In the Back Room

[Intro]
Stop the time, this can’t be quite alright
The same old hell tonight with nowhere you can try
To run and hide, and it seems I can’t find where it lies
So do you know what’s deep inside?

[Verse 1]
Come to think of everything, that meeting was a vague threat
It’s almost like a shot at night of liquor, yet again
So my head spun then, spun then, spun then, spun then
Spun then until our pair of eyes met

[Pre-Chorus]
To feel that it’s real, that flash of all this weight
I sign my whole life, my heart, and soul away
I found no end to this nightmare in my head
And I rose from the bed, but as a big insect, haa?

[Chorus]
Junk-stained in every way, this voice I shout aloud
Shutting out intruders’ sounds and running all about
Don’t need, won’t ever heed advice you toss around
I’m coming now to hunt you down, you better watch your mouth
Each day, with vicious mates, I’m feeling their spite
Deep inside, I’m so despised, I’m breaking from their minds
That’s fair, I never cared for love of that kind
So if they’d like, I’ll take a dive, I’m falling till I can’t rise

[Post-Chorus]
I will proceed by chasing after your lead
And trailing closely
I will break free from every curse I see
That you have placed on me

[Verse 2]
“Nevermind, that business isn’t mine”
But what’s the use of pride that’s meaningless and finds
A worthless side, though it seems that it’s blind this time
It’s well-aware, it’s all a lie

[Pre-Chorus]
Worship and courtship, I wanna take a break
I’d be my best me without them in the way
These tears I cried can’t be counted, so I sigh
And the music is live without a hope for life, but every

[Chorus]
Pride should be thrown aside because they have no use
This I knew, but still I choose to keep them here in view
I’ve loved this bitter cup of sour, cold juice
Because I do, I will consume that whole entire brew
Those who would push our youthful follies into blame
Those who’d claim they had no faith are only put to shame
At birth, I came to Earth and ever since that day
I ground away my only blade and words I came to say

[Bridge]
Come to think of everything, that meeting was a vague threat
All my life, I’ve always tried to cover every shame left
Now it seems I’ve won a piece of something that I can’t get
Sleepless nights and dearly prized regrets I can’t replace yet
Still, then again, then again, then again
Then again, then again, well, I’m still singing here and then, haa!

[Chorus]
Junk-stained in every way, this voice I shout aloud
Shutting out intruders’ sounds and running all about
Don’t need, won’t ever heed advice you toss around
I’m coming now to hunt you down, you better watch your mouth
Each day, with vicious mates, I’m feeling their spite
Deep inside, I’m so despised, I’m breaking from their minds
That’s fair, I never cared for love of that kind
So if they’d like, I’ll take a dive, I’m falling till I can’t rise

[Post-Chorus]
I will proceed by chasing after your lead
And trailing closely
I will break free from every curse I see
That you have placed on me

[Outro]
Stop the time, it’s just been looping twice
The backroom here tonight, there’s nowhere you can hide
From praise and pride, and it seems I can’t find my own life
So do you know where freedom lies?
