lyrics

It started with a match
It started with a wish
I wanted every piece of this
Far fucked and over-rated
Carving smiles ‘cause we lost our own
Already on to our next abortion
Crippled, sick, and all alone
World in my hands
Hands on my back
The truth is slipping through the cracks
World in my hands
Hands on my back
I’m letting go to watch it smash!

Hey! Violence is golden
Abuse is control
I thought I found a savior
Just another hole
Hey! Violence is golden
Ignorance bliss
Well I found the answer
In my fist

It started with a push
It ended with a stitch
I thought I would have killed for this
Dumbed down and manipulated
Passenger to my own demise
Dipped out and irritated
I burn myself because my bridges are gone
Feed the fire!
Take me higher!
Kiss the liar!
