Defending This Suicide


All these things you hate so much
Are the things that make you tick
Wings to fly you high through life
While the rest just make you sick

Carried through the fading light
With your meanings built so tall
Never once to disappear
Until your stars begin to fall
It makes you feel so small

If I just wanted to fake it then I would now
But then you'll forsake it, taking it in somehow
Irrational thoughts colliding to run and hide
Forcing my hand, defending this suicide
It wasn't the plan, defending this suicide

All the lives you criticize
In the end they'll drive you mad
With fake ideals you strain to keep
It's pathetic and it's sad

Watch them come and pass you by
As your lies all stay the same
Stretched in your heart to find yourself
In a conflict with your brain
There's always someone else to blame

If I just wanted to fake it then I would now
But then you'll forsake it, taking it in somehow
Irrational thoughts colliding to run and hide
Forcing my hand, defending this suicide
It wasn't the plan, defending this suicide

Stop and wait a minute now
Look at all the tears you've wept
With so many still preventable
Forced from secrets that you've kept

Where's the past? It's far past due my friend
Pressing hard, it's coming through again

If I just wanted to fake it then I would now
But then you'll forsake it, taking it in somehow
Irrational thoughts colliding to run and hide
Forcing my hand, defending this suicide
It wasn't the plan, defending this suicide

Where's the past? It's far past due my friend
Pressing hard, it's coming through again
