Veratrum

Run away from my indifference, it's a choice that has no substance
Who you are is not on my conscience, you made your bed now lie in silence
Words like glass they cut infections, but for me, I see right through them
I write lines with false perfections, empty words that seem so useless

And you try to censor my thoughts with your conformance
These days have withered away to gardens of deviance
You can't hold my life by the look in your eyes, I killed the part that craved your toxic gaze
I'm in puzzle pieces, spread out on carpet slowly waiting to be completed

I don't need you, like you want me to
Lost my inhibition and swore it'd never come back screaming like a maniac
I don't need you, like you so do
We're a rose, prickly sides, wilted, and sure to soon die

You've got a lot of nerve to say I lie right to your face when
I say I'll never come back to your door and stand in the cold but
Turns out you never really knew me, that's okay, saved me in the end
So fuck your fantasies of my resilience crying "baby, I'm home"

I don't need you, like you want me to
Lost my inhibition and swore it'd never come back screaming like a maniac
I don't need you, like you so do
We're a rose, prickly sides, wilted, and sure to soon die
