This is the song you always asked me to write
Well, here it is. I hope you fucking choke on these words
And with my feelings dealt, try and feel an ounce of what I felt.
Kickstart
I'm better than the others that you tried to keep undercover.
I'm not the one at fault.
Running from your responsibility, and left it with me.
And don't ever expect a fucking apology.
Without you I'm on tracks bound for the unknown, and it's beautiful.
You're on the path, but losing footing
It's straight ahead I'm looking.
You're the kickstart I needed
To put some purpose in this life I'm leading.
This is the song I've always wanted to write,
But it came out fucked up.
Now these words, still new to me,
They're setting me free.
