Temporary
Nothing you do
Nothing you know
Can’t touch me now
Nothing you say
The things that you want
Can’t touch me now
I just had to have
A temporary fill in
To refrain from what I thought was right to settle for
Sentiment’s death throes throws me as hard as habits die
Nothing you do
Nothing you know
Can’t touch me now
Nothing you say
Shit that you want
Just try and touch me now
I just had to have
A temporary fill in
To refrain from what I thought was right to settle for
Temporary fill in
Just to emphasize the gap between myself and what I thought was right to settle for

Can’t talk now I’m out of work I think I’m sick I’m tired my cat is ill while all this time I might be a sex addict it’s nothing to talk about it seems that now he’s dying we’ll talk tomorrow soon enough you know I’m not ignoring
Stop overreacting
It’s nothing that’s happening
Just exaggerating
Leave me now feel sorry for me
Hold me love me need me
Won’t talk now and sick of this I t’s such a hard work trying self-diagnosing all the time spent wishing you were an addict it’s nothing to talk if doubt feels like a nightmare haunting you hold your shield tight knowing that won’t solve me by ignoring
Stop overreacting
Oh, nothing is happening
You’re just exaggerating
Frantic-lashing-self deceiving
You create this hell you live in
Brace yourself it’s never leaving
Holding loving needing

Walking the line

Walking the line
Walking the line when the stakes are high
Walking the line when the stakes are low
Walking the line and like steps behind me
Those words still linger on
I'm not the one to make you numb
I'm not the one to help you hide
Not the one to enable the lie
That keeps your eyes wide shut
Met your match
Now set the fire
All your fears would form this pyre
Learn to breath
While fine like paper
Cutting through he's here again
Walking the line when the stakes are high
Walking the line when the stakes are low
I'm walking the line and like steps behind me
Those words still linger on
I'm not the one to make you numb
I'm not the one to help you hide
Not the one to enable the lie
That keeps your eyes wide shut
Breathing through the fine pain
Bleeding for some true gain
Giving up this time will never let you go
Met your match
Now set the fire
Cutting through he's here again

Divide and conquer

Divide and conquer
Somewhere along the way
I got the feeling that’s okay
One truth explained between the words
So fine that no one has to say it
As the ones that seem to speak your mind
To lead the way
To set the guides
Prefers you'll stick to what's assigned
No fuss no play around
So fair so smart
They must be right
It took some time to realize
Its just that thing they're wrong about
Divide and conquer
My only problem (if there ever was)
Is just the fact
I sat and waited to receive it
What was always mine to take
So fair so smart
They must be right
I am the thing they're wrong about
Divide and conquer
Don’t need no one's permission
Only one truth to perceive
The thing I never needed
It was never yours to give
Divide and conquer
