about

He's been pissing on my parade all my life, the saboteur.
He's been telling me I would never be worthy of respect, mr self-destruct
He's been whispering in my ear that cowardice was wisdom, the idiot
I've known him so long I can hardly tell where he ends and I begin, the great castrator.

But a good conman knows exactly how far he can go without putting his con at risk. And my saboteur made a fatal mistake when he cost me the best thing that ever happened to me.

lyrics

If he was made of flesh & bones
I’d smash his head with a brick
It would be so good to hear him moan
While I punch and tear and kick
But it’s my own face I’d have to wreck
For he lives in my skull, flows in my veins
He keeps my heart in a tight check
While he makes my tongue say words of pain

He’s the civil war inside my head
He’s the hemlock I keep drinking
He’s the tombstone in my bed
The lies unmasked that I keep believing
When my left hand wants to caress
My right hand is a clenched fist
My heart wants to give you access
My brain puts you on the blacklist

I want him dead, I want him out, I want him gone, should I cut my hand to stop it from hurting
I want him dead, I want him out, I want him gone, should I pluck out my eyes to stop them from weeping
I want him dead, I want him out, I want him gone, should I cut my tongue to stop it from lying
I want to live, I want to love, I want to hold you without his shadow so sickening

But this time, you’ve gone too far
This time Mister Bungle, it’s war
Maybe you finally lost your touch
This time you’ve cost me too much
This soul ain’t big enough for both of us
