Cheap Show Lyrics by Pink Metal

Design Of A Rake

2023

A bouquet full of blood to paint all the roses red
They came in other colors, but it didn't satisfy your thirst
And what if I needed punishment, just like you said
I hope I got all your attention, you know how that turns me on

And I just can't believe
I didn't reach for greatness, right in front of me
I can paint with words a thousand ways that tears can stain your cheeks
But I could never find the words that would make you fall in love with me

But I think I'm a freak
And that's appealing you see
So go get what you want
And I get what I need
And it works like clockwork
As long as we know
This was all a cheap show
And one of us gotta leave

Sometimes it scares me how much I still want it
After spending years writing down cons
But just one look at you, and I know you're worth it
I know my love is poisonous, but what are the odds?

You made me feel alive
It sounds fucking cliché, but let one of the other fuckers try it
I already know my hands can't drain their cold and dead bodies

And I think I'm a freak
And that's appealing you see
So go get what you want
And I get what I need
And it works like clockwork
As long as we know
This was all a cheap show
And one of us gotta leave

Goodbye my love
I know you didn't mean to thrill me
Goodbye my love
I know you never meant to kill me
I slipped from your touch
It just all got too much
They warned me my jagged pieces would either cut you
Or get me broken apart
But you couldn't throw me in the trash
So now here I am
I think I fixed myself
But my soul could be comically disfigured and I wouldn't be able to tell

But I think I'm a freak
And that's appealing you see
So go get what you want
And I get what I need
And it works like clockwork
As long as we know
This was all a cheap show
And one of us's gotta leave
