The What Nows?! - Braindead

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1992859
No respect, no shallow threat
Come near me again I'll break your neck
Et tu Danny? You cut so deep
In my veins the same blood you bleed
I kept you close. Closer than most
Noose around my throat, you pulled the rope
Sociopath, don't make me laugh
I just see Dad behind that mask
Forget you lived. Do not forgive
What you did to me when we were kids
No save the date. No final wake
Already dead in my brain

Looking back to looking up
When roles reversed you couldn't cope
Look around and now we'rе fucked
From here on out you'rе on your own

Mattress and sheets, where I did sleep
Unbeknownst to me that so did she
To you a game, have you no shame?
Rub it in my face? We share names
To what extent could we stay friends
Please comprehend this consequence
Not down the road. Arms length too close
Can not let go. This grudge I hold
Lie after lie. Fake tear filled eyes
Almost lost my life to those headlights
Sanity intact. I can't retract
The final act, here's to the past
Looking back to looking up
When roles reversed you couldn't cope
Look around and now we're fucked
From here on out you're on your own

Forget you lived. Do not forgive
What you did to me when we were kids
No save the date. No final wake
Already dead in my brain
Continue to miss me. That punishment fits nicely
In case you’re listening. Know that you weren’t worth missing
