Codependent

It’s sickening! And it’s getting worse
My predicament is getting me immersed
With all damage done I’m throwing in the towel
I can’t carry on resorting to denial

My catalyst
My lovely narcissist
I died as we kissed
I’ve been a masochist

There’s nothing to salvage, nothing to save
No memories to nurture and nothing to say
We’ve learned to cover up the ugly truth
Ignorance and selfishness had ravished our youth

My catalyst
My lovely narcissist
I died as we kissed
I’ve been a masochist

Obsessively we’re good at lust
Perpetually we both suck at trust
(I want to hurt you so much I hurt myself instead
Just to make sure we’re still not dead)
No sacrifice is good enough
It’s getting worse, cuz we suck at love
(I want to get to the real you, but go ahead
Prove me wrong, pretend that you’ve never bled)

I’ve tried to drag you out into the sunlight
I thought I’ve shined on you but then I figured that I’m not bright enough
We’re sheer perfection when we pretend we’ve got nothing to hide
Both insecure and arrogant, cracking smiles and playing tough

Obsessively we’re good at lust
Perpetually we both suck at trust
(I want to hurt you so much I hurt myself instead
Just to make sure we’re still not dead)
No sacrifice is good enough
It’s getting worse, cuz we suck at love
(I want to get to the real you, but go ahead
Prove me wrong, pretend that you’ve never bled)

Let’s burn down all that we got left
To make sure we’re not dead
Let’s get us as high as we can get
While we’re codependent
Come prop me up when I get obscene
I’ll cut you up in your secret dream
Come sweat it out, it’s time to come clean
We’re codependent

Obsessively we’re good at lust
Perpetually we both suck at trust
(I want to hurt you so much I hurt myself instead
Just to make sure we’re still not dead)
No sacrifice is good enough
It’s getting worse, cuz we suck at love
(I want to get to the real you, but go ahead
Prove me wrong, pretend that you’ve never bled)

Let’s burn down all that we got left
Let’s get us as high as we can get
