Hey, you. Have you ever heard, have you ever heard of some privacy? I’m so alone. But I ain’t gonna lie it’s what I need and how I’ve always wanted it to be. Ooooooo. Give it up. Give it up. Give it up for all the damage you’ve done. Ooooooo. Give it up. Give it up for all the battles I’ve won and all the lies I’ve unstrung. And I’ve had it up to here. But you don’t care about me. So why should I give a damn about what you think? I’m getting off this train. Before I go insane. I don’t know if I’ll make it to the next station. And I know I’m in trouble. I’ve always been double crossed by a helping hand. Is this how it ends? Ooooooo. Give it up. Give it up. Give it up for all the damage you’ve done. Ooooooo. Give it up. Give it up for all the battles I’ve won and the lies! And I’ve had it up to here. But you don’t care about me. So why should I give a damn about what you think? And you might say this is just the beginning. And I might say I’m heading home. And you know. I don’t care about the risk. I don’t care about your shit. I don’t care what you think. And I don’t care about you. So I’m gonna stop. Just please make it stop. Oh please make it fucking stop. I’ve had enough. And I’ve had it up to here. But you don’t care about me. So why should I give a damn about what you think? So why should I give a damn about what you think?

VETERAN 03:54
Once upon a time. I felt more alive when I wasn’t trapped in this trench. I just wanna save my soul and oh how I miss home. But I never thought this would be how it ends. I said no more tears. No more fears. I just wanna sleep. I might rest easier at the bottom of the bay. You said Joel my boy, listen please. I need you to leave. But are you really better off without me? I’m a Veteran. And I’m falling from the sky. I’m a war hero. And you’ll never take me alive. I’m not the funny guy anymore. Use your imagination and pretend I’m out the door. I’ve had too much to drink. It makes me overthink that I’m less of a man that only wants more. I said no more tears. No more fears. I just wanna sleep. I might rest easier at the bottom of the bay. You said Joel my boy, listen please. I need you to leave. But are you really better off without me? I’m a Veteran. And I’m falling from the sky. I’m a war hero. And you’ll never take me alive. Say my name. (You probably won’t even remember it anyway.) I don’t blame you. I can’t count how many bodies I dropped that day. I haven’t been able to sleep. Lord have mercy on me! I’m a Veteran. And I’m falling from the sky. I’m a war hero. And you’ll never take me alive. So say what you want and do as you please. Just know it’s an eye for an eye. I still can’t believe you’re an ungrateful piece of shit even though I saved your life! I’m a veteran.

ONLY CHILD 03:47
If I was an only child Oh there’s not much I’d be remembered by I stick around in your mind with your kind Only for a little while. Did you ever believe that you could ever see me? Or was I just the ghost, the freak who’s displeasing. I try, I try, I try, I try, I try, I try my best to impress. But every time I try, I fall back down with the rest. If I was an only child I’d sit around for days and just be a lonely child. With thorns in my head and nails in my palms I’d cry! And you’d all stick around to watch the only child die. I’d be an only child Just like you. If I was an only child I’d sit around for days and just be a lonely child. With thorns in my head and nails in my palms I’d cry! And you’d all stick around to watch the only child die. I’d be an only child If I was an only child If I was an only child Just like you.

ROCK BOTTOM 04:10
You’re like a warning light on my dash Screaming for me to clean up my class act But I keep to telling myself Let it go, let it go, let it go... Just let me go before I get stuck. Hold my hand then lose the grip as soon as I fuck up. Yeah. It’s so obscene within the scene. Just let me go. Let me go. Let me go. I’m getting pity love from you because I don’t belong Here at the bottom of my grave. I can’t believe that it’s taken me this long. So have you found yourself some courage yet? Have you found the time to apologise? Think about you’ve done. I never got a chance to fly away. I hope you’ve had your fun. I’m getting pity love from you because I don’t belong Here at the bottom of my grave. I can’t believe that it’s taken me this long. Truth be told you’ll only miss me when I’m gone. I’m getting pity love from you because I don’t belong Here at the bottom of my grave. I can’t believe that it’s taken me this long. Truth be told you’ll only miss me when I’m gone.

Underground. That’s where the party’s been planned. I’m hoping that this will be my last one. It not the first time this has happened. I’ve made up my mind so why should I bother. Everyone says that it’s just a waste of time and so am I. We could’ve picked up the pieces together and light the candles on the cake. If I had a dollar for everytime I sang my birthday song alone, alone, alone, alone I’d go to moon. Feeling weightless. I’m hanging on to my last breathe. And I’m not expecting anyone to show. Take my time to reconcile. Killing two birds with one stone. I never thought my last wish is to not be alone, alone. Alone, alone. Alone, alone. Alone, alone. Alone, alone. Alone, alone. We could’ve picked up the pieces together and light the candles on the cake. If I had a dollar for every time I sang my birthday song alone, alone. I’m singing happy birthday alone, alone. I’m singing happy birthday alone, alone. I’m singing happy birthday alone, alone. I’m singing happy birthday I’d go the moon
