The Screen You Look Upon

The screen you look upon

I made a mistake
Saying you were the one
I held you close to me
Like I would a loaded gun

You aimed and I fired
The sound went through my head
I made a big mistake
Now my promise is dead

I walk around aimlessly
Holding your hand
Everything you say
Becomes my command

The streets are full of sentiment
Saddened goodbyes
Trying to pretend to live
Or live inside the lies

I made a killer
Being the prey
Somewhere in the dark
In the shadow of a day

Look at the monster
They all sit and stare
Without a captive audience
Who could imagine fear?
(who would even care?)

There's nothing behind
The screen you look upon
The madness you see
Is the barrel of a gun
