Pernicious Lyrics[Chorus]
I'm wise enough to know these promises pernicious
The fruit of what was sewn and still I'm reeling
Mistrust forever more, the wake you left is vicious
Your hate can't help but show and still I'm reeling
[Verse 1]
Done throwing coins in a wishing well!
Break, walls that you have built yourself!
I'm done with all the lies you speak!
No, more won't turn the other cheek!
[Pre-Chorus]
How could I have ever thought it'd be worth it?
You're falling farther, and farther, and farther, and farther apart
How is it you don't know?
[Chorus]
I'm wise enough to know these promises pernicious
The fruit of what was sewn and still I'm reeling
Mistrust forever more, the wake you left is vicious
Your hate can't help but show and still I'm reeling
[Verse 2]
I'm growing tired, you manipulate!
Your, words, they further aggravate!
I drew the line, now will you make a move!
(Weakness!) That's what's inside of you!
I am still warm from transgression, aggression
I still feel the sting, can't help but question
And suffer the wrath of conditions created by you
[Bridge: Jeanne]
How could I have ever thought it'd be worth it?
We're falling farther apart
How is it you don't know?
(I'm wise enough to know, to know)
(I'm wise enough to know, to know)
[Chorus]
I'm wise enough to know these promises pernicious
The fruit of what was sewn and still I'm reeling
Mistrust forever more, the wake you left is vicious
Your hate can't help but show and still I'm reeling
[Outro]
(And still I'm reeling)
(And still I'm reeling)
