"Are you here to confuse me?" 

Woman I'll give you the grand tour 
There's no reason for you to look closer but you do so I show you 
It ain't pretty here now but it will be 
One day I promise when the sun rays are honest 
I chip away at the tint on the windows 
Stain on the glass it's a pain in the ass 
I scrape and I scratch 'til my arms grow weary 
Meanwhile I warn you not to stand near me 
I think I built the fence a little late 
The deamons were already in now they can't escape 
I been toe to toe with most of em' though 
As a whole they must parish in order for me to grow 
Huddled in the gloomy little cracks that they inhabit 
They pass away the day I deactivate my habits 
Each one gets buried in the back yard 
In tiny little graves marked only by a black scar 
Kindly watch your step 
The silence isn't finished being awkward yet 
Trophies lay in the basement to stay safe 
Today's mistakes are in a lighted trophy case though 

And I want you to know 
I only invited you 'cause I ain't thought you would show 
But I'll be damned if you ain't grab my hand 
And presented yourself on the threshold of the Heartland 

You'll notice antique swordes adorn the walls 
They're really not there for decoration at all 
I saved them shits from old relationships 
And I swing'em at you later if you stay in the mix 
Don't you realise nobody's really been inside here 
Since it was last drenched in dried tears 
Decorating was a senseless idea 'cause only the blind lonely prince resides 
Here 
We dine here on a balanced diet 
Ego when it's loud self hatred when it's quiet 
Inside the castle this is what the life is 
Sign here after you read the fine print 
It's not much but all of it's yours 
Take great caution if you wanna explore 
Watch your head when you opening the doors 
And always remember that the choice was yours 

"Are you here to confuse me"
"Are you here to confuse me"
"Are you here to confuse me"
"Are you here to confuse me"
Are you breathing?
