Frank Iero And The Patience – They Wanted Darkness... lyrics

Sometimes we miss old friends
Until we remember they weren’t friends
You see, treachery in memories always takes a different spin
Until it happens again and again

And it's that time again
You’re just in time to break me down
You said you want my pain?
And I gave you pain
I’ll give you pain, until it’s gone

You wanna know my deal? The reason I can’t deal?
Why I crack under the pressure
Of always feeling guilty of never pleasing anyone
Because no one here can get over their shit?

But it’s that time again
There’s always time, to bring me down
You say you want my heart
Just to tear it apart
But that’s my favorite part of me
That’s the only part I love

You, you can’t tell me how to be myself
Just wait, I’m gonna try my best to figure it out for myself
You can't break me down again
Or change my mind on this
I’m breaking out of this, your darkness

No one’s ever felt like this before, oh no
No one’s ever been like me before
I’m sure of it, sure of it

You can’t tell me, how to be myself
Just wait, I’m gonna try my best to figure it out for myself
You can't break me down again
Or change my mind on this
I’m breaking out of this, your darkness

Would you die for me if I lived for you?
But turn your back on me
If I continue to follow my heart?
How could you?
Throw me away, just let me be
And hate me for me
(I can’t be so, perfectly, untrue for you)
Loving a lie, deny me my life
But I still love you, but why should I?
