Lyrics

    So impressed with all you do
    Tried so hard to be like you
    Flew too high and burnt the wing
    Lost my faith in everything
    
    Lick around divine debris
    Taste the wealth of hate in me
    Shedding skin succumb defeat
    This machine is obsolete
    
    Made the choice to go away
    Drink the fountain of decay
    Tear a hole exquisite red
    Fuck the rest and stab it dead
    
    Broken bruised forgotten sore
    Too fucked up to care anymore
    Poisoned to my rotten core
    Too fucked up to care anymore
    
    In the back off the side and far away is a place where I hide where I stay tried to say tried to ask I needed to all alone by myself where were you?
    How could I ever think it’s funny how everything that swore it wouldn’t change is different now just like you would always say we’ll make it through then my head fell apart and where were you?
    How could I ever think it’s funny how everything you swore wouldn’t change is different now like you said you and me make it through didn’t quite fell apart
    Where the fuck were you?
