Script as a Hook (Alt Rock)

You flood the line with forty files Midnight dirges venom in verse Called it love but it came with a leash Pulled me close just to practice your speech You dressed up damage and wore it with pride Wrapped your scars in valentines You play the prophet can't name your own vice Always preaching pain like it’s precise Who taught you that obsession is devotion When did I sign up to stop you from sinking Who's honest who's haunted who's hiding who's cruel Ain’t love if your kindness has a script as a hook Was it love or just a habit you refused to lose You dressed up damage and wore it with pride You built a house then dimmed every room You called it safe then tightened the noose You lit the fuse I watched it blow Each offering came with a curse You hoard each silence like a grudge collector You called it fate but I saw the edits But I never asked to be your muse You watched me quiet thought it meant yes But I was mourning under all that mess You made a god of your distress Then begged for worship what’s that confess If I stopped replying would you vanish or explode Did you need truth or just your own reflection Who's bleeding who's feeding who's needing control Ain’t love if your kindness has a script as a hook Do you see me or just need someone to console You dressed up damage and wore it with pride You built a house then dimmed every room You called it safe then tightened the noose You lit the fuse I watched it blow Did it hurt or did you just spin the stage Were you scripting sorrow just to hear your name Do you love me or the loyalty you leeched Did you want love or just a stage Who's twisting who's helpless who's digging through truth Ain’t love if your kindness has a script as a hook Who's afraid of the silence now that I’ve moved You dressed up damage and wore it with pride You built a house then dimmed every room You called it safe then tightened the noose You lit the fuse I watched it blow You lit the fuse I watched it blow
