[Lyric] Hex (Corporate Hearts)

My body is decades ahead of my brain
And seconds away from giving out on me
The thrill is gone and replaced with an ache
So dull it could lull me to permanent sleep

And you are an angel, you are a saint
But I gave up in grade school on the Catholic faith
And gave myself over to evil and hate
As you pray for my soul, I’m out searching for prey

This summer weather you love is boiling my blood
And all my good intentions have spoiled in the sun
I recoil at the sight of happy people having fun
Give me a cooler full of anything strong that’s big enough
To stuff my body into when I’m done

I’m your increasingly unwanted guest
A lost soul you wish you never found
You saw something in me and brought me home
Now I am here to put a hex upon your house
And all these love songs you play burrow into my brain
Sever my nerves and disconnect my heart from my veins
I’m in pain at the thought of having any real feelings for anyone
All I want’s the drone and drag of going numb
To creep into my crawling skin as I wait for night to come

I’m your increasingly unwanted pet
You couldn’t bear to watch them put down
You tried to save me and give me a home
Now I am here to put a pox upon your house

Hope springs eternal from a hole in your
Head is a smoking inferno of terror and
Dreading the day when reality finally seeps
In through the cracks in the floor
And crawls into your
Better judgment said
You should’ve left when you still had the chance

I’m your increasingly unwanted pest
But you just can’t bring yourself to move out
You try to pretend that I don’t exist
But I am here to bring a plague upon your house
