Assassinating Pity

Assassinating Pity
Assassinating pity
is stabbing you with care
in tantalizor-city
obligation shams dare
Assassinating pity
your stab wounds are pretty
assassinating pity
you're called a day
Assassinating pity is riding you down
in tantalizor-city - obligation shams dare
assassinating pity - assassinating pity
in tantalizor-city
Accept the present – it's past your way
your way of asking is called a day
assassin-attracter – we know a prey
accept the present – it's past your day
It's never too late
it's never too late
assassinating pity
begs you to stay
Assassinating pity
is stabbing you with care
in tantalizor-city
follow our way
Don't give us reason
we never consider
Assassinating pity
is riding guineas down
in tantalizor-city
as we tell you to pray
Assassinating pity
grief is never pretty
assassinating pity
in tantalizor-city
Doomed to stay in a never-bating pity
choose the appliance yourself
Assassinating pity is soothing guineas down
in tantalizor-city – just to hold you up
assassinating pity is what you ordered
assassinating pity – penetrating care
