Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Help me if you can
It's just that this
This is not the way I'm wired
So could you please
Help me understand why
You're giving in to all these
Reckless dark desires
[Verse 2]
You're lying to yourself again
Suicidal imbecile
Now think about it
You're pounding on the fault line
[Verse 3]
What'll it take to get it through to you, precious?
I'm over this
Why do you wanna throw it away like this?
Such a mess
Why would I wanna watch you
[Verse 4]
Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time
What's your rush now?
Everyone will have his day to die
[Verse 5]
Medicated
Drama queen
Picture perfect numb belligerence
Narcissistic
Drama queen
Craving fame and all its decadence
[Verse 6]
Lying through your teeth again
Suicidal imbecile
Now think about it
You're pounding on the fault line
[Verse 7]
What'll it take to get it through to you, precious?
I'm over this
Why do you wanna throw it away like this?
Such a mess
Why would I wanna watch you
[Verse 8]
Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time
What's your rush now?
Everyone will have his day to die
[Verse 9]
They were right about you
They were right about you
[Verse 10]
Lying to my face again
Suicidal imbecile
Now think about it
You're pounding on the fault line
[Verse 11]
What'll it take to get it through to you, precious?
I'm over this
Why do you wanna throw it away like this?
Such a mess
Over this
Over this
[Verse 12]
Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time
What's your hurry?
Everyone will have his day to die
[Verse 13]
If you choose to pull the trigger
Should your drama prove sincere
Do it somewhere far away from here
