Before I Go

Hello there

Open the floodgates, let them in

Looks like the sheep have fangs

I see the witch hunts, the vendettas

I know every word they'll say

Like vultures, like rodents, breeding disease

Every moment you draw breath now is mercy from me

Let the sky fall, you’re standing pretty tall

It's all fun and games, but you poisoned the well

And now you can't even tell

I can’t control their hatred

I can only face my own

So while I walk on this higher path

Won't you take me to your place in the depths that you own?

Just take a look at the hate and the pain in your heart

Let it drive you insane or turn it back into art

You think you know me

You think you know me, but you don't, don't, don't

You should have went for my throat

No one can say that I didn't earn this

Don't you fucking tell me that I don't deserve this

I gave it all up just to return

The love that I lost, the lessons I have learned

I can’t control their hatred

I can only face my own

So while I walk on this higher path

Won’t you take me to your place in the depths that you own?

Just take a look at the hate and the pain in your heart

Let it drive you insane or turn it back into art

I've seen this bitterness a hundred times before

Hello there, you only wish you’d done more
