The Galentines - Prophet Lyrics

You call my emotions collateral
The damage you've done, is it what you want?
In every direction sporadically pull me
You're tearing me down, is it just for fun?

Hands in your pocket you act like you're holy
A false god, a prophet, the lies that you told me
Led me to believe, now I'm down on my knees
Come on, show me some mercy

I give you my all and it's tiring
I know you see how I'm suffering
What would it take for your time and your patience?
Watching you break down, you say you're complacent

If you wanted to have me you've got me, I'm waiting
What you desire is here for the taking
A pawn in your pieces, a path I can't see
To distorted divinity

I want you to love me from a mile away
I want you to be mine, but just for today
I want what I want and I want it my way
Yeah, that's what you say

A false god, a prophet, he led me astray
He told me he'd be there, but he didn't stay
Nothing serious, he just wanted to play
And I got caught in the fray

I want you to love me from a mile away
I want you to be mine, but just for today
I want what I want and I want it my way
Yeah, that's what you say

A false god, a prophet he led me astray
He told me he'd be there, but he didn't stay
Nothing serious, he just wanted to play
And I got caught in the fray
