We both end up defeated We both end up with our teeth In each other's necks With our enemies sworn And our dignities torn Can we hold ourselves From the monster that's coming next I try to say through a busted lip That I still love you And want to take accountability And did you say "you better mean that" Or did you understand Eventuality? There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of this reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the sword That will end my life But you never lied But you never lied There's no actor here No actor If I could build you an army What would keep their hearts Steady in the war? Cause we built this house But what it's made from These days, I am just not sure It's a fight to win For the crystal, willfull ignorance Can I be real with you? Stop asking questions You don't wanna Know the answer to. There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of this reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the sword That will end my life But you never lied But you never lied There's no actor here No actor I'm DISTENDED I started melting Cause I DON'T WANT TO MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE WE'RE JUST STIMMING BUT YOU'RE SO SURE I'M THE WORST WE'RE JUST STIMMING I FEEL CURSED The best intentions. There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of a cruel reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the coward That will end my life But we never lied But we never lied There's no actor here The best intentions.

No actor
We both end up defeated We both end up with our teeth In each other's necks With our enemies sworn And our dignities torn Can we hold ourselves From the monster that's coming next I try to say through a busted lip That I still love you And want to take accountability And did you say "you better mean that" Or did you understand Eventuality? There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of this reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the sword That will end my life But you never lied But you never lied There's no actor here No actor If I could build you an army What would keep their hearts Steady in the war? Cause we built this house But what it's made from These days, I am just not sure It's a fight to win For the crystal, willfull ignorance Can I be real with you? Stop asking questions You don't wanna Know the answer to. There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of this reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the sword That will end my life But you never lied But you never lied There's no actor here No actor I'm DISTENDED I started melting Cause I DON'T WANT TO MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE WE'RE JUST STIMMING BUT YOU'RE SO SURE I'M THE WORST WE'RE JUST STIMMING I FEEL CURSED The best intentions. There's no actor here Just the hulking weight of a cruel reality You lied to protect me I'm in the wake of the coward That will end my life But we never lied But we never lied There's no actor here The best intentions.
