I never thought it’d be so unbelievably easy to take it all and destroy everything that you made me,//Become these walls will never be broken//I’m not sorry the words were spoken, it’s all because the way we left ourselves open!//In this paradox, you’ll take a scalpel to my chest, cut me open, leave me open for the world to see//They see me as I truly am. Heart on my sleeve? F*** That, I open my chest to you//I never thought for a second we’d be in this mess. Take a look around, I f***ing built you!//We’re holding onto something that never grow//Blight infects the last petal of this rose//Why do we do this to ourselves?//Living through a constant mirage of hope//And here we stand, contemplating every aspect of what we are and what we are to become!//But my accomplishments were never enough, (Never enough)//To accommodate some type of love, no//Tatted under my skin, lies my beating heart (My beating heart)//It’s weary, and broken, and f***ed up, exhausted//I have nothing left to ignore, no more!//And here we stand, contemplating every aspect of what we are and what we are to become!//It’s here or now, in the future or the past, I’ll take this back! I’ll take back what’s rightfully mine!//When was the last time, ‘cause I’m sure it’s the first time you ever stared into my eyes,//And looked on the inside and found out to your mind all the things I’ve survived. (I SURVIVED!)//But my accomplishments were never enough, (Never enough)//To accommodate some type of love, no. (Never enough)//This is the start of a means to an end//and this is the start of a means to an end!//You are the one, you are the whole reason that I put up with so much pain//“Agony” could be my given name. Take a second look at the clock, it’s up, time is just a moment with you!
