Mr. Chainsaw(Live)

When was it that you sold your youth or traded
For something more for them to use so jaded?
Why is it that you never said
Love you more than just a friend?
Pray this gridlock never ends
When we get there just depends

Found out recently that you are leaving
"For good, I hope," I softly tell my ceiling
It's better now to be alive
Sleeping is my 9 to 5
Having nightmares all the time
Of running out of words that rhyme

Everything that you could never say would never matter anyway
I took a hammer and two nails to my eardrums long ago
Before that steak knife took my eyes, I looked up to the sky
For the last thing I would ever see, for the last time I'd cry

When was it that you sold your life or wasted
Every bite of that small slice you never tasted?
Guess I should be one to talk
There's nights that I can't even walk
There's days I couldn't give a fuck
In between is where I'm stuck

Blocks away, I heard somebody screaming
Small child inside of you that you left bleeding
Stabbed him up, not once, but twice
Cubicles will now suffice
Say it's the roll of the dice
Think they're wrong, I know I'm right

Every breath that I could barely breathe
Would barely make it past my teeth
I took a blowtorch to both of my lungs a long, long time ago
Every step that I could take
Each one more difficult to make
Mr. Chainsaw came and took my leg a long, long time ago
Yes, ago
In case you're wondering, I'm singing
About growing up, about giving in
In case you're wondering, I'm singing
About growing up, about giving in

In case you're wondering, we're singing
About growing up, about giving in
In case you're wondering, we're singing
About growing up, about giving up and giving in

Thank you
Alright
We're gonna carry on with my best Peter Brady impersonation
Try this
