You cultivate what you want to hear
Avert your eyes to avoid the mirror
Reality fades behind analogy
The punishment is in the elegy
Same paint, different canvas
Different Saint, same verses
You've done it again
Become the villain in the story
Had to tell yourself you're justified
A living allegory
We learn from you
What not to do
Lessons learned
Bridges burned
Cuffs tailored, it suits you so well
A pewter tongue
Asbestos lung
Tasteless, breathless, faceless, feckless
Same pain, different opiates
Different Saint, same curses
You've done it again
Become the villain in the story
Had to tell yourself you're justified
A living allegory
We learn from you
What not to do
You've done it again
Become the villain in the story
Had to tell yourself you're justified
A living allegory
We learn from you
What not to do
You've done it again
Become the villain in the story
Had to tell yourself you're justified
A living allegory
We learn from you
What not to do
