The Last City - Insane (Live from Dallas) Lyrics

You want me to fight for you?
If that means fighting with myself, then I've risked my life for you
You wanna be forgiven
But you don't wanna know your crimes
Just the bliss of innocence

I don't know what you expect from me I'm not a damn thing like I was
Haven't I hurt you enough to convince you I've hurt you/do it just because?

You wanna trust me, except when I tell you that you can't,
Cause I'm nothing lovely, beneath this skin
I wanna be like you, want you to see yourself in me
And live in my nightmare

Smiles and beauty never fade in photographs
They hide in sheets while bodies try the same
Time becomes the fragrance of the frozen past
And haunts the hearts that live outside of frames

Would you mind if I break you, dethrone and disgrace you, in the name of Love?
You're my scarlet forgiveness, my merciful mistress, unjaded and stung

Would you mind if I kill you, betray and reveal you, in the name of Love?
You're my unholy scripture, enabler and victim, of all that I've done

I don't know what you expect from me I'm not a damn thing like I was
Haven't I hurt you enough to convince you I've hurt you/do it just because?

You wanna be enticing to an endless appetite
Darling, It's still lying if you lie to yourself

Let me ask you a question, let your yes be yes and, your silence the same
Is your back to the darkness, the same way your gods is, in heavenly shame?
Do you pray to disarm the mirror, and pose like the picture of all that you claim?
If you're as sick as your secrets, are you barely breathing and cold in your veins?

You want me to fight for you?
Well, who's your worst enemy?
