inside Sets me a’lit, scarred and fried The aching sore, make me all
tongue-tied I don’t know if my instincts will
let me subside my thirst for the feeling that i
so desire If i deny it you can call me a
liar Something to take away the pain,
something to keep me insane Because i don’t think that I can
keep hold of my brain
anymore, anymore Tired of seeing all the scenes of
happiness It drains me of my emotions,
makes me feel sappless Anger supplements me, helps me
stay insane So that in the end I can salvage
my brain But it veritably kills me, the
migraine
no more, no more
I just want to live life in peace So that in the end the jealousy
can just cease So that I can cut out a piece Of the pie in the sky The place known as the bullseye No lie
