Faultline

Baby I'm a family man I haven't missed a day of work for thirty-five years But if you look at me with those eyes again well I won't go You see right through My lies and façades You crack right down to the core of my life like a faultline And I pay you for your time And of course I come at the end But what is spilling your seed on a motel room floor to true love I'd slit my own throat I'd murder my wife I'd rob a fucking bank and I'd give it all to you if you asked nice Baby for one hour a week I'm someone that doesn't have to speak You light up corners of my soul That I'd forgotten or I'd never known I'm a big man around town they all know my name, Handshakes and smiles as I glide through the day But like a nightman in the daylight I got filth on the brain and it's constant I talk to my children say hello to my wife They ask about my day but know nothing of my life Because I'm only alive for an hour at a time then the time's up I take off my clothes and I lay on the floor I'm in this repose when she walks through the door She puts a gag in my mouth and a belt around my throat and I'm helpless When she bloodies my lips I can speak of romance When there's piss on my chest my heart beats so fast And when she pulls on that belt and my eyes roll back then I know love Baby I'm a family man I haven't missed a day of work for thirty-five years But if you look at me with those eyes again well I won't go
