Fade to me at seventeen
My tongue was sharp but the rest of me was green
Finally confident enough
The rug was pulled and the fall was double rough
Cut six years to twenty three
A waste of time at my universities
Never considering anyone
A one-track mind on a path to get things done
I’ve been soaking up this Nightmare Fuel
All these things I do
And my secrets stalk in slow pursuit
Give me Nightmare Fuel
Montage; ten years ground to dust
I don’t believe you can simply paint the rust
Mission: change all of your traits
It might be easier if you’ve shed all of your mates
You’ve been dreaming things for me to do
Just more Nightmare Fuel
When you’re leaving; my brain plays self-review
Just more Nightmare Fuel
You’ve been feeding me this Nightmare Fuel
Give me Nightmare Fuel
Fuel
Fuel

Regret Everything pt.2

With every word I say
Pinballing around my brain
As you walk away
And so the words remain
With my memories
Scattered round like fallen leaves
Though the words remain
Context is changed
Don’t always have to win
You can’t regret everything

I Did It Wrong

Where I come from
I won’t be going there again
Where I come from
I won’t be going there again
Going there again
Going there again
Going there again
I won’t be going there
Going there again
When people change
They won’t be changing just for you
When people change
They might just change your point of view
Going there again
Going there again
Going there again
I won’t be going there
Going there again
Where I come from
I did it wrong
I ran away
But could not stay
Where I come from
I did it wrong
I ran away
But could not stay
