lyrics

I’m beginning to think that this is it. For all we know,
Progression has slammed to a halt. I’m left to fear for the kids
That we try to raise on these same values that we’re distorting
More and more every day.
So, Raise your glass and waste your life away.
Live for the times that you can never remember,
And it’s like you never lived at all. And you’re
Responsible for all the choices you make
But you’re acting like you’ve never heard the word before.
I don’t think you understand the meaning of blame.

Your life is empty.
How can you justify your actions
By simply claiming that you don’t remember them?
You glorify regrets. You admire mistakes.
And living without consequence.

But you’re just a privileged fuck that assumes
That you deserve everything you’ve never worked for.
And you’re just a privileged fuck that removes
Yourself from consciousness just to fit a norm.

A new mother, a deadbeat father
A night in jail, or fucking drowned in the water.
When she said no, you know you shouldn’t have fought her.
But that’s the motto, you all live without honour.

I can’t relate to this anymore.
But now I know what I’m fighting for.
I don’t need you to understand
I’ve made up my mind.

I’ll never justify my actions
By simply blaming them on my will to forget.
No glory in regrets. I learn from my mistakes.
And accept the fucking consequence.
