Opulence (Has Taken Lives) Songtext
von Delaire the Liar

Pale as rain, sometimes empty as a parking space
Sometimes translucent, sometimes the same
Sometimes expressive as a sheer drop, cliff face

I′d been warned about the water, never let too much in
I've been told to only carry my arms width
I suggested that they keep their mouths shut
Until my stomach lining split and its contents spilled
My ruined muscles threw fits until
My blood didn′t bother placating them
Left again, screaming

As I collected like rainfall, bending in the middle
Dripped slowly on an unforgiving floor


As unforgiving as me, I still think of my body heat
I have watched it leave,
I have been succeded by someone more deserving
I just wanted mine, I just wanted something shiny
That kind of thought will get you killed, I was quickly reminded

It'll get you killed
You'll never go the distance
You never listened, you never listened, you never listen, now listen

You won′t warm up, chest full of diamonds
You′re not enough,
You're not enough, your lines aren′t straight enough
It'll get you killed
You′ll never go the distance
You never listened, you never listened, you never listen, now listen

You won't warm up, chest full of diamonds
You′re not enough, you're not enough,
Your lines aren't straight enough cut
