemies dead / Dead / Dead / Dead // I'm a cur / I'm a dog / I'm a sinner / I'm a thief / I'm a victim perpetrator / I'm a rescuer and leech / I've been cast as all players and the slipper rarely fits / As I sip from the chalice of this uncleanly godliness // I dance to the tune of the wolves as they howl at the moon / I see you gasp for your last as you lose your grasp on the spoon / The silver lining / I'll put a cloud in it / If I could bottle the cough of your remorse I'd be downing it // Remember every morning when you rise from your bed / To keep your friends close and your enemies dead / Dead / Dead / Dead // Keep your friends close / And your enemies / Keep your friends close / And your enemies / Dead
