Hallmark Fraud

Surprise surprise, so you're a fraud (frog, LOL)
You steal your lyrics from Hallmark cards
You copy paste, then change the words
Let your thesaurus do all the work
Are you really in love with the way she sings?
I know that's bullshit, like everything
That comes out of your mouth
They still believe in your fake passion but I have found:
All that charm and all that wit you chop it up and recycle it
But you're saying the same things over and over
Feigning that you know how to create
And I suppose you never stopped
'Cause you assumed that you'd never get caught
But now your hands are a sanguine red
And as for what is inside your head:
You think strutting around in your sister's clothes
Gives you sovereignty over this whole coast
As king of an art, as king of an age
Well I hate to rain on your parade
(Chorus)
I won't rat you out my friend
I'll spare the life that you pretend
'Cause I know what it's like to be found out
To be where you are now
(Chorus, WOO)

Deja Vu

I've got everything, I don't need a second tomb to make that stop
Still, I'm cutting ties again so my imaginary friend can take me under
The silhouettes look better but they're so menacing
I've got everything but I'm quite precarious
Oh because the way you know you're doomed is when you start to see in deja vu
And half the time I do it 'cause I'm used to being a wreck
Can't wait to fall into the fire
I took a holiday from the gaudy chain-link fence that I still crave
Can't find a foothold yet; I'm falling through the dark despite mass opinion
And as your silhouette approaches it thins out wonderfully
I've got a lot but it is sitting on the edge

In sweeping up the fallen sky
I swear your bones have turned to wires
I can’t watch this degeneration no more
My god
You’re dried up of affection
In the most whitewashed section
Of a sinking town, and you’re sinking too
My god
I hate to think of what’s to come
I guess you were right about this Fall
My god
