Cake / Obsolete

I wanna tie you up

I wanna tie you down

I want to keep your pickled heart

In a jar in my apartment

'till the neighbours complain of the smell

I want to keep you like a secret

Have my cake and eat it

Keep all your corners all to myself

But nothing lasts forever

And baby someday you'll need another

So let me eat cake

While I'm able to keep the pressure on my lips

Let me eat cake

While I'm able to keep you on the precipice

'cause someday you will find

A malaise in your mind

Makes you seek a different emphasis

So let me eat cake

While I'm able and then off with my head

(God knows you deserve it)

You had your ducks in a row

Nine years of overwork

Look what you've got to show for that

But pulling threads creates holes

And man, that's all you need

To see your lovely sleeves

Becoming obsolete, you've overreached

And now you're on the run again

Obsolete 'cause you felt a need

For having all the fun again

And now they know

You've lost control

You wrapped it up in bows for them

Obsolete your dignity

Now off with your head

God knows you deserve it
