Lyrics
Verse
I'd like to make you feel like you're in debt to me
You're a little attention starved, for your identity
A little vindictive mind, destroyed by time
And I can depict your crimes, through your verbal eyes
Pre-Chorus
You leap to conclusions about who's got deeper bruises
Make careful movements, take a wrong step and lose me
This match is burning, just lean in forward
It's all laid in my hands, all our weight
This match is burning, just lean in forward
Chorus
You drew a line here
I built a wall
You like to appear
So casual
I'll provide you
With a visual
I'll pull you in near
Leave you alone here
I can be vindictive too
Verse
I'm gonna make this clear
By this time next year
You're gonna disappear
A malicious endearment
Been letting my eyes adjust
Through lucid distrust
And its' coming from both of us
I can play until your crushed
Pre-Chorus 2
We're creatures of habit, you lie and I examine
You've got quick reactions, and you underhand it back to me
This match is burning, just lean in forward
It's all laid in my hands, all our weight
This match is burning, just lean in forward
Chorus
Bridge
I perceive the truth
It runs opposite of you
Chorus
