Lyrics

Skynet

If you think like a whore then you're a fucking whore
Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery
Why would you ever want to be like me
We are all someone else's terrible idea

If you catch the evil twin then why would you keep it alive
If you feel the fucking daggers then why not just step aside
You are all bastard children and you've taken it all the wrong way
Keep fooling yourself with your unappreciation

Look into my eyes and know that I can see right through you
I'll erase you from the thoughts and tongues of everyone you know
Even if you apologized to me right now it would mean nothing
Cry to me and beg for mercy all you want, you're fucking dead
You're fucking dead
Dead

I don't care when or why you cry
I just want to be there when you die
I'll be collecting soon
I'll be coming for my payment soon

Look into my eyes and know that I can see right through you
I'll erase you from the thoughts and tongues of everyone you know
Even if you apologized to me right now it would mean nothing
Cry to me and beg for mercy all you want, you're fucking dead
You're fucking dead

You're nothing but a fucking pig
And you owe me your life
Vanflip times a thousand
Don't believe the hype
No care ever
No care ever
No care ever
No care ever
