I suppose that's how the story goes
when you've got too much of them to tell

I am the one who suffers your ignorance
But when it hurts, you take it out on me
You are the beast inside my paradise
My burden, my demon set free

You are the salt in my wounds
You heat the pins and stab them in
Then you leave me like the others
And I end up alone like I began

It all went up in flames
and my life has gone to hell
I suppose that's how the story goes
when you've got too much of them to tell

I am the one who suffers your ignorance
But when it hurts, you take it out on me
You are the beast inside my paradise
My burden, my demon set free

You are the salt in my wounds
You heat the pins and stab them in
Then you leave me like the others
And I end up alone like I began
