lyrics

I don’t wanna take it back in time is all that you took from me
And that wasn’t what I needed
I don’t wanna go back to that

And I know if you could choose I’d be back
there instantly
Craving for
When you kiss and when you hold me
I don’t wanna put up with that

I’ll be working tirelessly on being
Well you don’t do anything

You’ll be slumped there dreaming of
The times that you were better

Bye now
Fuck the
Animosity - i think its
Time now - fo-or
This to cease

And by now
I thought I’d be with something new
just try out to be better

I don’t wanna take it back in time is all that you took from me
And that wasn’t what I needed
I don’t wanna go back to that

If I could I would it’s just that you’re the one who keeps me
From being
Been the guy I wanted to be
Now I’m sick and tired of this life

I don’t wanna take it back in time

Bye now
Fuck the
Animosity i think its
Time now for
This to cease

And by now
I thought I’d be with something new
just try out to be better

Ill be with someone
You’ll be overcome
Flying through the sun
Ill chase it
Just hope that you know
Ill be better
