Assailants

All that I say you take as holy
Now the world is watching
You've been waiting for words to take in
Now it's the world watching

I can't seem to kill my assailants
They keep changing faces

Can I be honest, sing you a sonnet?
You're not the world, baby
Where I'm going, I'll speak it slow
And all of this world, you're with me
I must be sleeping it all off, just like you had promised

I can't seem to kill my assailants; no no
They're changing faces—
And you're not the world baby
I'll be fine come morning
I will be sleeping it all off, just like you promised
