The Snake the Cross the Crown The Contortionist Lyrics:
as I begin to sink into this fate that I have
tried so hard to tread while you sit with your
magazines your cigarettes your apathy as we
continue downward into lukewarm discontent
descending side by side as retrospect and time
devour our thoughts and our long nights with such
civilized but brutal taste in suffering and self
disgrace your disappointment paints your eyes a
darker shade of brown and your poor excuses reek
of such expensive wine while my replies of
cowardice get molded into forgiveness for
everything you said and everything you did i have
failed to forgive you for either i tried but i

failed to forgive any aspects of either
fairweathered friend how could these eyes ever
forget those lustfull nights seeing your lips
pressed against theirs as i tried to forget i
tried but failed i begin to sink into this fate
that i have tried so hard to tread because
apparently i'm much too dense your much too tired
and oh so stressed ignoring all these words that i
am struggling to say so put down your pill bottles
put down your glass of wine put down all of your
magazines and look me in the eye and tell me that
your happy tell me this is what you wanted from me
because it's everything i have and everything i
can afford such curteous envy i tried but i failed
to forgive any aspects of either she never said
she wants it all i bet she does i bet she does
