Rot
Everything around has this shiny look
Everything exactly like they wrote the book
Delicious like a meal from your favourite cook
And under it the smell of rot
Once again deceiving me
They’ve been telling me a truth that never really was
And as far as I can see
It’s just been used for their own cause
And all I ever got
Sickness by the smell of rot
Everything around has this gleaming glint
Hidden underneath this smooth white skin
I can see it all as a great misprint
Covering up the signs of rot
Once more deluding me
They’ve been showing me a truth that never really was
And as far as I can see
It’s just been used for their own cause
And all I ever got
Sickness by the smell of rot
Again I’m taking in
The words come beating
Leaving everything in a terrible mess
Won’t be making it, wasn’t meant to fit
Turning me in a little bit less
You’ve been misleading me
You’ve kept giving me a truth that never really was
And as far as I can see
It’s just being used for your own cause
And all I ever got
Sickened by the smell of rot
You’re Covering up the signs of rot
You’re stinking from the stench of rot
