lyrics

I wanted none of this
But you gave it anyway
Malefaction at its finest
On a daily basis
What made me a target
Why did you decide
To break out of your shell
And sabotage mine

Day in, day out
I listened to you crow
Who could do anything
To stop this occurrence
I have my five wits
I was not blinded to
Exactly what you were doing
And you forced me to dissolve

Insolent nigh-eve-it-Tay
Don’t think I didn’t see
Exactly what you meant
Exactly what you did to me
I suppose this experience
Was not without gain
I stood as an object lesson
And disgraceful I remain

What act did I commit
That set your mind against me
Did I instigate offense
Or was I just an easy mark
Food for the taking
A hatchling in the nest
That you stepped on
So that you could fly

How many days
Did you force me to suffer
Groveling on my knees
Swallowing your vomit
Why was I unable
To stand up for myself
I let you eviscerate me
