King of Thessaly

I am a monument to all your sins And all the people that you've let down As it began, so it can end Another reason just to keep me around Why did I keep you around? I am selfish, I consume Everything til there's no room It's time to drown myself And eat this pill to kill the Will to feel the shame That I betrayed The one I love Lips fit like a glove To empty out the waste to your face Picking at the bones you misplaced This isn't a bed, it's a coffin Culling all connections Culling all connections As I cry, "Not again!" Not again! Not again! (Death at the altar White dress with halter top Romance is dead But don't you ever let me Beg and barter I'm blacked out and bound to drop Romance is dead But don't you ever let me Stop You) They said "I love you And I want you to fix me" A little touch to fill them up A rush of dopamine They said "I need you And you promised to fix me" But I'm not a martyr And you're not a cause Misshapen behavior Forced to fit the situation Glove-box romance Hit the speakers! Sex with weaker men got you down? So don't frown Cold crown that clown Go grab your gown And hit the town To forget the sound of the places They ground your heart to pulp For metaphors An ice cold contagious corpse Just warm enough to Keep you around Time after time I let everything I love Die and rot on the vine Just warm enough Just warm enough to (Death at the altar White dress with halter top Romance is dead But don't you ever let me Beg and barter I'm blacked out and bound to drop Romance is dead But don't you ever let me Stop You) I swear I squeezed You tight between my teeth Hard pressed by a bony caress A gilded lily, laid to rest Don't let me stop Don't let me stop Don't let me stop
