1.
Here's to uselessness. A serenade for the young and the hopeless. I have given up on life. All I do is waste my fucking time. I have given up on love. And here's to the emptiness above. And I'll be counting the days until you come and change my ways. So come and change my ways. We're all fucked.
2.
Another day wasted. Life is passing me by. Fucked up once again. But at least I try. Grinding my teeth until my jaws bleed. I try but I keep on failing. Tonight I feel like making mistakes. There's blood on my fists yet I can't seem to fight my dreams. How can one walk tall during the day when one can't get no sleep? Pissing my life away, every day, 'cause I can't take the pain. I am waiting to be expected, a never-ending circle of tragedies to come, but tonight I don't care about the mess, tonight I feel like fucking up.
3.
I'm setting sail to unconquered seas, following these trails you've left me. There is no future in separation. I see no point in loneliness. This cancer keeps feeding on my heart. This illness lives inside me. A haunting image of what we'll never be. These roads seem to lead nowhere. I'm sick of facing dead ends. You should never have left. I should never have slept. I'm setting sail towards this black sea, following these trails you're leaving me. There lies no future in your plastic vessel, I see no point to this life. Now all there is left is a hole in my chest. But when I close my eyes there's a hole in the sky. You're standing next to me. I can't see your face and I can't feel my feet. Depression, wonderfull depression. We will live forever.
4.
Pressure is rising. But still we stand strong. They'll bring their knives. But we'll bring the guns. Broken bones. But no pain. Where all will fall we shall remain. Justice will reign. I am an outlaw. Proud of who I am. Part of something bigger. You'll never understand. Unity.
5.
Everything is falling apart. Massive crowd but no brains, no hearts. Close my eyes, shut my mouth. Blend in, fade out. Thinking of letting go. Everyone knows I won't accomplish my goals. Want to try but it seems so hard. Thinking of giving up. No pity. No explanations. I won't be part of these hopeless generations. Won't live the life of a worm, shoving my head in the ground with every sound I hear. I'd rather lose it all than to let it go, another victim to this endless status quo. There is no hope. There is no love. But I won't let go. I won't give up.
6.
Every bridge we've ever crossed has been burnt. Now there's no way back. You lay your fingers on my lips but still I pronounce my deathwish. The disappointment in your eyes. The blood that flows from these lies. My love, the closer we get, the further we are from one another. There is no easy way out. Just sing me back to sleep. Know that my heart forever you'll keep. The day you broke your vows you broke my heart. Now distrust rules this barren land. You've become another vulture. Another nail in my hand. Everything we had is now lost. I'll sing another serenade. "The bigger the crime, the higher the cost" Close your eyes and sleep. Your eyes are blue and the water is deep.
7.
Put off your mask. Take one step back. You can no longer hide. Your skin won't lie. Faceless. Toothless. Your entire life is a mess. Now where are your friends at? You speak so much of loyalty but all your words mean shit to me. All I hear is a serpent's tongue, the air being pushed out of your black lungs. Fuck this life. Fuck your vice. At least I still have my pride. You're nothing but a dancing harlot. A walking grave
8.
Growing up seems so hard. These mean streets don't have no hearts. I can't wait to leave it all behind. Weight of the world is on my shoulders, I'm trying to feel, but I'm growing colder. I am lost and drowning in this disappointment. Every day I make mistakes. Every night I dig my grave. Watch cars pass, forget my past. Cut out the sickness while I pray for forgiveness. Bring out the ropes. Let's hang these ghosts. I hate this town. These broken bones. Life seems so beautiful under the Californian sun, But I have lost more than I have won. No dreams. Only lies. One ugly truth. Everything dies.
9.
Air's so thick that I can't breathe. Mind's so scarred that I can't sleep. But you'll never get the best of me. Feels like I'm living with this weight tied to my legs. Feels like I'm breathing with her hands around my neck. It's the same pain over and over again. Trying to find my way but the lights are blinding my eyes. I can't see, I can't feel. Trying to find my way but the lights are blinding my eyes. I can't see, I can't feel, want to scream but my mouth runs dry. Clouds turn black and the sun burns my skin. I'm so afraid from what lies within you. Behold the carcass of my former self. I'm leaving to become someone else. Blood on the walls, blood on the floor, I'm shutting you out, I'm closing the door. Blood.
10.
We never said we were going to make things right, we're only here to tell you that you are wrong.
