Face the Blade
I'm always ready for what's never coming
Can you really fault me for looking forward to the end?
Pressing your lips to a poisoned well
But it's too soon to tell
You can't take advantage if I don't let you in
Seeking redemption through practiced mercy
Understanding the part I play in your story
A sharpened end slips under my ribs
The price to be paid when you face the blade
How long have I kept you at arm's length?
A world too distant to ever lose myself again
The fear produced by power unused
Paralyzed by what's inside
Disappointing enough for the both of us
Too overwhelmed to make a difference
My inside spill onto the pavement
Mimicking a field of orchids
A beautiful arrangement
The kind you wouldn't believe if you hadn't seen it
No feeling is permanent
Change is mine to have, should I choose it?
But before these choices can be made, I have to face the blade
What else do you want from me?
Your affection feels like vengeance
Can you really fault me for looking forward to the end?
Pressing your lips to a poisoned well
But it's too soon to tell
You can't take advantage if I don't let you in
Seeking redemption through practiced mercy
Understanding the part I play in your story
A sharpened end slips under my ribs
The price to be paid when you face the blade
How long have I kept you at arm's length?
A world too distant to ever lose myself again
The fear produced by power unused
Paralyzed by what's inside
Disappointing enough for the both of us
Too overwhelmed to make a difference
My inside spill onto the pavement
Mimicking a field of orchids
A beautiful arrangement
The kind you wouldn't believe if you hadn't seen it
No feeling is permanent
Change is mine to have, should I choose it?
But before these choices can be made, I have to face the blade
What else do you want from me?
Your affection feels like vengeance
