feigning_innocence
unhinged but i know i'm just as guilty
leaving things unspoken
allows us to keep them unreal
and neither one of us wants to admit
that we might
have developed something for each other
and i know you aren't a fundamentally bad person
that i'm just allowing you to fulfill
the prophecy that others have made for you
but what we were
was making me sick
a quiet interference
that just like everyone since her
i would gladly take usefulness
in place of love
and even the as yet one great love of my life
only boiled down to neediness
yes, i carry an equal part of the blame
for continuing something i knew would only end in hate
but i feel like i have no say
over my body
that to be used as a bedwarmer
beats not being used at all

i refuse to subjugate others to my disease
and my refusal only makes things worse in the end
i have the feeling that a crazy bitch like me is truly the last thing you would want
but then again lately, i've been getting the feeling anyways that i'm the last thing you want

i played the game just as willingly
got tangled in the strands
feigning innocence
to reinforce my own demands
never the transgressor
and always the transgressed
so that makes you the villian
while i sit on my victim's throne
feigning innocence


'you can have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt'
