Cathartic State

Verse 1
Did you think that you could love me, and just leave me there for dead?
Unplug me, and claim that it eased my suffering?
Like you’re so far up above that my heart was yours to shred?
It’s so sad you got it twisted in your bitch ass little head.
Take a long look in that rearview ‘cause there you’ll see me.
Dead in my tracks with asphalt in my teeth.
Pan-caked like some road-kill; hell yes we’ve got beef!
Guess you should have thought twice before you left me there to bleed.
‘Cause I’m back resurrected with that sense of urgency
to settle this vendetta with my Beretta and your screams!
You about to have a nightmare, forget those sweet dreams.
We gon’ settle this with warfare, and corpses at my feet.

Pre-chorus
Now why, is it such a rough goodbye?
I just can’t figure why
that I looked into your eyes.
Why’d I look into your eyes?

Chorus
Waiting for the memories to fade
Please make it go away
It’s just too much to take
This loneliness and rage

Aching with the pain of getting played
So now you’ve got to pay
Cathartic is the state
And it’s time you met your fate

Verse 2
Why did it have to be you change it and make it this way.
I still can't believe it, you just pushed me and my heart away.
Then again, why did you have to be the one to ruin me.
Just because of this pain you ruined me and my destiny.
For eternity, internally, messed up my mind my completely.
Your life is not gonna end sweetly nor gonna end neatly.
What is done, is what is done, look how much pain you’ve done.
Face to face, we are gonna settle this conflict with our own guns.
I'm gonna make you bleed like rain.
Since you put me through so much pain.
Letting go of my hand and making me fall through like a stormdrain.
If you think breaking hearts is fun.
Wait till I'm done shooting you with a gun.

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Bridge
Big mistake, how you left me there for dead
I think we’ll do like this instead
On your knees and bow your head
Don’t speak it’s all been said


So these final words are mine
Eulogistic and divine
I’ll remember all the times
Now it’s time for you to—die!
