What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality. -Plutarch


Why don't you just disappear!?

I was fine before you came and messed me up!
You shoved me in this ditch, entrenched me in a rut!
If I could have one wish that would last me forever
It would be, it would be, that you'd never be loved, oh no, never!

I strike at the air, at the face of oppression
I should climb out, teach you a little lesson
About why you shouldn't mess with a broken man's heart
The guilt you'll leave with you will tear you apart!

If I go down, so will you
If I die tonight, you'll perish too
I'll drag you down to my shallow grave
This is what you get when you misbehave!

I'll take you down with my own filthy affliction
The very things you hated will transform into addiction
You'll chase the moon, as it runs to the distance
Be punished for your deeds, not rewarded for persistence

If I go down, so will you
If I die tonight, you'll perish too
I'll drag you down to my shallow grave
This is what you get when you misbehave!
When we die, we'll go our separate ways
The devil from the depths will take you away!

Away!

Every time I give you a reason to change!
You turn your head, divert your gaze!
Why won't you listen?
Why can't you listen!?

If I go down, so will you
If I die tonight, you'll perish too
I'll drag you down to my shallow grave
This is what you get when you misbehave!
When we die, we'll go the same way we came
Fire and brimstone will treat us the same!

Pretty angry for one of my songs. Also probably not my best, but it's been a while, so... Yeah
