Forgotten

Fantasized about a life
Simplified, a paradise
Nothing good came easy
Every love would leave me
No shame; 'cause I played this game
And it gave me everything
Lost faith 'cause I saved myself
And I don't need anything

So for one last time

This is for my friends
Who put needles in their veins
Who society erased
Hope their children all escape
This is to the men
Who wished death upon my name
Tried to push me to my grave
Swore I'd never fucking cave

Sacrifice, sleepless nights
Wasting time, a wicked vice
Time had left me heartless
It didn't leave me scar-less
No shame; 'cause I played this game
And it gave me everything
Lost faith 'cause I saved myself
And I don't need anything

Until my heart stops
Until my heart stops beating

This is for my friends
Who put needles in their veins
Who society erased
Hope their children all escape
This is to the men
Who wished death upon my name
Tried to push me to my grave
Swore I'd never fucking cave

I have spent my life chasing things
That had only brought me pain
In the end, when I'm dead
Hope it was for something
Hope it was all for something
Hope it was for something

This is for the ones
Who put poison in their veins
Who society degrades
Hope their children can escape
This is to the men
Who wished death upon my name
Tried to push me to my grave
Swore I'd never fucking cave
