I'd Rather Drown

Thanks for treating me like every boy you meet

So please come in and take a seat

Here's the part when I learn, and you will teach

On how to treat people like a piece of meat

I want a genuine, not a replica

Lethal medicine, a pin to the cornea

A sight for sore eyes

While other guys consume the lie, I'll run and hide

No doors exist on my fortress

The only entrance is the one I bear

You're nothing more than a temptress

I fell victim to a heartless snare

Burn the bitch down

I never will cross that bridge again

I cannot trust you easily

Or think that I'm the only one

I never let people in, and I have you to remind me why

So baby burn the bitch down

I never will cross that bridge again

I'd rather drown

I'm the master of construction

Because I'm building walls like it's my occupation

If you portray a liar, I'll shut you out without hesitation

It's an art form of consummate skill

Of how she plays them like the pawn

Making boys drool at her will

Like Pavlov to the dogs

No doors exist on my fortress

The only entrance is the one I bear

You're nothing more than a temptress

I fell victim to a heartless snare

Burn the bitch down

I never will cross that bridge again

I cannot trust you easily

Or think that I'm the only one

I never let people in, and I have you to remind me why

So baby burn the bitch down

I never will cross that bridge again

I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather

Drown me, slit my throat so lightly

Pick me up and drop me right into my grave

And now I wonder, sit alone and ponder

Should I even bother, when I see your face?

The itch I couldn't scratch

But I'd come crawling back but now

I'd much rather, rather, rather, rather, rather

I'd rather burn the bitch down

I never will cross that bridge again

I cannot trust you easily

Or think that I'm the only one

I never let people in, and I have you to remind me why

So baby burn the bitch down, I never will cross that bridge again

Go ahead and burn the bridge right down, it's what you wanted

Burn the bridge right down

I'm not the only one, not the only one

So baby burn the bitch down, I never will cross that bridge again

I'd rather drown
