Threshold Narcissus Lyrics

Caught in the headlamp glare
Of your own blinding vanity
Mesmerised by the stare
Of your shallow personality
Gorging the junk food of flattery
You drag your fat ego around
Everyone floored by the battering
You give to whoever's around

Trapped in the personal hell
Of your own desperate addiction
Frightened that others can tell
Of your expensive affliction
With your happiness based on a chemical
You wax lyrical with words so profound
When your indulgence reaches that level
It's safest not to be around

Oh, Narcissus you petulant child
Admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes
Oh, Narcissus you angel beguiled
Unsated by self you do nothing but die

Wrapped in the transparent lies
Of your desperate situation
You expound on imaginary ties
Expecting us to believe them
In the absence of concrete commitment
You've all the attention that money can buy
Not caring that those who still love you
Are callously thrown to one side

Oh, Narcissus you petulant child
Admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes
Oh, Narcissus you angel beguiled
Unsated by self you do nothing but die

Oh, Narcissus you treacherous child
Admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes
Oh, Narcissus you angel beguiled
Unsated by self you do nothing but die

Hey you dog man
Whelp of a litter of scavengers
Bolting the flesh of your victims
With a ravenous greed
You work with your siblings
Up to a point
'Til your ego is sated
Or your wallet fulfilled
Jealously guarding
The bones of your kill
With a malice that's born out of fear

Running with the pack
Your defence is to attack
But I detect you in your stealth
Because you've rolled in your own filth
You hope to gain my trust
With your cowardly disguise
Whispering such confidences
My revulsion to a-wreck

You call yourself a friend
You call yourself a friend
And when I turn my back
Your fangs will feel my neck
What is your domain
But a barn where your runts roll in the reek
You would seek to steel my freedom
And have branded me a freak
I want nothing of your snarling mongrel strain
Your smarmy doggerel lies
And if these words have singed your fur
Consider yourself a whipped cur

Gorging the junk food of flattery
You haul your fat ego around
Everyone floored by the battering
You give to whoever's around

Oh, Narcissus you petulant child
Admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes
Oh, Narcissus you angel beguiled
Unsated by self you do nothing but die
