Face Value

Come close
Lay low
Don't make a show
Your own
Unknown
One time sideshow
One lone
Age old
Roll call resold
Fool's gold
A black rose
Dressed in sheep's clothes
'Cause the real me, real me
Ain't nothing you'd like
You thought you knew me, but there's a new me
For every day and night
Oo-hoo, how lucky for you
I've got just the one you need
From the face you remember to the voice that you know
And what you get is everything you see
By the time you've solved the crime
The present's just rewrapped
Face value ain't worth a dime
When you fall for all the same traps
Wondering
Have you seen
The last of me
Casualty
Of a skin deep
Game of hide and seek
Heartbeat
Slow creep
When it's time to feed
No need
To speak
I know just who to be
To reel you, reel you
Hook, sinker, and line
Peel right through you
And grab the heart inside
Well well, how lucky am I?
To find a heart so sweet
With pretty little feelings and funny little dreams
And a teeny little crush on me
It was only a matter of time
And you've been waiting for this
But face value ain't worth a dime
When you fall for all the same tricks
Every gust of wind
Every snapping twig (SUBSTITUTION)
Every crowded place
Every hand you shake
Every spider's web
Every hair on your neck (SEDUCTION)
Every beating wing
And honeybee sting
Every brush of wind
Every snapping twig (STRENGTH)
Every crowded place
Every hand you shake
Every spider's web
Every hair on your neck (SYMPATHY)
In every other shapeshifting beast
You'll just think back to me
I'll reel you, reel you
Hook, sinker, and line
Peel right through you
And grab the heart inside
Oo-hoo, how lucky for you
I've got just the one you need
From the face you remember to the voice that you know
And what you get is everything you see
By the time you've solved the crime
The present's just rewrapped
Face value ain't worth a dime
When you fall for all the same traps
It was only a matter of time
And you've been waiting for this
But face value ain't worth a dime
When you fall for all the same tricks

Lie With Me

Come with me
Let’s dry your tears
Talk to me
Whisper in my ear
Lay with me
We’ll work it out
Stay with me
We'll make it count
You’ll never know just when it started
Why you feel trapped in her clutches
Lay your head next to mine
Tell me all the secrets that you keep locked tight
Night by night, you won’t help but see
No one makes a better her than me
I’ll take my place where love once stood
Chew your heart until it’s empty rotted wood
When bite by bite your kingdom falls
Who'll say a girl can’t really have it all?
You say to me
It feels like something changed
Well, there’s a brand new me
Let’s call it a love exchange
Because killing darlings
Would be such a waste
Why would I skip
The thrill of the chase?
You’ll never know just where your heart went
When I replace your dear beloved
Lay your head next to mine
Tell me all the secrets that you keep locked tight
Night by night, you won’t help but see
No one makes a better her than me
I’ll take my place where love once stood
Chew your heart until it’s empty rotted wood
When love ignites and this bedbug bites
You'll claw your way through for just one more night
And when bite by bite another kingdom falls
Who says a girl won't really have it all?

There's a time and place
For sunny days and dinner dates
But what you want, boy, deep inside
Is dress-up games and sleeping in
Someone who takes the heat
A shelter from that rainy street
A room to stay for just one night
Unless that feeling's creeping in
The way to love ain't such an art
Just trace those claws over his heart
Come one, come all, come be my only
Who'd ever dream of leaving me lonely?
Don't be afraid to leave those three words unspoken
All that I want is your nightly devotion
You're sinking oh so deep
I'll have you talking in your sleep
Oh, little moth, come to my light
And let me burn you up again
Wait until the day
Maybe you'll find you wanna stay
For another chance to roll the dice
Whisper your love and go all-in
A good man's heart ain't such a chore
Just walk right in through the front door
Come one, come all, come be my only
Who'd ever dream of leaving me lonely?
Don't be afraid to leave those three words unspoken
All that I want is your nightly devotion
Call your mama, tell her that you found the one
Or stay discreet and keep it hushed
Your secret's safe with me
Let's just hope your heart will be
Don't waste your time with pointless games
Just walk right in the easy way
Come one, come all, come be my only
Who'd ever dream of leaving me lonely?
So be afraid, boy, you might just fall
Cause all I want is
To see you crawl

You've discovered
She's not your lover
Uncovered the unexpected
You saw cracks
In my mask.
Asking what I'm going to do next
We're militant
Through limerence.
It's a dissonant way to live
I disguise
And then we mobilize.
Why is it so damn hard to get?
It's unethical
Heretical
Antithetical to what you'd think were the
Directions
To the objective
Protected behind your ribs
Feast your eyes and eat your heart out
Don't turn around and run away
Lay your weapons down or I'll eat your heart out
You can't hide from the dawning of a new age
Dry your eyes and gaze upon the new crown
Don't turn around and run from me
Surrender what you've got or we'll tear your city down
Don't turn your back on your new queen
It's entertaining
When you stop changing
Rearranging your true face
How immediate
You find obedience
With the easiest and oldest way
It's ironic
How symbiotic
And necrotic love can be
What perfects you
And what can wreck you
Is the very fruit that feeds me
Take deception
Add some aggression
And not a weapon can defeat you
It takes an army
To disarm me
And I'm sorry but I've got one too
Feast your eyes and eat your heart out
Don't turn around and run away
Lay your weapons down or I'll eat your heart out
You can't hide from the dawning of a new age
Dry your eyes and gaze upon the new crown
Don't turn around and run from me
Surrender what you've got or we'll tear your city down
Don't turn around from your new queen
Feast your eyes and eat your heart out
Don't turn around from this new age
Raise a hand against me and I'll eat your heart out
You can't hide from the dawning of a new day
Dry your eyes and gaze upon the new crown
Don't turn around and run from me
Surrender what you've got or we'll tear your city down
Don't turn around
Don't turn your back

Come see what's real
And what was ideal
The lights are up in an empty hall
It's a game, pretending,
A whole show depending
On a role with no curtain call
A role that dances, acts, and sings
And always feels the mask that clings
And stifles every thing
You'd be if only you were you
You think I am an animal
A force of nature breaking all I touch and all you know
You think I am a deadly wind,
A thunderstorm of havoc wrecking homes
And then I go
As though I want to tear from you
What could just as well be shared with you
Well even a savage beast
Needs somewhere to retreat sometimes
With grins to grin
And so many plates to spin
It makes no sense to carry on
Well the curtain's peeled
And the twist is long revealed
And all the lines that I got wrong
Don't think about just what it’s like
To don the mask beneath these lights
To grin and bear with all your might
Yet never bare yourself at all
You think I am a parasite,
That I take and take and never feel regret
Or feel alone
You think I have a heart of stone
And never truly care one little bit.
What do you know?
As if I want to tear from you
What could just as well be shared with you
Well not even a parasite
Does it out of spite for you
But I'll take a bow
Take a bow and walk off the stage
And you can turn your back
Turn your back on me and walk away
I wish I could just make a trade
My name in lights for just one day
No need to hide my face away again
You loved the love that wasn’t hers,
So why not me who gave her word
To love you til the very end?
But I'll take a bow
Take my bow and walk off the stage
And you can turn your back
Turn your back on me and walk away
You'll see me again someday,
Another stage, a different play
Hide your face and turn away,
And I'll do the same
