Lyrics

    How the fuck are we supposed to know
    when I'm a monster, the way
    you refuse to die?
    How the fuck are we supposed to know
    if we're in love or if we're pain
    
    I'm a tightrope walker
    I can't find my circus
    and I'm damaged beyond repair
    You're just a coffin of a girl I knew
    and I'm buried in you
    
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    no, no, no, no...
    
    Sometimes I dream I'm an exterminating angel
    a traveling executioner from heaven
    sent to give you the prettiest death I know
    call the grave and make our reservations
    
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    no...
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    You never said "I'll end up like this"
    no... 
    no, no, no, no, no...
    
    Are we in love or are we in pain?
    Are we in love or are we in pain?
    Are we in love or are we in pain?
    Are we in love or are we in pain?
    
    How the fuck are we supposed to know
    when I'm a monster, the way
    you refuse to die?
    How the fuck are we supposed to know
    if we're in love or if we're pain
    Why is my wound a front door to you?
    Am I my own shadow?
    Why is my wound a front door to you?
    Am I my own shadow?
