Off Switch

The change in your eyes
The split of your tone
No words can shelter my sins
Rejects were gods on the fringe
Trust was a gift
Promised to shift

Who did I impress
She was but a test
No one knows us best
Who will I impress
She will not attest
No flowering resists

Show me what you want
Sadistic, caustic front
Cauterize your soul
Your mind can't see the cold

How can you claim
I've lost my off switch
That gleam of the new prize
Didn't pull you away
I've lost my off switch
And cause the change your eyes

Refusal to scream
Your heart is obscene
Your savior's my foolish dream
Hedonistic guided gleam
Paint me to be
Your perfect sea

Who did I impress
She was but a test
No one knows us best
Who will I impress
She will not attest
No flowering resists

How can you claim
I've lost my off switch
That gleam of the new prize
Didn't pull you away
I've lost my off switch
And cause the change your eyes
How can you claim
I've lost my off switch
That gleam of the new prize
Didn't pull you away
I've lost my off switch
And cause the change your eyes

Show me what you want
Sadistic, caustic front
Cauterize your soul
Your mind can't see the cold

Cataclysmic fatal wounds
I've died to heal and now you swoon
Surely this was it
The one and only, bleed the writ
Put the bullet through my brain
Get on your knees and feel some shame
We can never see the same
I'll be damned to see the same

How can you claim
I've lost my off switch
That gleam of the new prize
Didn't pull you away
I've lost my off switch
And cause the change your eyes
How can I claim
The hate that drives me on
Hasn't pulled away
Only left to ponder on
