You rob me of all my energy, desolating my little sanctity You rob me of all my energy, leaving me with nothing but misery I foolishly built a home in your soul because I mistook comfort for security I painstakingly withstood the chagrin yet you repay me with your folly Your mouth is a gun The words you spew fly like bullets in no time they crush my bones tidy They exterminate every bit of life in my body At the end of it all I am left with nothing I feel naked like a mole rat in spring But I clothe myself with assurance and confidence everyday I mask myself with false mirth I pretend I pretend I pretend and will continue to until the very end
