I don't know the difference between love and sorrow.
My optimist opinion for the brave new world we're searching for.
But I'll stand here holding your head under water.
As you slip away.
Please remember this, I've always hated you.
I don't know the difference between lies and chivalry.
you're blood red cold, the brave new world was gone.
but I'm still standing here watching you die.
Wishing your torment would last.
As you slip away.
remember I've always hated you.
It pains me not to see you cry,
In fact I am overjoyed watching your pain.
It pains me not to see you there, begging
for your miserable life to be saved.
The fact is I feel nothing, more than I've ever felt before.
I feel no shame at all.
Love and sorrow.
Useless and absurd.
For a dead man we have long observed.
I'm still standing here holding your lifeless corpse.
In one hand.
It's time to bid our farewell.
It pains me not to see you cry,
In fact I am overjoyed watching your pain.
It pains me not to see you there, begging
for your miserable life to be saved.
The fact is I feel nothing, more than I've ever felt before.
I feel no shame at all.
