It's always the same
Our secrets we keep
Some people you meet, they surprise you
But it's never you
You flatter to deceive
With all your good qualities, you're disappointing
I never dare to turn my back on you
I haven't slept soundly since we met
You use up the things given to you til nothing's left
It's your ruthless streak
You don't know how to hide it
You've shown me what you are
Try to deny it
Taking what you need
Hollowing it out
No sympathy
In your ruthless streak
In a shadowland
Where nothing's as it seems
And all you show to me is so thin
I never dare to turn my back on you
I haven't slept soundly since we met
Things I care about mean nothing to you, they're in the way
It's your ruthless streak
You don't know how to hide it
You've shown me what you are
Try to deny it
Taking what you need
Hollowing it out
No sympathy
In your ruthless streak
