soulscraper - Silenced from Elegant Knives by soulscraper

8. Silenced
Music & lyrics by Wolfgang Rhein

Why does it matter that I simply somehow like just what you do
in all kinds of wasted ways and stress the perfect spots you always knew
to push things perfectly, sweet skills in chasing me
into the deadest dead end street is
where you’ve got me strenuously
To understand your brilliancy just makes me feel ashamed
Your spark of genius-like arsenious burns its unresisted ways… in me.

Take my haltered hand-me-downs

If what we are would be a book, we should’ve judged it by its cover
instead of desperately assay a complete lifetime to discover
what this was meant to be, time is up and so are we
and every try we’ve ever tried has been performed… pathetically.

Take my haltered hand-me-downs
Leave me haltered
Eternity, alterity
Enjoy your wrecking spree

I can’t express myself without shootin’ everybody down
I kept on tryin’, while you were lyin’, cut me down, silenced out
Why has just everything that deals with you to be so
complicated, overrated what’s been stated…my own letdown?

Take my haltered hand-me-downs
Leave me haltered
Eternity, alterity
Enjoy your wreck… enjoy your wrecking spree!
