(Verse 1) 
 
You have forgotten my heartbeat that’s spilled on these words 
Pacing the courtyard, sobbing so damn much it hurts 
And you’ve hid my body inside a casket full of cheap, dead lies 
I’m covered in black soot, destroyed by the anger of flies 
 
Your love towards me ruptured, now I lack a whole lot of faith 
No, not towards Jesus, but faith that I’ll get love someday  
I’ve stopped believing and all you can do is just cross me off 
Yeah, your list is for peasants who don’t care that I’m at a loss 
 
(Chorus) 
 
To all 
The ones who just laugh when I fall 
Then watch me bawl 
You seem not to remember  
The joy has suspended 
It’s time to brawl 
 
To all 
You painted me up like a doll 
Then through the ball 
And it cracked my face, porcelain 
You stole my endorphins 
You took them all 
Watch me fall 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Well, your body fled the scene when you lighted the fire 
You told the cops that it was me and in jail I stayed overnight 
Your hungry feast upon my desert eyes has come way too far
