Say Goodbye
Cast Aside Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got nothing left
But this hatred for your kind
You look down on us
As if we're not good enough
Your whole life is a fucking lie
Now its time to say goodbye
This hate won't leave my head
Until I see you fucking dead
You want me to be just like you
But I will always remain true
I will never fucking fall
Victim to your lies
I will always have
Hardcore Pride

I will never fall
Hardcore Pride

Just don't come around me
With the bottle in your hand
Try and fucking test me
And I'll make you understand
What its like to be dead
The pain is gone my head
Now I'm still the fucking same




I will always remain
Hardcore
