lyrics

No one ever said that life was fair
And I'm not saying that it should be
So knowing that you are what you want to be and I'm not
Comes as no surprise
But dont expect me to be happy for you
And dont smile at me and tell me things will work out for me too
I dont want your pity
I hate your pity

Taste your vanity and its sweet bitterness
As you hide behind your veil of my stolen hopes and lost dreams
You took them all
I watched you steal my thoughts and had to see you smile

As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved and fantasize for tragedy

Swallow your pride

Beg me to make this easier
And listen to my hopeless cries

Suffer alone in emptiness
I lust to see you swallowed by the mess that you left in your wake
Disgust lies deep within your empty gaze

Beg me to make this easier
And listen as my hopeless cries
Send stares into your meaningless eyes

My envy can't describe how I loathe you for having all the stars
Leaving my eyes to marvel the sky knowing it should be mine
Yet its you I see wasting the dream that only I deserve
I'll tear off your face to see your smile

As you build your dreams on my shattered hopes
I'll look back on a day once loved
And fantasize for tragedy

Beg me to make this easier
And listen as my hopeless cries
Send stares into your meaningless eyes
