lyrics

How many days did I screw it up.
Inflicting pain on the ones I love.
I hate the way that I burden them.
Sick and tired of the prodigal son.

I bought a pistol and I want to put it to my tongue.
Squeeze the index and the rest us done.
Stained the ceiling with the spread of guts.
I'm sick and tired of the prodigal son.

I'm a punk.
My insides are forever
bundled up.
Butterfly wings
made of switch blades.
Cut cut cut!

Plunge it into my chest!
Cutting open.
I can't breathe.
I can't...


I'll send my prayers away.
To the end of the universe.
The serpents fornicate.
To birth an unholy force.
Let's see, let's see.
Let's see what you can do.
They say they say.
They say he listens to you!
Fuck!
The blade
trembled in
my hands.
I looked down at my chest
The deed was done.
The blood poured out my flesh
But through further examination.
It just
grazed the top
of my skin.
She walked to the room
her screaming voice hoarse,
what have you done.

Why is there blood?
She calls 911.
I sprint out the door.
The next morning
she waits for me.
She says my things are packed
and I must leave.
She says my things are packed never come back never come back.
I'll send my prayers away.
To the end of the universe.
The serpents fornicate.
To birth an unholy force.
Let's see let's see.
Let's see what you can do.
They say they say.
They say he listens to you.


How many times can I fuck it up.
I just want the pain
to numb.
So much disappointment
in her.
Prodigal son.
Enough is enough.
