Lyricz:

There's a shadow just behind me. Shrouding every step I take. 
Making every promise empty. Pointing every finger at me. 
Waiting like a stalking butler, who upon the finger rests. 
Murder now the path of must we, just because the son has come. 

Jesus, won't you ***ing whistle. Something but the past is done. 

Why can't we not be sober? I just want to start this over. 
Why can't we drink forever? I just want to start this over. 

I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile. 
I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well. 
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave. 
I will work to elevate you, just enough to bring you down. 

Mother Mary, won't you whisper. Something but the past is done. 

Why can't we not be sober? I just want to start this over. 
Why can't we sleep forever? I just want to start this over. 

I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile. 
I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well. 
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave. 
Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. 

Why can't we not be sober. I just want to start things over. 
Why can't we sleep forever. I just want to start this over. 

I want what I want... 
I want what I want... 
I want what I want... 
I want what I want...
