The Clorox Metaphor

She...

Well begin me now,
And don't expect me to complicate you
I don't see how
I could've ever let you down
She thinks twice
Rotting under dripping eyes
You need to let her down
Wrinkled by her perspiration

And the guilt weighs down
In between the pinched skin
And everything works out
And I've become a clown
She's moving south
Living where it's easier
But she never meant to hate me so much
Never meant to be a scene change

But she's burning out again
And she's burning out again
She's burning out again

She drinks her alcohol like chloroform
To evaporate her head
Into the ground she sinks too low
Forgot to wash out the clorox and it shows
I played the part too well
And I swear that I'm a liar now
She's become a star
And I've become the metaphor

She's burning out again
She's burning out again
She's burning out again
She's burning out
Burning out
Burning out
Burning out
