[Verse 1]
Your tongue told me truths that no one will believe
Of a rock the size of Texas with tricks up its sleeve
Oh, it's coming somewhere to earth
Doesn't really matter where 'cause it's still gonna hurt
So let's make the best of the time that we have
I can see that you are by the shortness of that skirt
And the way you walk the ally-ways of this boulevard
And I'm right there by your side
Just soaking in the glares of a thousand staring eyes
[Verse 2]
But I'll savor each glance, I'll adore the attention
That you cleanse your ego by daily bathing in
I won't hold you back, no, I shall not be selfish
I am perfect being the impartial tag-along
I kill you with praise, with words of ambition
For like the truest of loves
I'm destined to set you
[Verse 3]
Free amongst these villagers, these sorry common folk
They know nothing of the coming of the calming words you spoke
Watch them scuttle over differences
The unimportant follies of the misunderstood
Their bias drunken narratives
I'm so tired of being understood
I'm so tired of being understood
I'm so tired of being underneath the curl of a question mark
[Breakdown]
So call it like it is!
No more bullshitting
Call it like it is!
Be, oh, so brutal with your honesty
Go call the pigs, go call the pigs!
You can't prove a damn thing
Call it like it is!
So you can help me find a way out
[Bridge]
Find a way out of this
And I'll show you life like you've never seen it
Find a way out of this and I promise you'll be gracious
For he, who tells a lie will solemnly, swear he's not scared to die
So laugh in his face because he's a fake
And when that day comes you watch him shake
Oh, he'll, shake
[Chorus]
So color me red, like blood, just for the hell of it
You won't hear a thing from me
And smile as we make love for what will be the last
Time before we leave
[Chorus]
So color me red, like blood, just for the hell of it
(Promise you won't feel a thing)
You won't hear a thing from me
(won't feel a thing)
And smile as we make love for what will be the last
(Promise you won't feel a thing)
Time before we leave
(won't feel a thing)
[Outro]
So you're only fighting fire with fire
You're only fighting fire with fire
'Cause you're only fighting fire with fire
You're only fighting fire with fire
Fuck this, let's just fight fire with fire
