lyrics

I will tell you now, never kick and shout.
It will expound exponential pain and send you underground.
Where no one can hear, constant cries and tears.
We have grown so anaesthetized to your foundless forlorn fears.
Tough love plays so rough, broken bones and lust.
You will not get what you want until your desires adjust.
All your suffering, leads to learning.
If you choose to heed the warning that your body's offering

I'll break your heart, so I can put it back together.
Stronger than ever, stronger now that you've decided.

Fall and hit the ground, instantly rebound.
take the time to soothe your sores and misfortunes they will abound
Let it all out know, swiftly not so loud.
Savor all the wrongs you've sowed and there is much more to be found.
I will help you stand, only with one hand,
careful as I lift you up for you are sinking in quicksand.
Karma is a wave, that washes over your grave.
It may not come back to you but your mark is now forever made.

I'll break your heart, so I can put it back together.
Stronger than ever, stronger now that you've decided:
To expect indifference, accept everything you fear and loathe.
Don't rub your nose in it. Don't plant it and watch it grow.

I will tell you now, pity's not profound.
Self conflated pain, give it up today.
You have wasted time, magnified my crime.
You'll be made to pay, give it up today.
