Forbid & Forget

V.1
I was her means to an end
The shovel to the hole she dug
The needle piercing her arm, not the drug
Lamentably, I can’t forget
That chapter of my life
Spent in a self aware fool’s paradise
Chorus
Love was a cheap bouquet
That I tossed away
Decomposing in the dirt
I can feel it decay
V.2
No matter where I turn
It’s unavailing
How shameful reminders burn
Scars into my brain of you
With eyes just like your mother’s
Staring at me like she used to
Until you were born
Now her eyes are filled with scorn
So condescending
There’s no point in pretending
That I love you
Bridge
I'm sorry I hate you
I'm sorry I made you
A wildflower grows from a grave mistake

Misery

V.1
What the hell had I
Done for you to go and kick me out
On to the curb, It’s so absurd
I don’t really know why you’d leave me here, but here I am
Righteously pissed!
V.2
Your pressure kept me drowned
In a pool of my anxiety
Treading to stay afloat
Dreading you subconsciously
You tired me out and then forced my head down
Chorus
I came undone/a casualty you won’t confirm
Look what you’ve become/So quixotic that we can’t return, but
You'll survive/When I leave
Behind the shell you needed me to be
In order to make you happy, cuz all you pursue/Is misery
V.3
Deceptions for obsessions
Promises you never meant to keep
3 years have come and gone
Wasted underneath my feet
Look into my eyes and tell me your last lie!

V.1
One mistake can drive anyone insane
It all depends on what makes you tick
It seems we were each other's, darling
A small embrace becomes a nasty trick
Why did it have to go this way?
Why did we think that we'd get away?
I don't know why, but I know
Pre-chorus 1
It should have never got this far
Yet here we are
Chorus
Falling away in permanent slumber
Paying eternal debts as we sing
How lovers meet at six feet under
Too bad we were only a one time thing
V.2
Wasted destinies
Intertwined with irony
A travesty for two
Equally misfortunate cheaters
Bound by circumstance to face the truth
Pre-chorus 2
It should have never got this far
Yet here we are
Cuz we failed to be elusive
From people that we vowed to be exclusive (to)

V.1
Help us! We're breathing secrets right out of our mouths
In the form of whispers traveling by wind
Planting rumors wherever they grow about
These stories never end well, but of course
There are only seven so honey tell me yours
V.2
Desperation doesn't seem to suit you
But it fits me just fine
Alone I'd cross the line
Just to make you sigh
Pre Chorus
Tell me what I should do
To win you over
Chorus 1 & 2
I know I still love you
But the question remains
Do my feelings matter to you anymore?
You don't care about truth
You're happier where you are
Then where we were before
But you were too smart for dumb luck to last
V.3
Don't give me results! Just give me a smile
To let me know all the trouble you put me through was worth your while
I'm drowning in sorrow chasing old flames
That have all told me to go away
After calling my name
Final Chorus
I know I still love you
But the question remains
Do my feelings matter to you anymore?
You don't care about truth
You're happier where you are
Then where we were before
But you were too smart for dumb luck to last
My fate was sealed before the die were cast

A Prisoner of Conscience

V.1
Seize the means of corruption!
We do our best to do our worst
To the people that brought us here
It’s almost like we rehearsed
Surviving in a world where we cannot exist
We live sentenced to death by self righteous hypocrites
Pre-chorus
Take my advice
Chorus 1
Be careful who you save
And who you choose to send to an early grave
Die or become depraved!
V.2
My humanity and sanity are early casualties of war
But if life isn’t worth living without them, what am I still fighting for?
Chorus 2 & 3
Be careful who you save
And who you choose to send to an early grave
Here you die or live depraved!
Victimized until all that remains
Is a world where everybody feels the same
