Lies
Monster Squad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of your face of this place of future of a waste
Can't seem to find a way off my mind
A way to cope a sign of hope I want to hang from a rope
LIES
I don't need your...
LIES
There's nothing to say, I can't fade away
To change my life to get this right tired of all these fight
I cannot speak I cant even think
Don't wanna eat I feel so bleak to your face I feel weak
LIES
I don't need your...
LIES
I don't need you
