How do we know when to get off this merry-go-round, you and I Spinning and spiraling till we dizzy and drop We are monsters in our own right, but I suppose it must take one to spot one Wolves in sheep’s clothing... Isn’t that true of anyone?
To what degree do we all reek of sin? To what degree must we struggle to overcome our cruel nature? And to what degree must we repent?
It seems as though I do not make the cut But what of you then? You’re certainly no angel We crawl to these depths together because we know no one else could follow us here We peel each other's pitiful masks to expose the cowering demon beneath Only we can indulge in such a spectacular sight For we bring about the worst in each other Mirrors of our weaknesses We can’t look away It’s exhilarating, terrifying, numbing, comforting How could you see our union as anything but destiny Anti-soulmates... Will we ever truly escape each other?
