Lyrics

Verse 01:
Pushed back into myself, mental health declines
as I try to find peace of mind, in a climate so volatile
it makes you scared to smile
never feel the warm embrace, only warmth I feel
is the tears running down my face
thoughts make me feel so intense, losing common sense
burning bridges, putting up another fence
you see me laughing and joking, cause I play it cool
on the inside I ain't even smiling at all
I'm fragile and broken, like every word spoken
is seen as a fight I'm provoking, but you don't listen
I'm choking on my failures and inhibition
spending nights staring at the ceiling
just wishing
looking into the abyss, wondering how am I gonna end this?
I know I shouldn't listen, but you can't let it go
and every opportunity, is just to let me know
so that when I wake up tomorrow...
I know the routine that's gonna follow
Chorus:
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I cant show
You crossed the line, so there's no coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I can't show
Gonna make a pact, so your never coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
Verse 02:
Always treated like the black sheep, so I keep
to myself, ill health made me fall into a deep depression
my mum's kept stressing, telling me to stop the way I'm thinking
and it would start, as soon as she was drinking
every other day, with no way to escape
should i succumb to suicide and seal my fate?
there's too much satisfaction from a selfish action
she was so deceitful, with an act for other people
cause when we're alone, she's telling me I'm evil
physical pain, masking the shame, making me feel less insane...
but these problems still continue
how could I forgive you?
with all that shit you did, cause even now
your the one who still acts like a kid
blaming me for my pops being dead
and you wonder why I got these thoughts that run around
inside of my head?
you wanna question the things I do
so tell me who's the evil one now?
Is it me or is it really YOU?
Chorus:
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I cant show
You crossed the line, so there's no coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I can't show
Gonna make a pact, so your never coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
Verse 03:
It's hard to express the way you feel, when it feels so unreal
with an ego that's fragile to the touch
and everything's too much, it's getting out of control
I'm sinking even deeper into this mother fucking hole
hoping that the last times, the last time
it lays dormant in my mind, while the pain echos inside
tears fill my eyes as I go to say the goodbyes to this life I despise
that's when I woke up and recognised
it's me that gives you power, I gave you the control
you can break my heart, but you can't take my soul
it's time to find a way out of this nightmare,
so go and hate me all you want, because I really don't care
tonight I'll cut you off, I think it's time for you to go
and just because I'm broken, don't mean I can't grow
I'll pick up the pieces like I always do,
I'd pick up yours too, but you'll never change... So fuck you
Chorus:
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I cant show
You crossed the line, so there's no coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
I gotta cut off, I gotta let it go
Got scars on the outside, and some I can't show
Gonna make a pact, so your never coming back
Tonight I'm gonna put you in a body bag
