about

Live loudly.

lyrics

I'm drifting farther from this wave that lies in front of me
Empty bottles that were once filled with my self esteem
Guess it looks like I'm the death of the party again

My heart beats louder than this darkness hanging over me
Flick the match at all those memories drenched in gasoline
How do I fall asleep when the world's a foot step away?

The smoke is slowly filling up my airway
I left our photos on the floor
I'll start a riot if I never let you know

Chorus:
I don't care what everybody's throwing away
Done drowning in a pool of my own misery
'Cause I've got a death-wish for living
Stand aside 'cause I'm about to detonate

The static on your tongue is driving me into the ground
Now I don't even hear it

The smoke is slowly filling up my airway
I left our photos on the floor
I'll start a riot if I never let you know

(Chorus)
