Pest V4 (demo5) (Patreon)

Maybe I’m overthinking

But you didn’t try your best

The voices you wielded

Turned you into a pest

Suffocating each moment

Killing her slowly

How long did it take?

Were you ever so worthy?

Your scarlet wrists

Twinkle as they clot

A paltry payment

For the malice you sought

—

You’ve been such a pest

Oh, you’re such a pest

Yes, you’re only a pest

Moved your mountains over pins and needles

Sewing so saintly, your sinister evil

Such a pest

Oh, you’re such a pest

Yes, you’re only a pest

May you never once sleep with the price on your head

The knife you had brandished won’t wait till you’re dead

—

Oh it’s nothing

It’s only borrowed time

When I see you smile

I think that I might die

—

And I know that you're still me

But look what's happened to us

If only you were never born

Would your friends still spill their guts?

Should I play into the stereotype I made of myself?

Or is a moment in time what I’m doomed

What’s the point of saving the world or yourself

When the greatest villain is you?
