lyrics

THE KISS AND THEN THE KICK
And so I stop to reminisce,
How did it come to this?

Call the mourners, pallbearers too.
It makes no sense, how you behaved,
Your character is split.
All the ideals you contradict,
The kiss and then the kick.

The fall from grace,
The aftertaste
when it rears its ugly face.
You pushed too hard to see me break
And just to find out how much I could take.
With this ring and with this frown
I weigh thee down.
I wave and let you drown.
You let me down,
My hands were bound
But you let your hounds drag me to the ground.

Is evil really who you are or something that you do?
Well maybe I am fragile too, as insecure as you?
And if I ask too much of you, well what’s a girl to do
With such a heart that needs to pour until there is no more?

My hands were bound
But you let your hounds drag me to the ground.
With this ring and with this frown
I weigh thee down.
I wave and let you drown.
You let me down,
And how I hate the aftertaste,
The fall from grace when it rears its ugly face.
You pushed too hard to see me break
And just to find out how much I could take.

Those evil things you do
Show me the worst in you.
The side you can’t suppress,
Suspicious and obsessed.
I kneel in my red dress
Oh lord I must confess
I am not virgin flesh.
Can I still take you test?

So if you’ve finished
I’ll say my piece.
Don’t preach to the deceased.
I was defenceless, I have no shame.
I know I’m not to blame.
Had your tricks hidden up you sleeves.
You couldn’t let me leave.
We couldn’t steer to common ground,
The questions wore me down.
