A Haven to Cons Lyrics

The old man would fall down if you blew him over

But he's still a constrictor that gets around with his words when his legs stop working

He stopped liking me cause I was an adult with an opinion

I started pushing down the act of appeasing for the first time in my life

And they fought a lot harder cause I was able to put up a fight

And now I'm on the watch list for any sudden movements

"Back where you belong, kid"

"Back where you belong"

You cock, I fire

You can't hide these things from me

I don't work that way

I just don't work that way

You cock, I fire

You can't hide these things from me

I just don't work that way

I don't work that way

I threw away the keys to all the doors I knew

I burned the maps to the houses of those doors I knew

As the regret sets in and I tremor in panic

I - I will remember that no haven here

Felt any better than the barren society anymore

(Oh)

Grand goth collapsed to the floor

(Look)

Lipstick sigils mark the walls

Pastel pillar candles burn it all

The old man's a boa snake

Slithering on his belly

"Right where you belong, son"

"Right where you belong"

You cock, I fire

You can't hide these things from me

I don't work that way

I just don't work that way

You cock, I fire

You can't hide these things from me

I just don't work that way

I don't work that way

You cock, I fire

You can't hide these things from me

I don't work that way

I just don't work that way

You cock, I fire

You don't walk away me

I don't work that way

I just don't work that way
