Backdoor Enthusiast

Wickedness taps on the dullness of your soul

The calling you never disappoint

Sincerity left for dead

Cold and alone as you left it

Getting off on

Barbaric tendencies

 

The better judgment you shot out of orbit

The stars weeping in pain

Your forgotten heart

Your fallen embrace

The admiration that I thought was diamond-pure

All of it now

Just ten thousand leagues under the sea

 

I’m forever nauseated

THE LIES YOU SPOONED TO ME

Potent

Unbearable

A recipe for disaster

This nuclear meltdown

THIS MESS YOU CREATED

Can never be undone

 

Go ahead

Dance in the deceit

While you still can

Celebrate this tragic end

Because it won’t be long

Before karma

Bloodthirsty,

Savage,

Comes knocking down your door

The party crasher of them all

 

Cloak yourself in cowardice

Feed on my pain

Hit me right where it hurts the most

The target’s on my back

Take the easy way out

Just like you always do

Forever a backdoor enthusiast
