Bloodveil - Antidote

So you're just the same: a fucking snake, defamed
You set me up by name just to point the blame
You wanted closure, so you took advantage of my fire
I just wanted to be free and cut from your desires
And every demon you sent my way felt unconquerable
But I'm always fucking accountable
And you'll never feel the same
Why should we stay if nothing is for certain
It's never forgotten
I'd rather close the curtain for good
A burning hate that sears our names into each other's throats
Gives us a perfect scapegoat
An imperfect antidote
You wanna say that I'm the instigator
When you never really gave me clear answers
About if you believed you burdened me
You fucking ruined everything
You've got some nerve saying I'm the aggressor
When we're both exposing ourselves to torture
You're always taking half-measures
Because you love to see me give in to the pressure
No sympathy behind your black eyes
I've lost years of my life in dead cries
We've both told lies that vary in size
You have hidden yourself from good light
Why should we stay if nothing is for certain
It's never forgotten
I'd rather close the curtain for good
A burning hate that sears our names into each other's throats
Gives us a perfect scapegoat
You've put the noose around my neck more than you'll care to admit
You've put the noose around my neck more than you'll care to admit
You're sick
You're just like me
You draw the lines across your wrists wondering what made you bleed
Is this for show
Or what we know
A brutal silence from the terror committed in human err
I almost wrote a note
Death is no antidote
I almost wrote a note
Death is no antidote
I almost wrote a note
Death is no antidote
I almost wrote a note
Death is no antidote
I wish I knew that the things I'd give to you would never be enough
No, I was never enough
I think I've been mistaken with how I've been behaving
Even though you made me sick for far too long
I'll never find a haven
The things I've loved are taken
But I hope to live to see you understand
Why should we stay if nothing is for certain
It's never forgotten
I'd rather close the curtain for good
A burning hate that sears our names into each other's throats
Gives us a perfect scapegoat
An imperfect antidote
