lyrics

You looked into my eyes, I looked into your eyes, I looked into your soul.
All that I saw, was something so pure, for me to defile.
You picked up my hand, and I picked up your hand, and our skin met.
All tender and soft, right under my thumb, untouched by filth.
You started to speak, and I started to speak, then we fell silent.
If only you'd said, what I'd thought you would say, you'd be OK.
You went in for a kiss, I went in for a kiss, but our teeth bumped.
The first sign to stay away.

Your heart could bleed a river and that river could run long
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.
Your soul could shine and glitter and obliterate someone
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.

I told you that this, would be dead in the water, before it began.
But you said, don't be so negative, to me.
The history I have, that's not been documented, is sordid and sick.
And I can tell you're not the type to deal with it.
How many more times, do I just have to tell you, to walk away.
You're not the first and surely will not be the last.
Your life would be better, if you just forgot, that we ever met.
You can't un-forget your past.

Your heart could bleed a river and that river could run long
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.
Your soul could shine and glitter and obliterate someone
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.

This person who's talking, is not the same person, who you will love.
Your light grows dim, with every word you stutter and speak.
Months down the line, you'll be dying inside, if you make it that far.
The things I do distinctly lack in self control.
Run while you can, with your innocent youth, and don't waste your time.
Before I do, something that I, wont even regret.
As much as it hurts, it wont hurt half as much, in the long run.
You'll be the one that got away.

Your heart could bleed a river and that river could run long
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.
Your soul could shine and glitter and obliterate someone
But you're just meat to me, just meat to me.
