"Break-Up Artist"

Breaking hearts you never really held
After time do the disappointed faces start to meld
Together, never, truly together
The tether, weathers
Your greatest endeavor

You're using shades
And colors that were once betrayed
In your own skin, they're deeper in
Beneath the surface
Perpetuate
Till you feel safe
Until you've fulfilled your purpose

Saying words you never really meant
Do you still pretend that you're the innocent
Transgressions, pressing, these unlearned lessons
Confessions, undressing
Just another session

You're using shades
And colors that were once betrayed
In your own skin, they're deeper in
Beneath the surface
Perpetuate
Till you feel safe
Until you've fulfilled your purpose
