Every little bit

It's funny how a morning turns a love to shame. Disguised and disfigured. and you thought I tasted like rain. There`s nothing here but a shadow. nothin here. Now you know.There's nothin here but the shadow, and now you know. I spit, I spit in the eye. I tear, I tear out my heart. and I scatter the bits. I stay unseen by the light. I stay untold by the truth. I'm sold by a lie. By this I am able in all of my travels. To make these memories quit. But tonight I clearly recall every little bit.

I can chew like a cannibal. I can yell like a cat. I even had you believing that I really really like it like that. But there was never a moment. Not a moment. Now you know. Now you know. Now you know you never got within a hundred million miles of my soul. I spit, I spit in the eye. I tear, I tear out my heart. And I scatter the bits. I stay unseen by the light. I stay untold by the truth. I'm sold by a lie. By this I am able in all of my travels. To make these memories quit. But tonight I clearly recall every little bit.

You left open the window till the morning. And the winter walked in. Reality fired her wooden bullet. Splintered under our skin. They say I'm walking on freedom. This is freedom. Now I know. NowI know I still don't blame you for leaving, baby. It's cold living with ghosts. I spit, I spit in the eye. I tear, I tear out my heart. and I scatter the bits. I stay unseen by the light. I stay untold by the truth. I'm sold by a lie. By this I am able in all of my travels. To make these memories quit. But tonight I clearly recall every little bit.
