Assassinating Pity

Assassinating pity

Is stabbing you with care

In tantalizor-city

Obligation shams dare



Assassinating pity

Your stab wounds are pretty

Assassinating pity

You're called a day



Assassinating pity is riding you down

In tantalizor-city - Obligation shams dare

Assassinating pity - Assassinating pity

In tantalizor-city



Accept the present – it's past your way

Your way of asking is called a day

Assassin-attracter – we know a prey

Accept the present – it's past your day



It's never too late

It's never too late

Assassinating pity

Begs you to stay



Assassinating pity

Is stabbing you with care

In tantalizor-city

Follow our way



Don't give us reason

We never consider



Assassinating pity

Is riding guineas down

In tantalizor-city

As we tell you to pray



Assassinating pity

Grief is never pretty

Assassinating pity

In tantalizor-city



Doomed to stay in a never-bating pity

Choose the appliance yourself



Assassinating pity is soothing guineas down

In tantalizor-city – just to hold you up

Assassinating pity is what you ordered

Assassinating pity – penetrating care
