YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS TO BE WRONG,
CARRY ON BY DROPPING ALL YOUR STANDARDS.
AND WITH THIS HURT SEE WHAT I HAVE BECOME,
CARRY ON, IT’S NOT EVEN FAZING ME.
STAND UP STAND UP DON’T PRAY TO ME,
YOUR BEGGING TIME IS FUCKING HISTORY.
TROUBLED MINDS FOLLOW THE PATH OF THE WRONG THEY’VE DONE, COZ THEY DON’T HAVE A GO.
THEY DON’T HAVE HEART.
I CAN’T TAKE ANY FUCKING MORE OF THIS, YOU KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG.
TEMPTATIONS A GREEDY FUCKING GAME, NOW SET THE BOARD.
NOW SET THE BOARD.
YOU WANT TO PLAY GAMES, WELL I’VE GOT A FUCKING GAME FOR YOU.
CHECKMATE YOU FUCKING LITTLE RUNT.
YOU’LL COME UNSTUCK.
NOW COME UNSTUCK.
CHECKMATE, I CAME TO WIN.
I NEVER WANNA SEE YOUR FUCKING FACE,
TILL I KNOW WHAT I WANNA DO WITH YOU.
CARRY ON CARRY ON CARRY ON, IT WON’T BE TOO LONG.

BUT IT WAS FUN.
TAKE A LOOK AT MY PAST BEHIND ME.
THAT’S WHEN FUCK ALL MATTERED.
BUT TIMES OF FLYING HIGH WERE FUN.
DON’T DWELL ON THE PAST TIMES.
THAT SHIT THAT WE’RE NOT PROUD OF.
BUT THIS WAS FINDING WHO I AM.
BUT IT WAS FUN.
IT’S NOT LIKE I KILLED SOMEONE.
IT WAS NOTHING.
YOU KNOW SOME MAY CALL ME A FUCKING ANGEL.
I FUCKED UP.
WOULDN’T CHANGE IT FOR FUCK ALL.
WOULDN’T CHANGE IT FOR FUCK ALL.
I’M SORRY THAT FEELINGS GOT HURT.
THAT WAS NOT MY INTENTION.
SMASHING BOTTLES DON’T CHANGE SHIT.
SO WHY IN YOUR EYES DO I STILL SEE HATE?
I FUCKED UP.
IT WAS FUN.
I DONE WRONG.
IT WAS FUN.

IT’S A FUCKED UP PLACE,
WHEN GROWN MEN HAVE MORE THAN ONE FACE ON THEIR HEAD.
LITTLE FUCKS JEALOUS OF YOU.
WELL YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CAN GO AND FUCKING DO.
YOU CAN JUST GIVE IN.
WE SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOUR BULLSHIT.
YOU CAN JUST GIVE IN.
I KNOW WHERE YOU CAN STICK IT.
YOU STICKY LITTLE PRICK, GO FUCK YOURSELF.
COZ YOU’RE ALL BASICALLY FUCKING WHORES.
YOU STICKY LITTLE PRICK, NO WATCH YOUR BACK.
BECAUSE OF THESE LIES SURROUNDING YOU ALL,
FOR A LOT OF GREY HAIRS THERE’S NOT MANY GROWN MEN.
YOU’RE ALL FAKE WANKERS, I’D RATHER NOT WASTE MY TIME,
ON SOMEONE I CAN’T TRUST AS FAR AS I CAN THROW THEM.
SNAKE.
I CAN SEE YOUR FAULTS AND YOU WANT ME TO FORGET.
AND TRUST I WON’T.
REVENGE IS BEST SERVED COLD.
BEST SERVED COLD.
THIS DOG HAD ITS FUCKING DAY.

HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED,
IT’S OUT OF OUR CONTROL.
BURN THE PERFECT PICTURE,
ALL HOPE IS LOST, ITS FUCKING LOST.
BLOOD RUNS LIKE THE TIDES OF HATRED,
THROUGH THESE VEINS IT RUNS COLD.
BUT LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE.
RISE ABOVE IT ALL.
SAID AND DONE.
DON’T NEED YOUR BULLSHIT,
DON’T NEED YOUR PROPAGANDA.
DO ONE YA MUG.
SEE BACK THEN, NEVER LIVED IN THIS COLD WORLD.
BACK THEN WAS SIMPLE FUCKING TIMES.
LIKE WHEN WE SAY CAN WE START AGAIN,
GO BACK TO WHAT IT MEANT BACK THEN.
DEALT WITH SHIT FOR 15 YEARS.
HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED,
IT’S OUT OF OUR CONTROL.
BURN THE PERFECT PICTURE.
THIS SHITS ALL GONE TOO FAR.
WE HAVE OURSELVES TO BLAME,
BUT IN MY EYES IT’S STILL THE FUCKING SAME.
WITH MY HEADPHONES IN I CAN’T HEAR THE BULLSHIT.
BUT I STILL SEE IT FALL. DEEP.
15 YEARS.
