The worst kind of people. The deplorable, liar, fiend. All define The Reticent.
lyrics
I'm sick and tired of this,
forced to accept the lowest.
Pushed down to the bottom of the barrel,
every cut will go unnoticed.
Stuck in your selfish moment,
all you scream is "me, me, me"
but you cannot see, see, see
you're stuck in a lie that you conceived.
I'm sick and sore from this,
forced to expect the broken.
Not an ounce of truth was spoken,
all the lies and blood I choke in.
Why do you think I'm standing here?
Your slander won't just disappear.
Why do you lead them all astray?
Your lies, they don't just go away.
I've lived a million lives,
while you sold a million lies.
So much hate to give away,
I swear this is more than foreplay.
You are the reticent,
you are the weak,
and I'm being delicate,
when you punish me.
The evidence is evident that I have been so delicate and eloquent, heaven sent, to the negligent.
Adrenaline will pulse through my bloodstream.
The reticent, they make me want to scream.
Why did you force the fall
Push my back against the wall?
Fell back onto your knife,
you dig it in, 'cause it feels so nice.
I've lived a million lives,
you sold a million lies.
So much hate to give away,
I swear this is more than foreplay.
You are the reticent,
you are the weak,
and I'm being delicate,
when you punish me.
The evidence is evident that I have been so delicate and eloquent, heaven sent, to the negligent.
Adrenaline will pulse through my bloodstream.
The reticent, they make me want to scream.
