Open Book

How many people tried to help you open that door?

How many of those wondered what you had in store?

Find a way to their heart and then rip it out of their chest just like all the rest.

 

How many alibis do you think that you have now?

They knew someday they’d have to pay for it somehow. 

You made them actually believe every word that they say.

You can make crazy sound sane. 

 

Well I don’t mind sittin’ around lonely If you’re the only company I’d keep.

I know that I’d go blind if I’d looked at what you showed me

You’re an open book I never wanna read. 

 

What are you drinking when you’re not drinking blood of a soul?

What are you thinkin’ ‘bout when you bury them in that hole?

I never see how it starts I just get to see how it ends.

Maybe that’s where it begins. 

 

Over and over, again and again and again. 

It’s hard to see them after you’re done doing what you do to them. 

But you never pay the price and you’re still around taking the laughter from a clown. Leaving another heart in the lost and found. 

 

Well I don’t mind sittin’ around lonely If you’re the only company I’d keep.

I know that I’d go blind if I’d looked at what you showed me

You’re an open book I never wanna read.
