[Breakdown 1] Prying eyes staring with hunger Wondering if am I done yet I’d cut your nose off, it is too a bit long And of course I won’t apologize [Pre-Chorus 1] My art - my burden My triumph - my pain My vision - wasted My nature - changed My art - my burden My triumph - my pain My vision is distorted I’m an image of myself [Chorus 1] These motifs sound too hollow and bleak How much must I lay in sorrow and bleed? Hoping that one day I’ll grow up and hear My own creation that pleases my ears [Verse 2] I’m done with counting my mistakes I don’t want to grieve, I don’t need “should’ve, could’ve” What’s done has been done, there is only way forward I don’t know what I’m doing and I’m here to own it Force my way through despite all the loud mouths Or are you jealous of me making a name for myself? I see what you’re doing, all I do is despise it You’re gossiping while I am trying to run things I never was good and it made me get better You never was good and it made you surrender All my life I was hiding, hopeless and spiteful But at twenty five I have finally manned up There is no more pity, no worry, no panic I’m all by myself with a burden to carry [Breakdown 2] Lying eyes are popping out Big bright flashes and seeing red Sewn your mouth shut, now we’re even Your words cut and I’m low on blood Cursing your own kind why would you Cutting me off you won’t get it [Pre-Chorus 2] My art - my burden My triumph - my pain My vision - wasted My nature - changed My art - my burden My triumph - my pain My vision is distorted I’m an image of myself [Chorus 2] These motifs sound too hollow and bleak How much must I lay in sorrow and bleed? Hoping that one day I’ll grow up and hear My own creation that pleases my ears [Breakdown 3] Why won’t you learn I’m so over it, you are on your own This is goodbye I’m so over it, I’m cutting all my ties My life, my art, I am not your part My life, my art, I cut you out #darkcabinstudios #jacoblizotte #metal
