lyrics
The casual observer, the voyeuristic lens
The sight of God, the eyes of cool clinicians
You, pulled apart and sorted through
Repositioned, pinned, and put on view
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
The avaricious visits, deficious recompense
Little sighs, devised to stifle your indifference
Long silences in dusky rooms
Stale water for the hyacinth blooms
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
Such pedestrian pleasures! The measured bêtes noires
Peering through the cracks and tapping at your doors
So timidly, it seems that
Even your dreams are somewhat anemic
Rearranged, you slip into the street
Beneath the precious few
Stars that remain and you relax:
You see it’s just a comedy in four grim acts
You, pulled apart and sorted through
Repositioned, pinned, and put on view
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
The sight of God, the eyes of cool clinicians
You, pulled apart and sorted through
Repositioned, pinned, and put on view
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
The avaricious visits, deficious recompense
Little sighs, devised to stifle your indifference
Long silences in dusky rooms
Stale water for the hyacinth blooms
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
Such pedestrian pleasures! The measured bêtes noires
Peering through the cracks and tapping at your doors
So timidly, it seems that
Even your dreams are somewhat anemic
Rearranged, you slip into the street
Beneath the precious few
Stars that remain and you relax:
You see it’s just a comedy in four grim acts
You, pulled apart and sorted through
Repositioned, pinned, and put on view
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
In an attempt to earn love
All the despicable things you did
