You tell yourself you’re ruthless

The cold hard blade on the edge of a knife

But right below the surface

Cut right down and you will surely find

A deep-seated repetition, with painful precision

This pattern you’ve played out before

Things will never change when you’re built like this

So find the prettiest mistake and give her a kiss

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it

This is the damage conceal it conceal it

Line it up exactly how you had it all before

End up where this all began, beginning once more

So you think that I deserve this?

This crippled core, this blind foresight

I kinda think I earned it

If I ever think at all these days I find

It’s desire, that idiot fire, that burns any reason to a hot white light

Things will never change cuz I’m built like this

I'll find the prettiest mistake I'll give her a kiss

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it

This is the damage conceal it conceal it

Line it up exactly how you had it all before

End up where this all began, and begin once more

Is the pattern repeat it repeat it

This is the damage conceal it conceal it

Line it up exactly how you had it all before

End up where this all began, and begin once more

Begin once more

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it

This is the damage conceal it conceal it

Line it up exactly how you had it all before

End up where this all began, and begin once more

Is the pattern repeat it repeat it

This is the damage conceal it conceal it

Line it up exactly how you had it all before

End up where this all began, and begin once more
