lyrics

Verse 1
I bet you thought that I was gone
I waited for so long to say
I needed to get away from the fire
You should hear what they say about me
I've become a casualty of lies
Destined by design
From a liar

PreChorus
Ignorant, no doubt
Always talking knowing nothing about

Chorus
So kill me, break me down
Because I'm finally happy
I'm sorry if i was wrong
I was barely living
I felt buried alive
I was dead on the inside
And you weren’t there for me
Better late than never
To find out how it was supposed to be

Verse 2
Imagine all the damage hypocrites have done
Self proclaimed priests and virgin nuns
Look down just for an excuse
To abuse you
I'm so glad i got the chance to see
Who doesn't mean shit and who was there for me
They shut down all the rumors and lies
Innocence dies

PreChorus
Ignorant no doubt
Always talking knowing nothing about

Chorus
So kill me, break me down
Because I'm finally happy
I'm sorry if i was wrong
I was barely living
I felt buried alive
I was dead on the inside
And you weren’t there for me
Better late than never
To find out how it was supposed to be

Heavy Ending
Liar, Liar, Liar, why’d you have to
Lie, Lie, Lie, tearing down my
Life, Life, Life, why’d you have to go and kill us all
