Lyrics
You would say anything
And you would try anything To escape your meaningless And your insignificance You're uncontrollable And we are unlovable And I don't want you to think that I care I never would, I never could again
Why can't you just love her? Why be such a monster? You bully from a distance Your brain needs some assistance But I'll still take all the blame 'Cause you and me are both one and the same And its driving me mad And its driving me mad
I'll take back all the things that I said I didn't realize I was talking to the living dead And I don't want you to think that I care I never would, I never could again
You would say anything And you would try anything To escape your meaningless And your insignificance
