BATS

I spent my time in the shadows
While you basked in the sun
No room in the limelight
Your fifteen seconds are done
You said your piece while I held my tongue
But tonight we light the pyres for the fallen one
Understand you prey else you will fade away
You've got two smiles
But only one
Resides above your waist

You sew your lies
It's part of your disguise
Should have seen this coming
Shouldn't be a surprise
There's a difference between love and hate
One you wanna fuck
The other you would castrate

Are you listening to my every word
In hope, that you, will find a connection
Are your reading through the pages in a cold sweat
Hoping you won't find your name
It's written here I swear
Read between the lines and you will find a hair
It's written here I swear
Not so subtle
That shit's just not my strong suit

I was there as the curtains opened
And I will be there for the close

For all you have said
Unlucky at best
Can't have it all
Karma is just such a bitch
You should have checked that tone
Obvious that you were born with a silver spoon
Lodged deep in your throat

I spent my time in the shadows
While you basked in the sun
No room in the limelight
Your seconds are done
You said your piece while I held my tongue
But tonight we light the pyres for the fallen one

This is a witch hunt
This is a witch hunt
This is a witch hunt
Execution taken public for a life that's a waste
