Bastards By Nature

you never owned me, right?
you never owned my rights
you're bastards by nature
you're clapping but this is just another song about human tragedy that you face, human tragedy you can't erase
she still feels pain, you seek more gain, she can't feel again
you salt her wound, i won't see you, i won't lose
scars, scars her face was covered in scars
i was once scared for the future, now i repent for my past
yet we've created this world in our heads
it's far less frightening
you've sealed my wounds, i can feel you, i can hear you
i can love again, i can die again, i can live

serendipity
never meant a thing to me
apologies
what you said, what you did
always hurt deep inside
like how i said how i didn't care
when i couldn't give a damn about you
i thought i did
like you said you would
mediocrity
you always told me to put my best efforts in
i thought i was, you said i was just fine
or did you just lie like you always did?
like you said we were once friends
i'm never talking to you again
you're a parasite, you thought you just might
again

Old Friend

you're completely lost, you need some help
yet refuse to obtain it
your mouth is dried for your words cannot buy you any luck to this world
you say no one cares, but no one would even dare to listen
but the truth is they do
i'll call you selfish, i'll call you lost, i'll call you insane, i'll call you scared
but don't you dare say i never cared
i stood right next to you when no one else would yet you pushed me away
my words you refuse to obey but one day
you'll regret denying what i say
when i see you lay dead on the floor

i could hear the vibrations from your brain as they knocked me out and concussed me
and all i keep on thinking, all i keep on asking was
"was he tasteless or was it just the sin?"
going back to that time reminds me of descending from the planet we call grief
what time does the sun come up? i'm not even sure anymore
i've never seen the world outside of where i've been
you're disconnecting, he's disconnecting, please stop disconnecting from me
she told me that the thunder sounded just like the bombs that hit back home
that hit the misplaced theaters
it's not an excuse, its a justification
hopefully one day i can be your nostalgia
missing boy, 1985
your music's good but you just sound like everybody else in this scene
we havent spoke in months but your songs still put me to sleep
where capitalism meets creativity, is it still a dangerous place to be?
she saw no stars in the sky for weeks

i watched you die a thousand times in your head
if i apologized for everything that i said, i'd rather be found dead in some stranger's bed
and i'm so sorry for what i've said to you, what i've done to you, and what you've done to me
what did he say, baby, what did he say?
why can't he call when he's always away?
what can't you stay, oh why can't you stay?
why can't he call when he's all MIA?
if you don't wanna leave her, then don't leave her
if you feel trapped then boy, don't you look back
but goddamn if you were to let me talk i'd have stories to tell
and if you cut up my insides i bet they would as well
she doesn't know a language besides manipulation and retaliation
it's chewing gum and hunting rabbits all over again, my dear
what did he say, baby, what did he say?
why can't he call when he's always away?
what can't you stay, oh why can't you stay?
why can't he call when he's all MIA?
you watched me die two thousand more times in your head
and i'm not sorry for what i've said to you, what i've done to you, and what you've done to me
it was all oh so genuine
so please just let me in
what did he say, baby, what did he say?
why can't he call when he's always away?
what can't you stay, oh why can't you stay?
why can't he call when he's all MIA?
you touched me to cry a thousand more times in my head
and he's so sorry for what he's said to you, what he'll do to you, and what he's done to me
