Assassinating Pity - Chris Juris

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
