Maybe I'm right when I say that love is only lust in disguise And the romance is nothing but plastic, replaceable like it's a fashion trend I know that it's not something you want to admit And we all would love if it could be what we envisioned when we all were kids If you worry bout the past, you'll never be present Just walk forward, breathe and learn the new methods Pop the red pill, just expect the worst outcome Reality can't always be what we asked for I had a conflict, had to stop it, I ran in some circles got nauseous I found my way out of the moshpit The blood on my lip tells the story of it all It all went south when I put someone before me Just don't cry about it now cause tomorrow's not guaranteed Caution to the wind, no feathers I burned that stupid letter I did some things I regret, and I'm shameful that I did But it's over with and done So all I can do is run with the knowledge that I've gained and illuminate more than ever Nine lives waste away so easily, don't let it I haven't seen you happy in a minute I wrote this for myself, I just hope I don't forget it I've been drunk way too much, sober too little I can now see everything at once
