Chaucer Creeps

I'm gettin' creepier by the minute and it's all downhill from here 
Humbug fills my tiny brains as I hum away the fear 
of ignorance ignoring ignorant me 
and a million tons of chocolate ice cream

  can't begin to placate the yawning loss 
  of losing my sweet Violet again 
  I warned you I'd horde you 
  You belong here with me

Bathe in anorexia and heroin eyeshadow 
Spin like a scratchy yard-sale 45 
Open and close your lipstuck puppet mouth 
Sing and dance and lie like you're alive 

  Clinging again but I think I deserve to 
  Thinking again of ways to betray you 
  Drinking again I know what I promised you 
  Singing again I know what that does to you

Sing and dance and lie like you're alive
Sing and dance and lie like you're alive
Sing and dance and lie like you're alive
Sing and dance and lie...

O, ye of little cloth and even less faith 
Why do you insist on tampering with fate?
Halfway between divinity and a fall from grace
You walk on flaming coals just to see her face 

  Your bitter song rings out like churchbells in the morn 
  Your eyes are ever shining  Your face is never worn 
  How can you continue your half-mad belief 
  In the never-yielding face of misery and grief?

It's bad  It's smoky and bad 
Worse than you remember  So bad I forget 
To breathe this rancid time away and fight the rising light 
(Hell, at this point, I'd even miss the fights if we'd had any) 

  Clinging again but I think I deserve to 
  Thinking again of ways to betray you 
  Drinking again I know what I promised you 
  Singing again I know what that does to you

Beautiful and pathetic  You intrigue and enthrall 
Misguided and misplaced  You falter and you fall 
Decades Hours Minutes Second place trophies on the wall 
Waiting in oblivion  Waiting for your call 

  I warned you  I'd horde you 
  I warned you...
  I warned you  I'd horde you 
  I warned you...
