lyrics

Get this through your thick skull, you’re wrong
So freely, watch as I just end each battle
See, now you know how it feels, I’m gonna beat em all
So good, looks like someone else sure could
But a line is being crossed I never told you that you should
Pick a bone, a false sense of play
Now go play God, looks like you’re running the world
Seems like you mean it, even odds conceited
What are you waiting for? What is the delay?

Realize you’re always to blame

Watch what I become someday
Nothing like before
There’s never enough for either one of us to say
What’s worth fighting for?
You think it’s luck (there is no halfway)
It’s not enough (Has to be more)
Time will find a way

Climbing every wall
Not ready, well I guess you’re finally rattled
See, now you know how it feels, I’m gonna watch you fall
One look, everything is understood
It was always meant to go the way that you thought that it would
Watch your tone, it’s how you convey
That condescending look of yours’ getting old
All that was needed, heated heads were greeted
You walk away from this, we’re far from okay

Only price, you’ll live with the shame

Look what I’ve become, someway
This is what it’s worth
In the end, guess there’s so much to say
