Statues

What have you done to justify the demand of our deference?
Only time will spoil your inflated statue of yourself.
You've been underwhelmed.
Only for a second there, I had you fooled.
You were under my thumb. I've been growing patient dear.
I'll wait for you, my love, where you can't run.
You take so much pride in knowing that you've misled someone else.
You can't hide your smile when you've fulfilled the great deception.
They've been overwhelmed.
Only for a second there, I had you fooled.
You were under my thumb. I've been growing patient dear.
I'll wait for you, my love, where you can't run from me.
I will smother your needs.
Forget the fiction of what you thought we could never be.
I'll follow you if you won't follow me.
