lyrics

Dread starts to grip her when she hears his footsteps
Heavy with rage, they make the floorboards creak
Huddled in fear from her once beloved
Death floods in when her head hits the wall, he says . . .

“I want to talk about our relationship
I want to talk about our future
I’ve been out, I’ve got a buzz going
I’ve had a few, and I’m coming over.”

These are the best minds in America
These are the hardest bodies in sport
These are the most privileged kids in Maryland
This is sensational, this means ratings
This is glamor, these kids had promise
This is scandal, their families prominent
This is fiction, a soap opera narrative
This is real life, her blood’s on the sheets

“I want to talk about our relationship
I want to talk about our future
I’ve been out, I’ve got a buzz going
I’ve had a few, and I’m coming over.”

Lockjaw mouths, still and silent
Guard kept up like an all-star goalie
No reflection from the culture that birthed them
Away from mirrors, they deflect their gaze
So unabated they continue their torment
So unfazed, they live their lives
So entitled, they have no perspective
All of their victims flee from their sights

“I want to talk about our relationship
I want to talk about our future
I’ve been out, I’ve got a buzz going
I’ve had a few, and I’m coming over.”
