lyrics

YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE FINE! TAKE A LOOK IN MY MIND! YOU'RE JUST A TRAITOR AND A TURNCOAT! I'VE FIGURED YOU OUT! YOU WON'T GET FAR, I SWEAR! WHAT YOU'VE DONE ISN'T FAIR! YOU LEAVE JUST SO MUCH EVIDENCE THAT I CAN PLACE YOU THERE! DON'T EVER GIVE BUT TAKE! EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU FAKE! COPY OF A COPY! DISPOSED OF PROPERLY!

Wasting time thinking about the future… With nothing but my own shaky hands to answer such a rusty suture. And every time I try, I plummet to the earth like a stone. Yeah, I've felt so alone the minute you walked away…

NOW I'M STUCK INSIDE THIS HOME WE CALLED OUR OWN; ALONE!

So stop taking all of your answers from people who're feeding you cancer… Can't you seem to make your own decisions without making deep incisions? And can't you see it kills me? Making me act so fake… It makes it seem like hell; it's the perfect place for me.

I KEEP ASKING, "WHAT DID I DO?!" I KEEP ASKING, "WHAT DID I DO?!"

(And we came so close to making things so perfect…) And I watched your faith turn from passion to angst

IT DOESN'T COUNT IF NO ONE'S AROUND! I FIND MYSELF ALONE OUT AND ABOUT! (Explain to me how you're in pain...) YOU SHOULD LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES, TRAITOR! NO ONE'S EVER GONNA FORGIVE YOU! DON'T REPEAT THE PAST, TURNCOAT! THE ONLY ONE WHO CHANGES THE PATTERN IS YOU! YOU WILL LEARN! FACE IT AND LEARN!

So stop taking all of your answers from people who're feeding you cancer… Can't you seem to make your own decisions without making deep incisions? And can't you see it kills me? Making me act so fake… It makes it seem like hell; it's the perfect place for me.

I KEEP ASKING, "WHAT DID I DO?!" "WHAT DID I DO?!" "WHAT DID I DO?!" WHY WON'T YOU ANSWER?! WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN?! ANSWER ME! THIS IS WHAT I KNOW…!
THIS IS THE WORST I'VE KNOWN TO ME! THIS IS THE WORST I'VE KNOWN TO ME! GAIN THE STRENGTH TO CHANGE! (CAUSE YOU'RE NO DIFFERENT!) OR END UP LIKE ME!
