Play the Killer

I can barely eat
I just drive around the IE
Second-guessing the rashes beneath my eyes

I rip the life right from this thing
Without looking but not totally stopping
The blood is gone but the dent's not worth fixing

You make the tightness go away
You make it easier to breathe
But when I'm around you're more terrified than ever
And I don't want to but I'll play the killer

Faked exhaustion shirks tender conversation
Glassy eyes see right through me
I'll leave you cryptic stares
Unsolved
You'll never find my body
Call me out to your car after you leave
"Is there something you wanna tell me?"

You make the tightness go away
You make it easier to breathe
But when I'm around you're more terrified than ever
And I don't want to but I'll play the killer

I would do anything to keep it from wrecking you
This is a quiet thing
I'll squeeze it til it bleeds
One last time I'll sit on the riverbank
And it's mercy, it's mercy, it's mercy
It's mercy, it's mercy, it's mercy

You make the tightness go away
You make it easier to breathe
