Matilda is Dead, Long Live Matilda!

from Demo by Onsind

lyrics

There's dirty dishes in the sink, and there's a virus in the air, and I've never drank a coffee this reluctantly but it just tastes so fucking bitter when your there. And I see you use that knife to slit her throat, and drag her fucking body down the hall, and I know you're going to leave her there to bleed to death then order me to move her from the house once and for all.

And I haven't felt this way in years so unprepared, and behind the raucous laughter I'm just scared.

This represents a total lack of effort on my part. So reconcile yourself with the fact that this was hopeless from the start.

I had assumed that this would settle down, but that assumption was the product of my optimistic heart. It seems abusrd to me that you'd think that dramatic, when everything you do is scripted, everyone else plays their part. So here I find myself again, my reactions predetermined, so absorbed in this old role. I see the fire but I can't feel the heat so I'll just sit and freeze, this constant conflict, destroys my soul.

And I haven't felt this way in years so unprepared, and behind the raucous laughter I'm just scared.

This represents a total lack of effort on my part. So reconcile yourself with the fact that this was hopeless from the start.

So take this vote off of me. Cause I can't use it anymore, and what's the point when people in your frame of mind they own the country, they own it all.

So when I break into your house, and spray my name in ten feet letters on the wall, when you come home, will you still mean it? Did you ever really mean it at all?
