Nothing, Sugar

Your sugary words disgust me
Like melted taffy in the sun,
Caramel in your eyes,
Or arsenic in your Cinabunn

Can I borrow that rainbow,
Your ridiculous outlook on life
You see the world as beautiful
From the sparkling end of a knife

Your bliss is not your ignorance
It’s your arrogance with love
Your heart isn’t blinded
Rather, it is trapped inside her glove

You take good intentions
To a place they’ve known before
Between history repeated
And politicians keeping score

Come one, come all! Come see!
The bearded lady in this place
This one eats fire, this one swords,
And you, with the smiling face

Pain never tasted so sweet
Rejection never felt so good
And if you could do it over again,
Words even thicker, I know you would

Thickening and sickening,
Slow and smooth like molasses
Drowning in a slow-drip
Your words like Hitler’s gasses

I keep feeding you my lines
To keep you from talking
I’m giving you these signs
To keep you from walking

I’ll do anything to keep you happy
But I think you just might know it
So you create lies for you amusement
It makes you feel good when I show it
