Lovely Bones Video (MV)

In a life so full of catechisms, You got me rapping with em
Open handed slaps to all the rapture that you captured
In a mason jar, freemason, play the part, shatter hearts
Scatter parts, broken is the morning star, every shard
Magic tricks, show em off, is this your card?
Drinking cognac and I am pissing art
Thinking hard, disregard
The ugliness of sounds
The ugly sounds, like a starling falling to the ground
It's so profound and prophetic, know I love the way you said it
With hidden intent, bat those lashes, staring back at me
And giving consent, I don't regret how far it went
Or how I left it, you were the sacrificial beast
You were my precious

This is the way that I am, the way I see the light
Forever bright, forever focused
Reveal the monster that you linger beside
And know I keep him inside
The devil's inside

I loosely change the way I think to loosen up this noose I made
The shade of weeping willows keeps the sun from ever creeping in
I'm talking to my shadows and reflections in the gallows
Gotta swallow inhibitions and commit my life to prowess
And these crimes of passion, I'm just a man of action
Overacting every twisted fantasy, so underhanded
Understand that Hyde dwells in Jekyll
It's the dying of the rose petals, trying to escape
Elude, aloof, the bones I break with metal
And when these women scream...mmmmm...it plays like symphonies
A lullaby that gets inside, like tinkering the piano keys
Resembling the teeth of the creature that's beneath my surface
My words are lip service, to help engage the nervous.

This is the way that I am, the way I see the light
Forever bright, forever focused
Reveal the monster that you linger beside
And know I keep him inside
The devil's inside

I wear this cast made of plaster and kiss these skulls with hammers
Forget where my manners have gone
It doesn't matter, leave you lifeless
Life is shattered, crisis, gag you into silence
Your compliance puts you quickly
In the center of my iris, leave you eyeless
You cant see the real me, the real things
So I blow, these smoke rings, so carefree, to ceilings
And tarnish everything you've ever learned about compassion
Wild animal arriving to a human interaction, I'm attracted to the
Color of your blackened little breathing pattern, pulse is beating
Nothing, nothing, nothing, then your spirit shatters
Paths to heaven mapped for you, but never was the type to follow
Pose you like a paper crane, like Ichabod in sleepy hollow

This is the way that I am, the way I see the light
Forever bright, forever focused
Reveal the monster that you linger beside
And know I keep him inside
The devil's inside
