I am done pretending You have failed to find what's left I will suck you dry again Some are not worth saving You are such a pretty mess I will choke the life within Now you want to take me down As if I even care I am the monster in your head And I thought you'd learn by now It seems you haven't yet I am the venom in your skin And now your life Is broken After the lights go out on you After your worthless life is through I will remember how you scream I can't afford to care I can't afford to care I am suffocating You have failed to pull me in I will drag you down again Life is unrelenting Feeding lies into my head I will feed the lies you live Now you want to take me down As if I even care I am the monster in your head And I thought you'd learn by now It seems you haven't yet I am the venom in your skin And now your life Is broken After the lights go out on you After your worthless life is through I will remember how you scream I can't afford to care I can't afford to care After the lights go out on you After your worthless life is through I will remember how you scream I can't afford to care I can't afford to care I can't afford to care I can't afford to care
