UNLEASH THIS RAGE

UNLEASH THIS RAGE

Forgive me Father, for I am sin
Let me unleash this rage on those who’ve created me
I am the black of night
I am the rain on your parade
I am the thorn in your side

You lie awake at night because I'm the monster under your bed
You daydream blanks because I'm what you're missing
You'll never believe it
Never admit it till your world falls down around you

Forgive me dear, for I am karma
Let me release these demons on those who've created them
I am judgment day
I am the life you deserve
I am the bullet in your head

IF ONLY YOU GAVE A DAMN

IF ONLY YOU GAVE A DAMN

I’d sacrifice my happiness for you
Because you make me happier than words can say
But you never knew just how far I’d go for you

Sometimes I think I should have chased you down
Tell you how many nights I couldn’t sleep without you next to me
Every day I couldn’t let you go even though you’re gone
If only you gave a damn

I still read the words I wrote for you
Recite them from memory
I wonder what you’d say if you knew

I’d complete your puzzle tonight
Because you make me shine brighter than the sun
But you never took off your sunglasses

I still think I should chase you down
Tell you how many times I fought myself not calling you
Every day I couldn’t tell if it was day or night without your light
If only you gave a damn

IN SEARCH OF…

IN SEARCH OF…

You never noticed what was right in front of you
The perfect life you dreamed of
The happiness that eluded you
The pain inside washed away

In search of something else
Something you knew you didn’t want
But you let stupidity get the best of you
Showed your true colors in the end
Revealed the snake in the grass that you are

You never looked at me the way I looked at you
The pipe dream I had in my head
The happiness I thought we shared
The pain in me was multiplied

In search of someone else
Someone you knew was no good for you
But you let ignorance light your way
Showed your devious ways in rare fashion
Revealed the piece of shit you really are

You never appreciated what we had
The seamless way our pieces fit
The amazing feeling inside
The journey worth the sorrow

LONG GONE

LONG GONE

I know it’s cliché, but you were my favorite mistake
I used to make you feel amazing
Used to make you laugh and snort
You used to want to run away with me
But that’s long gone
We’re long gone

I thought you were different
I believed in you when you didn’t believe in yourself
Now I don’t know what I’m doing
Don’t care where I’m going
Just floating through life on this black cloud

I put on a good show, but I’m cold inside
I was all in with you
I would’ve given you the world
I was true with every word on those pages
But that’s long gone
We’re long gone

I thought you were the one
I gave you everything when you thought the world had nothing left
Now I don’t know why you ruined everything
Don’t care where I end up
Just another place on a map without you

I know it’s pointless, but I’m not the same person I was
I used to have hope
Used to think life would turn out just fine
You used to be the light at the end of my tunnel
But that’s long gone
We’re long gone

DO ME A FAVOR

DO ME A FAVOR

You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone
But even then they just don’t care
Doesn’t matter either way
I did nothing wrong
Did everything right, but I still end up with nothing

You took the low road
And lied, cheated and stole everything from me
I should’ve seen it coming
But even then I just wanted you to want me

Doesn’t matter now
I don’t need you
Did everything for you, but I still wound up holding the bag

When you find your soul
Do the world a favor
Toss it in the ocean and walk in after it

When you find your heart
Do me a favor
Break it so you feel how I feel

CUT YOU OUT

CUT YOU OUT

When everything was wrong
You made it right
When I was down
You made me want to get up
Then you beat me down
And made me regret you

I know I’m not perfect
But no one is
I’ve closed my eyes to the world
Things look so much better now

When I told you I love you
You said “That’s cute”
Showing your true serpent shade of whore
When you told me “I’m sorry”
I heard nothing but silence

When you tore everything down
You tried to rebuild with others
When that didn’t work
You blamed me to escape the truth
Then you wanted to string me along
And forced me to cut you out
