The Ladder

Isnt that what everyone wants to know
Pretty new girl walks into a room, everyones head turns
Looks her up and down wondering whos she *******
Who could she ****?
And how high could she climb?
And is it higher than me?

Tragedy, a poisonous lover
You infiltrate to destroy
Vanity, a cancer unforgiving
A charlatan with poise
Fool me once, enough is enough
Was I more than a step on your way up?
Hollowed out, Ive no semblance of love
Now youre just somebody that I used to * ***
And ow youre just somebody that I used to ****
Lest we learn, the tables turn
So Im betting out, Im betting out
You can be the prey in your masquerade
But Im getting out, Im getting out
Theres nothing left to repair

Ravenous, self-rightious, and lurid
But how much more til you break?
Scavenger, so ******* undeserving
You slither in just to take what you can take
Counterfeit, Im calling your bluff
Was I more than just a step on your way up?
Now youll burn and youre flesh out of luck
Now youre just somebody that I used to ****
Now youre just somebody that I used to ****
Lest we learn, the tables turn
So Im betting out, Im betting out
You can be the prey in your masquerade
But Im getting out, Im getting out
Against insight I fed your source of revenue
But now, it means nothing to me
To mean anything to you

Open grave, I was too blind to see
That 'love', spelled toyou is
'F-A-M-E'
You **** your way up the ladder
Going down on your way to the top
Do your arms ever tire?
Or do they heal while you climb with your mouth?
Delete everything, sever the yearning
You can keep the ******* ring
Delete everything
You can keep the ******* ring

Lest we learn, the tables turn
So Im betting out, Im betting out
You can be the prey in your masquerade
But Im getting out
Against insight I fed your source of revenue
But now, it means nothing to me
To mean anything to you
Nothing left to repair
