Please Stop Loving Me

Please stop loving me

I’ve dreamed of a dead poem
Breathing heavy in contradiction
The words that mourn together
The words that bleed blood and tears

The words that are taken away from me

Please stop loving me
I’m not your savior
My flesh and blood won’t fill your emptiness

Please stop loving me
I’m not the one you see when you roll your eyes back

Glorify me
Idolize me
That’s all you need to put me at risk
Patronize me
Because you’ll need to crucify me
My death will justify you
Demonize and wipe me out

Glorify me
Idolize me
That’s all you need to put me at risk
Patronize me
Because you’ll need to crucify me
My death will justify you
Deep down inside, I’ve always known it
That you will take these words away from me

Please stop loving me
I’m not your savior
My flesh and blood won’t fill your emptiness

Please stop loving me
I’m not the one you see when you roll your eyes back

A god always needs a devil to exist
To keep them alive, you became your own devil

My corpse is the holy object on your altar of mirrors

Please stop loving me
I’m not your savior

Please stop loving me
Please don’t love me anymore
My flesh and blood won’t fill your emptiness

Please stop loving me
I’m not the one you see when you roll your eyes back

A god always needs a devil to exist
To keep them alive, you became your own devil
