You Could Do Better

I've begun to forgive myself
Even though you don't forgive me yet
That's alright
Forgiveness isn't easy
Steal my heart, rip it apart
Cut my wrists just to feel it hurt
Let me die, let me rot
I'm just a replacement for what you've lost
I know you've had better
So why am I around
Is this your idea of friendship
Or were you just getting bored
Where's my sorry for all this shit
Where's perfection, it doesn't exist
I could have been better than this
So what if I kill myself
Fuck this planet anyway
There is something beautiful
In freedom for eternity
Bodies colliding with no end in sight
Darkness, black, from whence I came
Die like a man so I can forget your face
Yesterday I stayed inside myself, I loved it
Why can't you love me the way that I love you
I know that you hate it, just tell me that you do
I've been waiting for a reason otherwise
I know you've had better
So why am I around
Is this your idea of friendship
Or were you just getting bored
Where's my sorry for all this shit
Where's perfection, it doesn't exist
I could have been better than this

You can hate me anywho
It's my fault for telling you
Some things that weren't true
I just wasn't being myself
Promise all is good and well
It's our secret, please don't tell
I drag my skin across the blade
To say how sorry I am
But I don't regret a single thing
Besides regretting everything
The look in your eyes says it all
Maybe I lied but so did you
And I know better now
And I know better now
And I know better
Better
Better

Kill Yourself

You are worth nothing now
Might as well kill yourself
You are worth nothing now
Might as well kill yourself
Undervalued, I won't be confined
Your words won't break me, I'm redefined
With raging fire I will break these chains
I'll prove you wrong and embrace my pain
Life's a fucking race against time
No second chances, no rewind
Like a flame burning bright, destined to fade
We're all just puppets in this twisted charade
(You are worth nothing now
Might as well kill yourself
You are worth nothing now
Might as well kill yourself)
Undervalued, I won't be confined
Your words won't break me, I'm redefined
With raging fire I will break these chains
I'll prove you wrong and embrace my pain
Life's too short to drown in sorrow
I'll rage against the dying light
I'll rage against the dying light

Living in shadows, I'm on the run
Hiding from the world, under the sun
Society's chains, they weigh me down
But I won't conform, won't wear that crown
Cut it out
I know why you've been hiding yourself
Once again
The world is much too treacherous, dangerous
They label me an outcast, a rebel without a cause
But I won't be silenced, I won't pause
Escaping the clutches of their conformity
I'll forge my own path, wild and free
Cut it out
I know why you've been hiding yourself
Once again
The world is much too treacherous, dangerous
'Till the day I die [x8}
In the depths of the city's decay
Among the shadows, I find my way
A fugitive from their judgment and lies
In this underground where other spirits fly
Hiding from society's blinded gaze
In the chaos, I dwell where silence plays
The machine of conformity grinds away
But I won't surrender, I won't obey
In the anarchy of my mind's terrain
I'll resist their chains, embrace the pain
Hiding from society's blinded gaze
In the chaos, I dwell where silence plays

Towards the Grain
01:54
|

Pouring shots like rain, we drown the pain
A drink or two, just to feel the same
It's a toxic dance we can't break free
Chasing highs, it's our misery
Lost in the haze, we're blind to the cost
Liquid escape, it's all we've lost
Broken dreams, shattered glass
The grip of alcohol, it holds us fast
We toast to destruction, it's all we know
Ignoring the damage, we continue to sow
Bottled demons, they're taking control
Fading into the night, losing our soul
Lost in the haze, we're blind to the cost
Liquid escape, it's all we've lost
We're tempting Fate by moving towards the grain
Turning to drink to solve our problems
So raise your glass, one last time
To the emptiness, to the decline
In this liquid prison, we're trapped, you see
Drinking our lives away, we'll never be free
So raise your glass, one last time
Ignoring the truth, we're living a lie

One day, they'll see the stage I've won
The passion, the fame, the battles I've done
I'll prove my worth, no matter the fight
This is my calling, my guiding light
I strummed my dreams on strings, took flight
With every note, I'd reach new heights
They turn a blind eye, they just don't care
Ignoring the passion that I bear
I'm screaming inside, but they won't hear
This is my world, it's crystal clear
But the family, they just can't see
The fire in my soul, the melody in me
They turn a blind eye, they just don't care
Ignoring the passion that I bear
I'll play my songs on empty streets
To prove to them this dream's no deceit
Their disapproval, a heavy weight to bear
But I'll carry on, no need to debate what is fair
Their disapproval, a heavy weight to bear
But I'll carry on, no need to debate what is fair
The semantics of the issue are a little complicated
And I'd feel castrated without the words I'm putting down on paper
And I am fueled by how much I hate her
I chased my dreams, took risks unknown,
Yet family's support, I've never known
Their lack of belief, it cuts so deep
But I'll play my heart out, even as they sleep on me
When they scorn I'll stand my ground
Their judgments won't define my fate
I'll make my mark, they'll see it's not too late
I'm breaking chains, they try to confine
Their closed minds can't hold this heart of mine
I'll play my songs on empty streets
To prove to them this dream's no deceit
How can I make a dime, I'm living free
If only you could see me now
Their disapproval, a heavy weight to bear
But I'll carry on, no need to debate what is fair
Their disapproval, a heavy weight to bear
But I'll carry on, no need to debate what is fair
So long and thanks
