about
this is a Pen
lyrics
Well he cuts his teeth on broken glass
he fears the future and the past
because only the bad memories last
the good ones fade away so
all of the places and people that matter to him
replaced by a creeping dread of nothing in particular
so open my vein, let it pour out, into the drain, till it's empty but
I don't mean it, or anything ever, so just forget I exist cause I'm
waiting, wasted drunk on my thoughts at 4 AM
thrown out, thrown away way past my expiration date
so I'm hateful, hated, killing myself inside my head
broken, breaking, writing corrections in red pen
cut from the cloth of all my mistakes, they're serrated
and you'd do well to steer right clear, cause I'm jaded
can't control all of these awful intrusive thoughts
and they cut and they cut away at all that's left of me
so put it to flame, till it collapses, erase the stain, scatter the ashes
I don't mean it, or anything ever, so just forget I exist
because I'm waiting, wasted, drunk on my thoughts at 4 am
thrown out, thrown away, way past my expiration date
so I'm hateful, hated, killing myself inside my head
compulsive, obsessive, cross out confessions in red pen
I know you've heard it all before, but I don't wana let you down
this time I'm writhing on the floor, but I don't wana let you down
以上です。
