Drop me to my knees I need someone to show me where me life will lead Want someone to take hold of my heart So that maybe it won't bleed And I want to thrust my all into a dream I want to need. Pity me, kind stranger For you know not who I am Or what I shall become But your ignorance, it warms my heart And I'm yearning for someone So much that it doesn't matter who Or why The world can be so cruel Help me make it die Push me backwards into the past Back then I could believe you When you promised it wouldn't last It was beautiful to find faith Even though I would never know you But I would scrape my soul for happiness For something new to show you Someone take pride in me And credit yourself for my accomplishment I feel so close to you it brings tears to my eyes I can almost believe these ridiculous lies And I will Because oh yes, you truly are at my side What need have I to hide? Pity me For a creature of such pathetic discontent such as I Have lost touch with the aesthetic relevance In the crumbling world in which I dwell My dreams have barred the doorways My heart is now my cell And if only... Sigh. Pity me, For I cannot do it myself Nor anything... But tell me that's okay And like a ritual A precarious routine I'll lock away my identity behind a movie screen It's the least I can do For you who pities me I shall become what you want me to be... Alone-- So you have someone to pity, And I'll make you forget your pathetic nature Your loss of aesthetic treasure It's my role It's my goal The desecration of my very soul Take it over, because I know you question My ability, as well as my lust For control... Take it over Take me over And find something new to pity All over again. What a pity.Birth sign: Not entered
