[VERSE 1]
The loudest one in the room
Now screaming alone at the burning sensational station
I feel my mind trickling
Down the route of my beloved old nation
Thrown out of my home
By people who told me they loved me
I haven't seen them in a long time
But I guess that they all leave eventually
[PRE-Chorus]
The ghost of my idol right after his downfall
Is lingering, but he guides me
Trinkets of blues to replace the colour
That's draining from my eyes
[Chorus]
Stress of the lonelines is driving me crazy
Involuntary exile, It makes me feel futile
And there's nothing to take the pain from me
Backstabbed by the blade it's ironic to say
The world I once knew is bleak and changing
Left in a vast empty sandbox
I shout out but no one is around to hear me
[BRIDGE]
Abandoned me for L'manberg, so gritty
And Logsted is now where I reside
Is this the taste of defeat from my head to my feet
In due time I know revenge will be sweet
[VERSE 2]
Quickly deteriorating
I'm tired and losing all hope
What do I believe?
Is it him who deceives?
Are my friends real or fragments of a false reality
Would it pain them to visit
Or have I been stripped of all my worth
Do they pay me any mind
Have I been kicked to the curb
[VERSE 3]
If roles were reversed
I know he'd receive all of these things that make me grieve
Constant rainfall that block out sunny days
Have I ever been the villain
It hurts but probably
[PRE-Chorus]
The ghost of my idol right after his downfall
Is lingering, but he guides me
Trinkets of blues to replace the colour
That's draining from my eyes
[Chorus]
Stress of the lonelines is driving me crazy
Involuntary exile, It makes me feel futile
And there's nothing to take the pain from me
Backstabbed by the blade it's ironic to say
The world I once knew is bleak and changing
Left in a vast empty sandbox
I shout out but no one is around to hear me
[OUTRO]
Reminiscing on sunset skies
Peacefully watching on that bench
Permanent vacation writing holy books
With a treasure that points to my bestest friend
Delicate like a bendable flower
Turn away all handouts
'cause no one showed up to my party
Where do we go from here?
I reiterate that they all leave eventually
