Brutality is all you see through your glare
It’s hardly conventional to be this far out
With a certainty that fiascos in your jeans
I’m a faded disaster, a bastard
So you say
This phrase is always recurring when
The trophy strenuously gained
Isn’t half as glittering
As glittering as you’d fancied
So you beat yourself
Relentlessly without hesitation
Beat yourself
Till you’re down, muscled out, completely senseless
Barren within
Senseless
Slowly but surely
Withering
Slight adjustments of your reign
That’s all it takes
I’m a faded disaster, a bastard
So you say
This phrase is always what
You lash yourself with
Relentlessly without hesitation
Lash yourself
Till you’re down, muscled out, completely senseless
Barren within
Senseless
Slowly but surely
Withering
Borrow my comb
And wash your pout
Comb that bitterness out
Spruce up your ragged appearance
Borrow my comb
And wash your pout
Comb all that bitterness out
Spruce up your ragged appearance
Appearance
Is all that counts
Appearance
Is all
