survival

nothing seems to please you
he like to tease you
you still believe what he says
rewarded for your weakness
makes it easy to go back
just to face his next attack

mistake his greed for love
you thought that he might share
but he's selfish just like you
and it may as well be true
it tingles when he hurts you
alive inside a bottle for survival

when your mind is cold and clear
defending pride and beauty
only then do you really live
make it make the tension ease and flow
the easy give and take just leaves you cold
