You paint the picture of a broken home
To everyone who calls you on the phone
You tell them I'm the monster in the dark
While carving out my spirit spark by spark
And they all offer comfort for your pain (ooh-ooh) While I am
standing frozen in the rain
You tear me down just to build your throne
So you can cry and never be alone
You sell my ruin for a crowd's embrace With tears of triumph
on your lovely face
(yeah, yeah)
I smile and play the part they think is true
To keep the peace and save the face of you
But behind the doors when the theater ends
You laugh at how you fooled your dearest friends
Is my destruction worth the sympathy?
Do you feel happy when they pity me?
(no, no, no)
You tear me down just to build your throne
So you can cry and never be alone
You sell my ruin for a crowd's embrace With tears of triumph
on your lovely face
Just to look good...
Just to get attention... (shhh)
