Lipstick Tonic
Kerbera Lyrics

We're on the top as we sink
Despite sinking and facing hardships, we are still in control of our lives and on top of our own situations.

We're on the top when we forget
We can only truly be on top of our lives when we forget our past struggles and focus on the present.

We're on the top of living when we're on top of all regrets
We can only truly live our lives to the fullest when we have overcome and conquered all of our past regrets.

This is just the beginning It is a start of the change When we realize the sacrifice we have to make
Starting the journey towards change requires us to embrace sacrifice and see it as a necessary step towards reaching our goals.

This is not what you wanted But you have brought it on yourself
While the outcome may not be what we wanted, we are ultimately responsible for our own actions that led us to this point.

Rewinding all the mistakes reminding me of yesterday
Reflecting on our past mistakes can be painful, yet necessary, in order to learn from them and move forward.

Who would care if I was gone When life goes on and on and on Without me
In the grand scheme of things, our individual existence may not matter, but we should still strive to make the most of our time while we are here.

With empty bottles behind my back And the venom in my veins A spew of words to the attack Words I'd choke on for days
The pain of past mistakes can be unbearable and cause us to resort to destructive behavior and regretful words.

Months, and years we could have spent But that's just a dream, with venom in my veins
The potential for a better future may seem like a distant dream when we are consumed by our past mistakes and their consequences.

Now when all the words are said and all the promises lie dead buried deep, among the fallen dreams they rest
When all is said and done, empty promises and shattered dreams are all that remain of what could have been.

From the grave they'll sing with me this forgotten melody not even gravity can hold me back to earth
The memories of our past and the struggles that come with them will always be a part of us, but they do not define us and cannot keep us down.

Now you see me You see my lipstick covered face I didn't put it on it ended up there by mistake Don't look at me, just look away I'm not to blame
The physical representation of our mistakes may be hard to ignore, but we should not let them define us or make us feel guilty for past actions that were not in our control.

So disengaged It felt like such a good idea yesterday
Our actions and decisions may seem like a good idea at the time, but in hindsight they can appear foolish and disconnected from reality.

Now you'll never be coming back I won't see your pretty face just pray for a heart attack Something to put me away
The pain of losing those we care about can be overwhelming, leading to thoughts of self-destruction and escape from the pain.

These few years that we have spent Only one thing to regret The fucking venom in my veins
Despite the good times and memories, the pain of past mistakes and consequences can overshadow everything else.

Now when all the words are said we let the silence scream instead After all it's just another fucked love story
Sometimes the best course of action is to let the silence speak for itself, accepting what has happened and moving on from it the best we can.

I'm not the actions that you see nor am I what I used to be Not even our history can hold me back to earth
Our past does not define us, and we are capable of growing and changing beyond what we have done in the past.
