I'm Glad You're Gone

These are the last words
I’ll address to you
Seven years of agony
You’ve put me through
Constantly treating me
Like I was the enemy
While we were on the same team
I guess we were never on the same page
I’m glad you’re gone
Thank God you’re gone
This is the last time
You’ll ever hear from me
Your negative attitude
Is what led you astray
Wasted all your potential
Settling for mediocrity
You said you had responsibilities
More like different priorities
I’m glad you’re gone
Thank God you’re gone
I can’t believe
You almost made me quit
Fortunately I stayed
And made the best of it
Since we’ve parted ways
Life’s never been easier
Since we’ve parted ways
Every day I grow stronger
I’m glad you’re gone
Thank God you’re gone

I can’t think
I’m being distracted all the time
I can’t set my head straight
I need to ease my mind
Give me what I need
I don’t even know what I need
Day by day
I forget how to feel bored
And use it to fuel my brain
To come up with ideas of my own
I feel like I’ve seen it all before
Pull me away
Feed me with more useless trends
Do I need to cope with reality?
Or do I need to escape
Pull me away
Instant gratification
Ruling a generation
We need a call to action
I can’t think
I’m being distracted all the time
I can’t set my head straight
I need to ease my mind
Give me what I need
I don’t even know what I need
Pull me away

Old Wounds

All I wanted was to give you
All I had, all my life
But still somehow it wasn’t enough
And still right now, I’m having it rough
I wish I could forget everything we’ve missed
I know I should move on from all of this
Can’t you see when you look in my eyes
Something’s off, I’m paralyzed
I wish I could forgive as fast
As you swept away your past
But I can’t put mine away
It made me who I am today
Turns out that I’m just like you
We’re only different in the way we grew
Now I’m giving all my life
To spinning wheels and flashing lights
And I’ll never look back again
Broken kids make unbreakable men
I wish I could forget everything we’ve missed
And clear my head from things that I can’t fix
I should move on from all of this
I forgive you
It fucking pains me
But I forgive you
In fact I owe you every breath I take
You’re in my blood in every move I make
I know forgetting won’t set me free
These wounds define who I am, and I’ll bear em forever with me
And now I can forget everything we’ve missed
And now I can move on from all of this

I see you crawling
Creeping from cracks and crevices
I don’t know what you expect from me
I’ve never made any promises
You’ve got me cornered
I’m hanging by a thread
You never seem to be bothered
That you fill me with dread
I wanna run for cover
Every time I see your face
No room for cover
When you’re in my space
I wanna run for cover
Every time I see your face
No room for cover
When you’re in my space
I feel your presence everywhere
It’s draining all my energy
I can’t even tell
If it’s a dream or reality
You’re always in my head
Is it ever gonna end?
I’m going out of my mind
Yeah, I swear I’m losing it
How can I get rid of you?
Should I Stomp you, squash you or bomb you
Periplaneta Americana
Bomb with chemicals, toxic chemicals
I see it’s your world
I’m only part of it
I know it’s your world
I surrender

Necessary Evil

You wanna take my freedom?
Yeah, wanna take it away
I’m just starting to blossom
So you should call it a day
A patient predator
I stick to the plan
Slow executioner
Your fate is in my hands
I’ll hit when you least expect it
In fact it is already happening
And you won’t escape it
You just can’t escape me
You wanna take my freedom?
Yeah wanna take it away
I’m just starting to blossom
So you should call it a day
Better watch your back
Cause you won’t see me coming
Your future is painted in black
Don’t you know you’re slipping?
Like the garrotte that advocates fear
I’ll choke the life out of you
Like the king snake standing near
Alive I’ll swallow you
It’s nothing personal
But it has to happen
Fruit of the egocentric nation
You were born rotten
With every move I make
I’m slowly digging your grave
But you keep clinging
You keep making mistakes
But as much as I’d want to scatter your ashes
To every corner of the earth, your time isn’t now
Don’t die yet
You’re like oil on the fire
Don’t die yet
I’ll be the one to let you know when you’re over

Hate Routine
02:40
|

This morning I woke up just to hate you
To look you, look you straight in the eye
I’m the only person you can’t fool
I’ve known you all my life
Yeah, blaming others is easy
It puts your issues away
But take a look around and see
No one can help you change
No one can help you change
No one can help you
Quit running away
You’re done being a failure
You’re on your own in this
There’s no one to save you
Quit running away
You’re done being scared
Burry the child within
And turn into a man
You complain about what you’ve got
But never work for what you need
So used to justify your actions
Guilt is something you no longer feel
You wish you could switch life in a blink
But the mountain of torments is too high
Everyone has got their own demons
There’s no remedy but efforts and time
I turn my back on the mirror
I’m going on with my day
Said all I had to now I’m over
I turn my back on the mirror
I guess I’ll hate you forever
At least until tomorrow morning

Big Red

She’s a vicious, selfish, maniac
Once you’re rolling with her, there’s no turning back
Always on the move
Going from town to town
Make sure you’ve got what it takes, when she comes to get down
She’s making heads spin everywhere she goes
The second you see her, man you already know
A tough one like that won’t take shit from fools
She’s seen it all before, and she’s got nothing to lose
She’s been with numbers of men, tore em all apart
Big velvet purse full of broken hearts
Don’t get too close, she’ll get in your head
One day you’re living the dream, the next you wish you were dead
The fairy tale turns to nightmare
Caught at my own game, I thought I’d be in control
She played me just like she played every men
Made me fall for her then ripped my heart and soul
Do it!
I can’t believe I used to complain
About her, smoking cigarettes and snorting cocaine
But now she’s gone and I lost her track
Man I’d do anything to have her back
Now she’s gone and my world turned grey
I wake up in sweat every night, screaming her name
I’ll move on with my life like you’ve never existed
Until we meet again

You’re the only one
Who knows what’s best for you
Fuck what the others say
Fuck everything they do
It’s your story
You’ve got to write it your way
Chipping away at your dreams
Is what will keep you sane
Do what you want kid!
Do what you want
Don’t let anyone
Make you think you’re wrong
If you feel it inside
Don’t ever compromise
Just stay strong
Look straight ahead
And you’ll be at peace
When crows circle around your bed
One thing’s for sure
I’ve waited way too long
To start listening to myself
Please learn from my mistakes
Even I might end up jaded
And try to pull you down
Be who you want to be
Do what you have to
Do what you want kid
Love who you want kid
Say what you want kid
Because you won’t live forever

Turning Point
03:36
|
|||
|
The voices in my head
Like a thorn in my side
Making me doubt my decisions
Slowly killing my drive
Face first in the gutter
No longer searching to thrive
Doing what the others expect from me
I’m rotting from the inside
Rotting from the inside
I’ve spent so much time
Trying to find myself
Repressing what I felt
To fit with everyone else
I guess I was scared to fail
Scared to be alone
Scared to take my dreams seriously
Scared of the unknown
I need to step back up
I need to shake myself
For the time I have left
I can’t keep holding my breath
It’s crazy how
I had to reach the lowest the lows
And feel the presence of death at close range
To start making a change
FUCK
Nothing can stop me now
