Laid out, puking in the back of a fancy bar
You and your friends in the front booth
Laughing at my sweet naivety and its awkward gravity
Three years, saw the decimation of the world in you
Messiah complex led a fickle flu
To see its antidote and end in you
And now I'm gonna leave you
Eloise, Eloise, you never meant that much to me
Baby, please let go, my Eloise
Let it bleed, let it freeze and fall apart in front of me
My Eloise, you took the world from me
So beautiful, the ugliness within you
Last of three, baby of the family spoiled to bits
And rotten to the shining core of you and mad with power
I've seen corrupt, the leaders of the nation
Stricken with the sickly imitation of a love
The lord would never stitch
You've got my cake, it's time to dine on the rich
Eloise, Eloise, you never meant that much to me
Baby, please let go, my Eloise
Let it breed, let it freeze and fall apart in front of me
My Eloise, you took the world from me
Band-Aid, just a bloody Band-Aid
That's all I ever really was to you, Eloise
A soldier with a syndrome
The dreams of children's screams
You molded, you shaped
Like a god who loathed to create
Two Band-Aids, two infected Band-Aids
That's all we were to each other, Eloise
A couple of stupid kids, throwing a ball
Back and forth, to see who drops it first
Eloise, Eloise, you never meant that much to me
Baby, please let go, my Eloise
Let it bleed, let it freeze and fall apart in front of me
My Eloise, you took the world from me
You took the world from me
You took the world from me
You took the world from me
You took the world from me
