lyrics

I'd love if you could share with me some insight
on how the fuck you can manage to sleep at night.
I bet you hide under your covers from guilt and fright.
You know I'm on the hunt now.
Don't you turn the lights out.

Ad hominem is on lockdown.
Not for a second does that mean I've given up my crown.
It’s not over until we're, both of us, beneath the ground.
And don’t even expect me
to ever say I’m sorry.

Who starts it
Who ends it
Who fucking cares?


It's been so hard just to cover my mouth,
but you don't know what you're talking about.
This debate strains every talk,
Day after Day, Right after Wrong.

It’s been so hard holding everything in
And told-you-so's are just a sign I've worn thin
Take a chance, and I'll hear.
"Dear god, you were right all along."

Right all along.

What's taking you so long.


I've always thought that the world fucking hates me.
Need an anchor to tether me to sanity.
Chains scraping against the ground angrily.
My tolerance is captive.
Too late for retroactive thoughts.

Outburst unrehearsed.
You'll get the sharp end of the stick when it's at it's worst.
Drive myself into the ground because you come first.
Expectations are a nightmare.
Guess what else is unfair.


Who starts it?
Who ends it?
Who brings it up day after day?
Who loves it?
who hates it?
Who cares?


It's been so hard just to cover my mouth,
but you don't know what you're talking about.
This debate strains every talk,
Day after Day, Right after Wrong.

It’s been so hard holding everything in
And told-you-so's are just a sign I've worn thin
because eventually, I'll hear.
"Dear god, you were right all along."

Right all along.

What's taking you so long.


At wit's end without a doubt.
My patience is running out.
Arguing in circles,
and nothing gained.

You call yourself a die hard.
Let me call you a try hard.
So we don't think the same.
Your clawing at my brain,
and driving me insane.



It's been so hard just to cover my mouth,
but you don't know what you're talking about.
This debate strains every talk,
Day after Day, Right after Wrong.

It’s been so hard holding everything in
And told-you-so's are just a sign I've worn thin
take a chance, and you’ll see
Dear god, I was right all along.

Right all along.

I was fucking right all along.

So what's taking you so long.
