lyrics

although some say you’re holy
i know the truth
and i know all you say is only
a spineless ruse

and though you may bleach your teeth
to hide a shit eating smile
there’s no denial:
we can smell it too

but since crowds embrace such folly
the paradigm absolves your lies
still i wondered why it had seemed
such dark disgrace pockmarks your face

(but who doesn’t seem pathetic,
once you’ve learned all their secrets…?)

and although you claimed it was only
a minor lapse, not meant to last
i always knew one day you’d show me
how it takes its toll, once you’ve lost control

because the words you say betray your actions
exiled to private trials we all see to
and all your deceit reeks of a stench that’s so vile
that all the while, we knew

that although you may seem nice
you know the truth
and no one knows it better than you:
you’re a horrible person
