If I'm the famine, that makes you the skeleton, the skeleton
The bait was hung, and when the bed is made I'll fall right in
I came from forests, into fields of wheat and I'll drive home
If I'm the shade, you're the nothing at all, you won't learn till later
If theres a message, make it sharp and dark or it won't be heard
If theres a lesson, its that the smartest worm is still a worm
I never knew, have I caught your cold or had it the whole time?
Forget I said anything, Im the mannequin
Think of all the time you've wasted, building this monument
My name is attached, I'm the co-author of the venom
When I'm gone I hope my absence is more miserable than anything
We were actors and artists, we were important
We Were important
If theres a message, make it sharp and dark or it won't be heard
If theres a lesson, its that the smartest worm is still a worm
I never knew, have I caught your cold or had it the whole time?
Forget I said anything, Im the mannequin
