Swallowed Whole
Left in the open
Ripe for the taking
This is dangerous
Exploited by strangers
Still you feel in control
Left in the open
Unable to hide
You have spoken the words
But are these your beliefs
No hope here
You'll find no relief
Surely you didnt think
You could just wash it away
You play in the darkness
And pray in the day
Who do you think you are
Where do I even begin
Each and every lie
Comes out in the end
That wicked mouth
How far will it take you
When beauty fades
I wonder where you will end up
Hold back your hair
One day you'll come up for air
When you do
Know i wont be there
Remember the taste
As hot karma slides down your throat
This is what you wanted
This is what you chose
