You’re paranoid
I’m annoyed
At the little tears of blood
Running down my cheek
I cry red
But you haven’t read
Through my little trick
It’s an illusion
Just like my love for you
I’m a magician
And you fell for it
Fell for me
Too bad you couldn’t see
Past my smile
Past my eyes
Past my lies
Hello, goodbye
Go measure your sense of loss
Loss of love
Loss of pride
Loss of time

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
