Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get it over with
Let yourself split
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
I want to go insane
I want to lose my mind
To occupy my time
I want to lose control
I want to lose restraint
No longer they control
The pictures that I paint
I want to feel the highs
I can take the lows
Better than the in between
The cons outweighed by pros
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
No I don't feel ashamed
Of these thoughts inside
Don't want to be the same
Like everybody tries
Don't want to play the game
Don't want to live a lie
Don't want to kill the flame
That's burning deep inside
I want to feel the pain
I wanna feel alive
You want to feel the same
Come on and take the dive
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
Let yourself split
Get it over with
Let yourself split
