[Intro]

You wanna play games?

Alright, I'll play your fucking games

[Verse 1]

The noose awaits your throat

We Struggle

Fighting for our paradise

We lick our wounds

The soul has met its darkest night

Terrorized, abandoned left for desolation

Bastardized, traumatized

Dreams to rot in indignation

All this hell we wish we could have never known

Scars our backs and leaves us with spirits torn

The abuse, I've felt this before

I’m getting used to the anger I can't ignore

[Refrain]

Abusive; born of rage

Illusive; acts of pain

Controlling; sinking in

The noose; swings again

[Chrous]

The noose

Waiting

For your throat

At the end

Fuck your afflictions and every ounce of hurt that clipped my wings

You’re the number one suspect to the lowly states and the suffering

This lonely festering felt like the safest place

I thank you for all the scars, now you can rot away

[Bridge]

Reap what you sow

Empty and alone

Tripping on your precious ego

Watch it all topple

Watch it crumble

We all see you hiding with your shame and blame

In a cold dark hole where you don’t have to show your face

I've grown, I've changed

Yet you’ve stayed the same

Your pride and judgement

Will follow you into the grave

[Outro]

How can you justify

Your endless need for affliction?

Innocence lost in anger

A testament to all the hate you carry

Nothing left for you

Calling out for help

The bridges burned have stranded you

Nothing left for you

Empty and alone

Atonement’s waiting

Fuck forgiveness or pity

The noose has called your name

Choking on the weight you carry

Gagging on your shame

How can you justify

Your endless need for affliction?

Innocence lost in anger

A testament to all the hate you carry

As I let go of this feeling

I salt my wounds and clot the bleeding

To forgive myself and define the reasons

To quell the pain until our light shall fade
