i feel so used — should i have killed you
when i wanted to before?
should've took a chance, took a stand
and walked out the door
did i inherit this fire?
was it passed down through
a story told to you
was i always this wild?
or did you make me lose
all sense of truth?
can't you see what you've done to me?
look how crazy i've become
look what you turned me into —
a demon
did i inherit this fire?
was it passed down through
a story told to you
was i always this wild?
or did you make me lose
all sense of truth?
come in and see
the freak
locked up in its room
batten the hatches
as it lights its matches
and burrows deeper in its tomb
did you walk over my grave?
i thought i felt you come in
and try to ruin me all over again
well isn't that just what you do?
so careless and cruel
now i am too
did i inherit this fire?
was it passed down through
a story told to you
was i always this wild?
or did you make me lose
all sense of truth?
so careless and cruel
