I lo-, I lo-

I need your fabrication
It's my pleasure to concede
Shear the false expectancy
Fueling their complacency

Freedom is honesty
Freedom is hostility
Take her from her diocese
Place her on the mantelpiece

I love your ambiguity
Revise antiquity

I love your-
I love your ambiguity
Revise antiquity

I love your ambiguity
Revise antiquity
