Diamir - Behind The Façade Lyrics

Another moment, another betrayal
Another traitor, you never can tell
You give your life, your declining soul
But they just cut and run
Suppress the anger, lock it up inside
Who will remain - be it Jekyll or Hyde
You stand there seething but just smiling away
Humility is at bay
But then, when alone in the night
It comes to you in a flash
That try and try as you might
They will always
Cut you, kick you, kill you
And tear you up inside
Cuz you're there to be used and abused - don't you see it
Punch you, push you, pull you
And rob you of all of your joy
Cuz it's them - and it's you
And for now you're just a broken toy
To break the habit, what can you do
You try to change but you're thinking askew
To make them see the error of their ways
This burden on you weighs
Thoughts of hurting them begin to gestate
To make them suffer would attempt to placate
Will you cross the line and into the fray
Once you get there, forever you'll stay
So, time to choose...live or die
Perpetuate this lie
To confront, or to refrain? - cuz you know they'll always
Burn you, bleed you, bruise you
Oooh tear you up inside
Cuz they see you as a means to an end - that's all, they'll
Shoot you, gut you, hang you
And cut you out of the deal
And the harder you try, the more you know that they don't care how you feel
Cut you, kick you, kill you
And tear you up inside
Cuz you're there to be used and abused - don't you see it
Punch you, push you, pull you
And cut you out of the deal
And now the trumpeters have called
Open the seventh seal
