To Be Cruel

dare I be cruel?

make something cry

deface a face

kick something helpless

a thing

a thing to erase

dare I be cruel?

look in the closet

the things in the wall

they'd speak of revulsion

they'd tell you all

all about pain

pain

they'd cry if they could

they'd cry if they could

under the driveway

look in the yard

the attic and cellar

look very hard for things

things all around

they hide and are still

the faces are blank

stifled their shrill stab of the voice

stab of the voice

stifled the lies

stifled the lies

I'm at an all time low

cry with me

cry with me

have you ever been cruel?

dare I be cruel?

pluck the legs of a spider

the spider is us

flounder together

the spider is us

we'd cry if we could

we'd cry if we could

the thing, it spins a web of lies

until a thing twice it's size

decides to be cruel

dare I be cruel?

all time low

I'm at an all time low
