lyrics

Make me believe that substances you abuse give you depth
You're inept cause everything you see, you focalize in Novocain dreams
The pain you try to mask it renders apathy

Kobefam Dad and Vi are on their knees
Begging you to help them ease the pressure, the pain, insanity's game
To them you are divine and all their faith is in your hands

David Azure Blue, look at you, you piece of shit
You're the one who started it
When Scarlet walked out, you knew without a doubt that you would
Inject a needle to dissect your broken heart

Violet Rose Belligerence
Patience was your greatest vice
Now you pop pills to get high
Instant release into disease, you make haste
What goes up must come down and fall into it's place

Both of you are trapped in suspended animation
Neither living nor dead, pupils dilated
David life escapes you, Violet life it drains you
Battle your addiction to improve your self-depiction

Both of you are trapped in suspended animation
Neither living nor dead, in the grey jaded
James he slipped away
I'm still the Zelig to this day
Mourning Star your bright light overshadowed gypsy nights

What do you see in him?
(1/2/3: Kobefam)
What do you see in him?
(1/2/3: so-called/wasted/lucid god)
What do you see in him that you don't see in [...]?
[1/2/3: greed/family/me]
(1/2: take me in/cleanse my sins)

What do you see in him?
What do you see in him?
What do you see in him that you don't see in yourself?
