lyrics

Paragraph structured.
Sentences aligned.
Settle with the wine. Unsteady.
Hands are so cold.
Gripping on the man-made handgun.
Shoot me with your man-made handgun.
Your deadly with your black-painted handgun, and if only I could have one...
I would damage your word. It was held so close.
The letter is mine, and I'm far from yours.
Gone, obscured.
Not so torn.
Not so torn.
Not so torn.
The shot broke skin inside the fox-hole - swore that it was home.
The cut umbilical cord proves that I'm alone.
Well enough to shake your hand here.
Fear? Steer the car into the deer.
Punch it to the eightees.
Bottle full of beer.
Windshield cracked.
Shards of your rear-view smashed.
I laugh at the victim of the crash.
Staring down while I'm still up on the dash'.

You paved the way for me, and all I had to say was please.
Thank you.
It's a clean-slate for me, and now I'm in the lead, holding onto an apology. (x4)

But, it tastes bittersweet.
Tastes like everything I hate.
I spit it out and leave this place.
Yeah, I need a break.
Release me from reality's fate.
And I'm gone.
And I'm gone...
