Set forth a path of progress
Only you can decide the life you want to make
Moving forward
And don’t ever feel like a burden
Sometimes a call to a loved one is all it takes
Don’t feel weak for seeking out help
Feel strong enough to change yourself
Left behind a mess I know
Black stains and burn marks show
All the damage I’ve done, to this house and my lungs
My mind was so damn numb, to all I’d done
And all the loved ones, who wished I’d come to terms with all my problems
If sobriety kills me I hope my energy is transferred
(onto)
Someone more deserving
And if my dread fucking kills me I hope that I’m not remembered
(remembered)
As a burden to the ones I love
Living life through a different lens
I can see all my faults, and regrets have no end
Cause the hatred I feel for who I was
Proves how undeserving I am of the ones I love
But they stuck by my side through all the times
(I deserved nothing more than to die)
But as the years continuously pass away
My hatred slowly withers, into nothing
And I’m sure that yours will too
So keep your head up kid
There’s so much more this world
Has in store for you
Don’t let some fucking mistake
Ruin the rest of your life
Just put your faith in yourself
To change the hand you were dealt
Don’t let some fucking mistake
Go off and take your life
Cause you are loved in this world and you will
Win this fight

Burn and Rot

The same process again and again
You swore this was the last time
(But what did you think)
We would just roll over
Or turn the other cheek, no we can not stand
We cannot stand for this anymore
Stitches over her lips shouldn’t be acceptable
The time for silence is done
The time for prosecution has come
Backs against the wall with no place to run
Just you wait and see
Theres consequences to your actions and you’ll never be
Safe here anymore
Cause the truth is out and this fights worth us dying for
Just to take you down and watch you bleed, well I cannot wait
To watch you bleed
(And hear you scream)
Just like she did when you refused to leave
(Well I hope you get)
What you deserve cause your hollow apology is useless
(To her, to us)
To anyone who ever gave a fuck
You cannot lie your way out of this
The proof is on the table you fucking piece of shit
You fooled us all but you’re a lost cause
You stand so tall but your morals are small
or none existent now that I think
About who you are and who you pretend to be
A coward under a mask
A monster we misjudged
(I hope you rot)
(How dare you justify)
Your violent decisions claiming you’re a victim using
Mental illness as a scape goat
Depression and anxiety don’t make it okay
For you to raise your fist and cast your stone
Bipolar or not, your actions prove a lot
And for them you deserve to
Burn and rot

Preach to me, preach your lies to me
Cult leader mentalities have gone to far yeah
I think it’d time you took a
(break break)
You stand so tall
Hiding behind your gold plated podium
Spreading your gospel in the form of
(hate hate)
Disguised as love
Disguised as hope
Disguised as some kind of divine intervention
(from up above)
But the only intervention you need
Is a swift kick in the teeth mother fucker
You leach off the weak
Don’t practice what you preach
What more could you possibly need
You’re in search of anything you’ve never had
But I promise you 3 million dollars later, you won’t feel any less
Sense of longing, because your greed is endless
I hope your god sees
That you’re insufferable
No matter how much you have
You still take from the poor
But what happens when the well dries up
And you have no one to manipulate further
I guess you’ll tell god it was a misunderstanding
well it it doesn’t really matter, cause he’ll forgive you
He’ll forgive all your sins
He’ll forgive you for everything
But I won’t I won’t
I hope you fucking choke
I’ve been told I’m doomed for not believing in your god
And I’ve been told I’m going to hell
For not going to your church on Sundays
But the fact of the matter is, I don’t believe in anything you say
So preach to me all you want it falls on deaf ears
Just stop convincing the less fortunate to give you all they have
Isn’t it convenient how as your pockets grow theres shrink
and you keep telling them all they have to do is believe
(believe in what?)
The hope you’ve all but taken away
I hope they burn down this whole fucking place

Let yourself think
You’re changing something
By seeking out opposition and biting, off their tongues
You claim that they’re the ones without an open mind
While yours won’t open long enough
To let them get a word in edgewise
Hypocritical you’re far more cynical than you think
Your motives are far less inspired with hateful desires
Your character on the brink
Your reputation on the brink
You have nothing to gain
With a mindset you refuse to change
There has to be some middle ground between
Where they’ve been
And where you are now
Let go of the notion that your beliefs are the only ones
And if anyone chooses to disagree they’re on the wrong side of history
Give your self a second to reflect
Give their thoughts a second to digest
Or this debate is meaningless
Give yourself a second to reflect
Give their thoughts a second to digest
Cause if you can’t
This debate is meaningless
Fuck this red vs blue
Fuck this me vs you
Fuck two divided parties that are lacking the concept
Of forward progress
And only have ambitions to destroy each other
And only have no ambition to relate to one another
A fight in which no one wins
A world in which
No one wins

You’ve spent your life trying to hide your true face
Two decades spent living in fear of what they might say
And now you’re cast out, alone and disgraced
A family that was once your world is now ashamed
(well you should be ashamed)
Living your life to be
Part of their picture perfect family
But you feel dead inside
Cause their closed off minds
Won’t accept your true life
So don’t ever feel like
(don’t ever feel like)
You’ve done something wrong
(you’ve done something wrong)
Cause sometimes in this life it’s a good thing, to feel like you don’t belong
You shouldn’t have to seek approval, cause you have nothing to prove
Just be true to yourself and fuck a world
too ignorant to see what you’ve been through
too ignorant to see
Let them fade away
In their miserable existence as they hate
Let them fade away
(don’t belong)
You need not concern yourself
With the approval of a dying generation
(fuck no)
Please don’t ever conform to what they want you to be
Please don’t ever conform,
To a world too blind to see
With no will to be
You’re hanging on by a string
But please don’t leave
Please don’t ever leave
