A Get Out of Jail Free Card (To Kill For)

A dead letter fairytale
Best wishes that she never felt
It's been fun, I hope you're well
But I guess that you're still going to hell

Heavy crown of thorns
You think you wear
Severing wings that weren't yours to tear

Promises
Never heard
Are promises
That can't be broken

I want you to admit the truth
You don't know a fucking thing
You don't know shit

And therein lies the crux of it
You want know so bad it hurts
You want a guarantee to kill for

I wish you could see yourself
For what you really are
To live and let live
Could it ever be enough?

So
Dig a hole that's deep enough
To bury your guilt
Offer up
Your own neighbourhood
To get you off the hook

The sanctuary of a coward, it demands
That you kneel at the alter
With their blood upon your hands
I know that in your heart
That you crave this violent dance
Apathetic until your last breath

Their suffering won't get you in

All the pain, and hurt
It brings you back down to earth
In the soil, and dirt
Where only the weeds
Grow
