Backstabber: When the lights go off and the pain sets in I feel my body's giving in (to you again) And when my throat clogs up then the curtain comes down And there's no chance of getting out (of this hole I'm in) I wanna break away No longer here to stay I wanna rip the bandage off Just wanna come to a stop Let me take care of myself Just back off / go to hell When I'm all found out I put my mask back on To cover up everything that's going wrong (with me now) And when I hit rock bottom I refuse to get back up With this fistful of shame in my gut (weighing me down) I wanna break away No longer here to stay I wanna rip the bandage off Just wanna come to a stop Let me take care of myself Just back off / go to hell But when it's all said and done I'd do it all again Plunging my knife into the back of my friend (who did the same) Now everyone goes wrong every once in a while Better move on and give the world a smile (twisted little game) I wanna break away No longer here to stay I wanna rip the bandage off Just wanna come to a stop And now go, take care of yourself Better back off / I'm going to hell (with the rest of you too) I think it's sorrta obvious I was going for the whole 'backstabbing and cheating' kind of thing here. You know what it's like to cheat on someone and they find out?...it's aweful isn't it?...This is basically about: I messed up so let me take care of myself (I think the fact I hurt you is enough punishment). I feel bad enough already...and I'm mad at you 'cause I feel this way (eventhough it's really my fault). Also...it gets worse when friends try to tell you what to do and how to do it right....and then it turns out they weren't really on your side anyway So in the ups and downs...it's best to move on past the pain and sport a smile every once in a while...face it...this crap happens all the time no use in letting it take over...'cause that just lead to starting it all over again... (reaaaaally hoping someone likes it...and hoping someone gets the 'artist comment' )
