Less Than Slash Three - I Am King

Bury me inside your heart

Let the blood run through your veins

Make me your work of art

Let the canvas overflow as you paint

I’ve always been the mistake

The second thought

Leftover on the plate

How could I be so naive?

I’m just an oversight

I try with all my might

To get over it

But the feeling never leaves

I just want you to love me

Cause I can’t love myself

No matter how much I fill the void with sound

I’ve never felt so unclean

Collecting dust up on the shelf

You’re across the universe and I’m in hell

Let your hair down so I can make my way into the clouds

When the dreams start coming undone

Bleed into the daylight

I’ve been fighting the addiction

Itching for the fix

I swore I’d never let myself get caught up in somebody else

But you broke me

And I’m helpless in the clinch

As life delivers another kick

I can’t stop feeling so sick

I just want you to love me

Cause I can’t love myself

No matter how much I fill the void with sound

I’ve never felt so unclean

Collecting dust up on the shelf

You’re across the universe and I’m in hell

It’s all so typical

When did I become this cynical?

You made me this way

Stuck here with the guilt

The useless remorse of

What could have been

What should have been

Before you chose him

Before you cut me open

I just want you to love me cause I can’t love myself no matter how much I try

I’ve never felt so ugly

The mirror breaks itself

You’re across the universe

And I’m in the middle of nowhere

I’m far away from home

Where I should be

I’m so ugly

I’m so unclean
