lyrics

Come closer,
I’m here to deny you.
Showing off your sorrow
only leads me to despise you.

Pay no attention
to the banging at the doors.
You’ve lost everything we gave you.
Why should we trust you with more?

Come all this way
just to get knocked down.
Live through a thousand deaths
you won’t work your way around.

Kept you alone.
Ignored your shouts.
We won’t give you
something else to cry about.


So don’t say it’s the end of the world
when tears stream from your eyes.
Every rung on your ladder’s broken.
And I can’t say that I’m surprised.

And I won’t forget your sorrow.
I won’t forget how it came to be.
This is the path that you have chosen.
And I won’t treat you like royalty.


You’re dark in bright light,
you’re not that subtle.
At every little obstacle,
you hit the floor and scuttle away.

What’s tomorrow
if you’re gone today?
You wouldn’t be around
to hear a single word we say.

Live life low,
forget all your mistakes.
Won’t learn a thing no matter
how many times it takes.

Always surrounded,
they’ve singled you out.
Just to give you
something else to cry about.


So don’t say it’s the end of the world
when tears stream from your eyes.
Every rung on your ladder’s broken.
And I can’t say that I’m surprised.

And I won’t forget your sorrow.
I won’t forget how it came to be.
You know damn well how you got here.
And I won’t treat you like royalty.


So don’t say it’s the end of the world
when tears stream from your eyes.
Every rung on your ladder’s broken.
And I can’t say that I’m surprised.

And I won’t forget your sorrow.
I won’t forget you’re the one at fault.
You know damn well how you got here.
It’s just something to cry about.

So don’t say it’s the end of the world
when tears stream from your eyes.
Every rung on your ladder’s broken.
And I can’t say that I’m surprised.

And I won’t forget your sorrow.
I won’t forget you’re the one at fault.
I can’t help what fate we have now.
It’s just something to cry about.
