Well I bet you thought you'd never see my face around this place again, and I've had some time to run over every single word I've spoken. Do I make your blood run cold, the same way that you do to me? What am I still fighting for? it's time we had an evolution. Instead of pointing fingers at the ones who helped me all along, I'll take a different approach; I was the problem from the start. I've blocked it out all I can, I'm only human, after all. I'd show you how I'm doing, but I don't know who I am, anymore. I give up, I swear, you win. You'll never have to put up with me again.

Albatross 03:20
You had your hands around my neck, It's about time that you left me for dead. You know, it's liberating not having you judge my every move. I am in my darkest hour, Maybe I was born to suffer. Death and I go hand in hand, You'll never see the light of day again. There's not enough room here for the two of us. For you this will be a one way trip. The days of following you blindly are over, I do not call to you, I'll never bow to you. I will disregard everything That I've been taught all of my life. Actions speak louder than words, And I won't go out without a fight. You may win the battle, But I will win the war. You're just a shadow of your former self. You are not the one I knew, You're the embodiment of something else. The days of following you blindly are over, I do not call to you, I'll never bow to you. (x2) And in my darkest hour, I guess I was made to suffer. Death and I go hand in hand, My life is now free without you.

Entitlement 04:08
This isn't quite what I wanted in the end Is this my sorry excuse for a life? I have this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach That I failed you For the last time Even though I was miserable at best I convinced myself that You were what I needed You were what I craved and That was bullshit Finally I see right through it How could I be so clueless? Well I think I'm entitled to more Than this life that you've imposed on me I think it's time for change Wake up and smell the ashes This life's been wasted by every single thing you've said I bit off more than I could chew It's not that complicated Don't make this harder than it has to be We've created a cancer for which there is no remedy We've made this life for ourselves I don't think there is any escape You're fucking killing me Hear me out, this is the last time I gave you everything and you aren't here You left me all alone And I was so Naive I thought that we'd survive You were my last mistake If only I knew the outcome from the start If only I saw what had to happen This isn't what I signed up for Won't you take me home where I belong? (x3) This isn't what I signed up for, Oh god won't you take me home?
