Hate the Light

[Verse 1] Glad you asked how the fuck I’m doing today When the plan was to burn every bridge and walk away Glad you actually listened to the sound When every last one of them watched me hit the ground [Verse 2] Forty-eight years of holding up the wall Not one of those cunts caught me when I started to fall Now the weight is down and the silence is clean Nobody’s coming, and nobody ever been [Chorus] People ain’t no good, and they never were That’s what “friends” are for, ain’t that the word A little bit of malice, a whole lot of spite I’m just glad you’re here to watch me hate the light (People ain’t no good) (People ain’t no good) [Verse 3] Dragging through the mud with a rusty iron chain Every single memory just another slow drip of pain Let the river rise up till it swallows the floor I don’t give a fuck who’s knocking at the door [Verse 4] Drilling right down to the marrow and bone Swear to God I was better off entirely alone One clean shot through the heart of the game Nobody wins, but we all share the blame [Chorus] People ain’t no good, and they never were That’s what “friends” are for, ain’t that the word A little bit of malice, a whole lot of spite I’m just glad you’re here to watch me hate the light (People ain’t no good) (People ain’t no good) [Bridge] Let it sink Let it rot All the things that they swore they forgot Every promise was an anchor in the chest Now the silence is the only place left to rest [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] People ain’t no good, and they never were That’s what “friends” are for, ain’t that the word A little bit of malice, a whole lot of spite I’m just glad you’re here to watch me hate the light (People ain’t no good) (People ain’t no good) [Outro] Watch me hate the light Hole in one Right through the chest Leave it all behind Nowhere left to go Fade to heavy bass feedback
