Swing

You crack up as the rage strangles each breath out of me
You got what you wanted
I'm no longer what you need
While you choke on your fucking gluttony
From the rafters I will swing swing swing

What a sight
Me no longer on your mind
Out of fucking time
All these fucking times
That my love went blind
Now my heart's gone dry
You can cry, but
From the rafter's I will swing swing swing

So tattoo your name on my grave
Let the shadows pray
The afterglow is gray
The aftermath is shade
In time you'll be okay
But it's not gonna change
From the rafters I sway

Tomorrow's a new day for you
For me a new shade of blue
Two days from life removed
Walk a mile in my shoes
End up bloodied and bruised
The neuce is tied twice as tight, double deuce

You need a reminder then fucking look up
No longer your hookup
Sit with your habit
I won't cook up
I know you'll panic, can't stand it
Demand it to be another way
Far too late from the rafters I sway

A few inches is all I need
For me to release gravity from my feet
As I hand him his worst defeat
I leave you alone in this world to swing
So sit with my corpse for as long as you like
I won't answer just stare blankly into your eyes
Pray to your Christ
He won't answer this time
From the shadows you won't see me rise

So give this shit up
I will never live up to your expectations
Waiting for patience is like opening a book you wrote
And only seeing blank pages
It's fucking outrageous man

Finally I feel nothing
Feels alright
Finally I feel nothing and it feels alright alright
Finally I feel nothing
Nothing feels alright
Your victim no more
So long, farewell, goodbye

Your prayers weaken the knees
No longer your weekend disease
Body cold like a winter breeze in a deep freeze
More lucid than the dreams
Each scream it seems to ring
Above the rafters where I swing
See our pain was never the same
You injected yours in the vein
Mine from birth like a fucking shirt stain
Shame should've been my first name
Knew from the first date
From the rafters I would sway

Oh now you want me to stay
You need me in the worst way
Too bad bitch, it's fucking far too late
Maybe I'll be your ghost
Like a pair of knives to your throat
I'll be the parasite to your host
Maybe I'll dare you to tie the neuce around your throat
And join me in this fucking compost
I will always be the tone on the other end of the phone
Even though I'm gone I will always be home

Now watch me
Now watch me as I fly
Your poltergeist for life
Until you die your mine
Then I will haunt you until the end of time
I will never leave you alone
Never leave you alone
Never fucking leave you alone
I'm gonna drive you insane until you sway
Don't wait, these rafters can take both our weights
