Lyrics Convictions – We Are Violence

You brought out the worst in me: deep-rooted hatred
You’ve hung rapture from the highest tree
This is betrayal to the highest degree
We are violence

I’m in a vulnerable state of mind
I can’t believe that I was so blind
And now I’m constantly reminded
Of how you stabbed me from behind
I swear one day
I’ll put this all I’ll put this all behind me
One day, I will learn to let this go

Say what you wanna say
Say what you mean to me
I can’t believe a word that comes my way
You can’t just take what you want from me

We are, we are, we are violence
We are, we are, we are violence

It’s unbelievable how I tried
I can’t believe all the times you lied
Now I’m reaching for an answer
But you couldn’t kill your pride
Your lack of apathy tears me
From friend to foe
I never thought you’d stoop this low
Where’d your devotion go?

Say what you wanna say
Say what you mean to me
I can’t believe a word that comes my way

You can bury the truth
You can live with your lies
With all the secrets you keep
I don’t know how you can sleep
But at the of my days
I’ll take nothing to the grave

I’ll take nothing to the grave
My conscious is clear
I’ll leave a final message here
I’ll put the bitterness to rest
No longer a slave, I’ll take nothing to the grave

Say what you wanna say
Say what you mean to me
I can’t believe a word that comes my way
You can’t just take what you want from me
You can’t just take what you want from me
Broken trust
You threw away all honesty
It’s time for you to come clean
You can’t just take what you want from me
