Rollin' eyes and cuttin' ties

i stay rollin' eyes and cuttin' ties

i gaze right through the bitter deceit in your lies

you're guilty as sin, right down to the core

i know it's true, i've never been so sure

 

my veins proceed to stiffen

i feel my stinging heart throb

you've become so drastically different

as if conforming is your job

 

as i sit by my lonesome

goosebumps buzz across my skin

it's as if there was a ghostly presence

that even tickled the peach fuzz on my chin

 

overwhelmed with sentiment

i sprang up from my theoretical hole

i let out a yell one could hear for miles

then i felt the universe swallow my soul

 

i stay rollin' eyes and cuttin' ties

i'll stay true to me 'til i stop seeing the sun rise

for i now know the extent of my suffering

hopefully soon this feeling will stop hovering

 

to this all, i owe you

my darling, my dear

for i never knew guile could ever be so clear
