The Villain 01:44
So now I'm branded as the Villain, pitchforks are all gathered they're storming up my mountains It's easy to hide, it's easy to brand me as that guy Who took everything from you, you've got to see your consequences You made your bed, lie in it Yeah you got to be a man, take responsibility You want to be a man, don't try to be tough Your unsolved history, bleeding through your walk You don't know me, or who the fuck I am

Generations 03:40
I wake up abandoned, in my childhood home All I've lost documented around me Those I've lost cemented in my god damn memories Circa 8 years ago When we lost you We lost ourselves I know I lost myself To make it back I had to fight I had to claw I had to crawl To make it back I had to burn it all down Yeah To make it back I had to burn it all down I don't how to pick myself up When everytime you do, you knock me right in my shins You knock me to my knees Everytime I fight, everytime I crawl, everytime I claw I wake up, and I start again I start again You were the glue You kept us together Yeah Just look at how we turned out Part of me is glad, you never seen all this The other part, wishes you would stop all this I don't how to pick myself up When everytime you do, you knock me right in my shins You knock me to my knees Everytime I fight, everytime I crawl, everytime I claw I wake up, and I start again I start again I start again I wake up abandoned and everything is burning All the memories, they're all burning It's all gonna burn We're gonna burn it down We're all gonna burn it down 'Cause I want it gone, yeah I want it gone We're all gonna burn it down When everytime you do, you knock me right in my shins You knock me to my knees Everytime I fight, everytime I crawl, everytime I claw I wake up, and I start again I start again I start again

Bound by blood, but we're torn by hate Our mentors will be spinning in their fucking graves We've said hurtful things, but you've crossed the line Burning bridges, you've lost your blood line You fought with everything You fought with everyone You let your life get fucked They woke up and now they're gone They're fucking gone Have you forgotten all they taught us? You've lost your way Have you forgotten all they taught us? It'll never be the fucking same Have you forgotten all they taught us? You have no god damn right, to bare their name I found support, you've never dreamed of He found support you've never dreamed of We stick through think and thin And please, realise, the true impact of what you did He's not here to spit in your face I'm just here to prove my place I'm not here, to prove I'm above you In his life there's no first place All that's left to say Is fuck you Have you forgotten all they taught us? You've lost your way Have you forgotten all they taught us? It'll never be the fucking same Have you forgotten all they taught us? You have no god damn right, to bare their name

Years 03:35
You're supposed to be the one who drowns my demons away But what can I do, when you're the one creating them? You're such a prominent thing How do I escape it I'm sick of your mark I'm sick of your presence I'm sick of the things, that stuck in my mind I need you gone, I need you out of my life Oh I ran but I couldn't hide I couldn't hide So I'll conquer my demons, but not on my own I just want you to know, I'm better off this way I'm better off this way I don't care how many Years pass I don't care how many phone calls you have left I don't care how sorry you are There is a toll for everything you did, and as it just ticked over I finally get to breathe I didn't write this song, waiting for you to apologize I just want you to know, I don't want the memories You're supposed to be the one who drowns my demons away But what can I do, when you're the one creating them? You're such a prominent thing How do I escape it I don't care how many Years pass I don't care how many phone calls you have left I don't care how sorry you are I don't care how many Years pass I don't care how many phone calls you have left I don't care how sorry you are There is a toll for everything you did, and as it just ticked over I finally get to breathe

What about Columbine? I know the innocence that died What about Colorado, will the dark night rise? It starts with one act of neglect And another setback what do you expect A monster is born from disappointment A killer is born from abuse He's already got a gun, you just gave him a motive You'll act like you didn't see this coming, you'll all act surprised You seek freedom at any price, you said you'd do something you said you'd help But 5 months later, what are we doing with our lives? What about Columbine? I know the innocence that died What about Colorado, will the dark night rise? You sacrifice the people You sacrifice the kids The future of this world, for a stupid constitution You put the blood of our sins, on the hands of Dead Presidents The death of the innocence will rest on them Are they gonna clean up the mess? Yeah, they're gonna clean up the mess Tell me what it means, to be American It starts with one act of neglect And another setback what do you expect A monster is born from disappointment A killer is born from abuse One bullet, through the heads of our children Woah, what a wonderful lesson So what if, what if we rethink this?
