Violets Are Blue

[Tim McIlrath]
Somehow I knew that this would end
And then I finally found my way back home
And this is all one master plan
To keep us spinning down this endless well

I'm drowning in my own regrets
Trying so hard to take what's my last breath
And this is all I wanted from you
So alone, and now I'll have you know

Like this dead stare...

If you can stand on your own two feet
Then you can get up off your fucking knees
Stand up and wash away the blood
That stains your soul!
You've given me reason to
Tear you apart limb from limb
Now you can't fix what's already broke

Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know

Like this dead stare... whoah...

Don't surrender
Never give up your fucking life
You lied about your pride in yourself!
I push from inside your skin
(You'll never see the sun again)
And tear you apart from within
Again!

Never, never
The sun!
Again!
I promise
It's my word
I drink this culture
I will end your life!

Know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know

Look away from this broken mirror
Look away from this broken mirror
Look away from this broken mirror
Look away from this broken mirror
Now you
Look away from this broken mirror
Fuck you
Look away from this broken mirror
Look away from this broken, broken mirror

(Look away from this broken mirror...)
Now, the time has come
To slow the beating of your heart
Now, the time has come
To slow the beating of your heart
Now, the time has come
To slow the beating of your heart

Bite down!
Bite down!

Now, the time has come
To slow the beating of your heart
Now, the time has come
To slow the beating of your heart

Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
Know, I'll have you know
