I woke up today and I thought "How can I cut my lover down?"
Reduce you to nothing, that was my goal.
I was so focused on cutting you to a nub and leaving my axe under the rug as I moved on to the next person to destroy.

I mean, who doesn't love a good betrayal?
I only did it to keep life interesting—
You know, spice things up, add a little thrill.
Your trust was just so boring, anyway.

And you? Oh, you’ll be just fine.
A little heartbreak never hurt anyone, right?
Consider it a gift from me—
A chance for you to grow, or whatever it is people say.

Putting you through so much pain was so fun!
You'll thank me one day, I mean, who else is going to teach you never to trust anyone ever again?
Such a valuable lesson...
A lesson etched deep among the scars along your arm

And don't worry about me, darling,
I'll keep on my merry way, bringing pain wherever I go
And laugh it off as the fires rose

Oh, the thrill of leaving ashes in my wake—
The shattered hearts, the twisted smiles,
It’s all just part of the game, after all.
Why settle for love when I could be a storm?
