Violent Ends

It's cold at sundown
Breathing air
That I can't push back out
I should calm down
Best play of my hand
Cause silence is so loud

Would you notice, Would you notice me
If I'm falling, If I beg and plead for attention
Lord knows I need
Or Is glory, just another means
To the focus, oh, I guess I need
Would you notice, notice me

I won't say I don't care what they think of me
I won't say I don't want to be feared
Rest my faith in my name how they speak of it
Violent ends (violent ends)
I can't be just a one on some jealous shit
I can't be those who kill to be killed
Callously I won't be insignificant
Violent ends (violent ends)

Hoping in time
All the severed spaces
Would come back aligned
And my confidence
Will set my heart right
All delight to fire when I fall back so vile

So I hold it, oh, I hold it deep
All the motives they could bury me
And I'm nervous, about what you'll see

I won't say I don't care what they think of me
I won't say I don't want to be feared
Rest my faith in my name how they speak of it
Violent ends (violent ends)
I can't be just a one on some jealous shit
I can't be those who kill to be killed
Callously I won't be insignificant
Violent ends (violent ends)

I don't resemble
The look on my face
The same things I build up
The same things I break
It feels sentimental
To cage love away
The same things I build up
The same things I break

I won't say I don't care what they think of me
I won't say I don't want to be feared
Rest my faith in my name how they speak of it
Violent ends (violent ends)
I can't be just a one on some jealous shit
I can't be those who kill to be killed
Callously I won't be insignificant
Violent ends (violent ends)
