Tried And True

Your brother is a serial killer
You had your father murdered
And you almost stabbed your boyfriend to death
That's a pretty strong reaction to with

Looking back, it’s funny
All the lies that kept me down
My emotions, were battered
And I shrank in sound

A hate-fuelled focus
Pushes me to overcome
The pain you caused me
Pain which I
Will never succumb to
My path is forever set

There is only, ever one word
When I fucking think of you
Coward, you’re a coward, tried and true
You know, we all see you, and what you do

For all the times you let me down
Your joy is lost and never found
Never found

Fuck

You took me from, my sanity
You greased the walls
And lit the match

Up in flames, went clarity
Pleasing you, my own mistake

But I am still breathing without you
I am still searching
I am still yearning

For all the times you let me down
Your joy is lost and never found
Never found
