about

Initially a three part homage to an unsavory break up, which became remoulded and crafted into an epic rant

lyrics

I’ve got a heavy load
People round me say I can’t just explode
But I’d rather not bend over and suffer your demands
And that’s why I won’t shake your hand

The force between us could pen a thousand tales
Draw tears from any lover
You burned your essence right through me
Then vanished from the smoke
You left me
Like a senseless ghost
To wait in pain for hope

I will not allow this anymore
I am not someone you can ignore
You can try manoevre round me
I’ll just make you face me in the firing line

No I won’t bite my tongue
You’re own actions, they got you hung
I am a reflection of your own self dejection
So don’t wash me down with your lies

The force between us could pen a thousand tales
Draw tears from any lover
You burned your essence right through me
Then vanished from the smoke
You left me
Like a senseless ghost
To wait in pain for hope

I will not allow this anymore
I am not someone you can ignore
You can try manoevre round me
I’ll just make you face me in the firing line

I will not allow this anymore
I am not someone you can ignore
You can try manoevre round me
I’ll just make you face me in the firing line

Fears began to surface
Pain had served its purpose
Miscommunication
God damn
Stole all our affection
We were driven out into a wild direction
Pulled and dragged away from all our loves protection

Oh oh

I will not allow this anymore
I am not someone you can ignore
You can try manoevre round me
I’ll just make you face me in the firing line
