Lyrics

Your words cut like the sharpest the knife

Your words have a cutting and hurtful effect similar to the sharpest knife.

Your eyes can pierce right through my heart

Your gaze has the ability to deeply affect or hurt me emotionally.

The moves you make are always planned

Your actions are always deliberate and premeditated.

Your actions speak a thousand lies

Your actions convey numerous falsehoods or deceptions.

But I know that's part of who you are

Despite this behavior, I understand that it's an inherent part of your personality.

But I know that's part of who you are

Repeated line: Conveys the acceptance of the behavior as part of your character.

Take a look at yourself

Encouragement to introspect and self-reflect.

When you're trying to explain

When you attempt to clarify or justify something.

All the demons crawling out of your head

All the inner struggles or negative thoughts troubling you.

Take a look at yourself

A repetition of encouraging self-examination.

No one here is to blame

No one is being held responsible or accused.

For the poison running inside your veins

For the negativity or toxicity within you.

The more you scream the more I see

Your increased agitation or frustration reveals more of your genuine self.

Your real self in front of me

Your true nature becomes apparent to me.

Don't bother making one more scene

There's no need for further dramatic displays or outbursts.

There's nothing left you could reveal

There's nothing else left for you to expose or disclose.

'Cause I know by now that's who you are

Expresses recognition that this behavior is ingrained in your character.

'Cause I know by now that's who you are

Repeated line: Reinforces acknowledgment of the behavior as part of your identity.

Take a look at yourself

A repetition urging self-reflection.

When you're trying to explain

When attempting to justify or clarify actions or thoughts.

All the demons crawling out of your head

The internal struggles or negative thoughts manifesting in your behavior.

Take a look at yourself

Encouragement for introspection without assigning blame.

No one here is to blame

No one is being held accountable for the internal negativity.

For the poison running inside your veins

For the toxic or harmful thoughts or feelings within.

Take a look at yourself

Repeated lines emphasizing the need for self-reflection and understanding without blame.
