To Have Lost
Show me an ocean and I'll sail across
Professing matters of the heart
Who says it's better to have loved and lost
Washed up ashore like Bonapart
If you feel stupid it's on me
Took your sweetness on a killing spree
Slaying your spirit was the easy part
How now to turn the bloodshed into art
Don't think that I don't know when I begin to arise
You'll do your best to silence me and brush me aside
But I'll remind you there are rules by which we abide
Standing over you frenzied with murderous eyes
You lay there wounded and fearful now
Asking yourself if I'll be back around
Don't bother wondering what I am about
It isn't me you need to figure out
My mind's intact I still don't feel a thing
Tuned to perfection like a piano string
Despite your prowess, you will play the part
Don't act like you didn't want it from the start
It's clear to me now when my passion subsides
I'll do my best to seek it out again and plead for my life
Reminded each one of us has got to pick sides
I'm not at all surprised that you're not standing on mine
Professing matters of the heart
Who says it's better to have loved and lost
Washed up ashore like Bonapart
If you feel stupid it's on me
Took your sweetness on a killing spree
Slaying your spirit was the easy part
How now to turn the bloodshed into art
Don't think that I don't know when I begin to arise
You'll do your best to silence me and brush me aside
But I'll remind you there are rules by which we abide
Standing over you frenzied with murderous eyes
You lay there wounded and fearful now
Asking yourself if I'll be back around
Don't bother wondering what I am about
It isn't me you need to figure out
My mind's intact I still don't feel a thing
Tuned to perfection like a piano string
Despite your prowess, you will play the part
Don't act like you didn't want it from the start
It's clear to me now when my passion subsides
I'll do my best to seek it out again and plead for my life
Reminded each one of us has got to pick sides
I'm not at all surprised that you're not standing on mine
