Lyrics

It began with a simple question of integrity
Principles and life lessons that were taught to me
Mommy spoon-fed insults and bloody lips ensued
Daddy stood there watching, he didn’t have a clue

Then you came into my life promising to ease this strife
With pen and paper we connected, you were Xavier
The one who understands the intricacies of all these plans
And told me that if I stay true to myself I could be…saved

Ask forgiveness for all the sins that were recognized
I’ll try to stay calm
You were the only outlet for bottled aggression
I’ll try to live one more day

All the kids would point and laugh and say that my only friend
Was someone I had never met and that I pretend
To be like all of them even though I’m called a freak
I hate the way this pressure makes me feel so damn weak
The brink is looking closer and closer everyday
Pain and fear and self pity was the only way

Then you came into my life promising to ease this strife
With pen and paper we connected, you were Xavier
The one who understands the intricacies of all these plans
And told me that if I stay true to myself I could be
All that I tried to be, all that I want to be, why can’t I be saved?

Ask forgiveness for all the sins that were recognized
I’ll try to stay calm for you
But the car crash it took away everything that I was, it’s cold and dark in this coma…

It’s been three long weeks (x2)

You told me that you would be there for all time, no letters written to me in this catatonic state
Finally you came back and said that you were here, I looked at my reflection and this is what it said…

I am your life, I am Xavier, I am your death, I am Xavier
I am your pain, I am Xavier, I’ll kill your family, I am you

It’s time to move the fuck aside and let the truth take hold of you
Everything that you could never be is everything that I will make you see
I can’t take this life you lived anymore, it’s time to make them pay
You squandered every resource you had to make the world seem not so bad
Now it’s time for me to take control and I’ve got some shit to say
I’m coming, I’m coming, I’m coming to take what’s rightfully mine, I’m coming, I’m coming, I’m coming to make things right

I can’t believe the shit you’ve done and all the justice you’ve outrun
This death of flesh is what I do, it’s just a rush that you’ll get used to
You knew, you never knew this revenge

This…is…what…it’s…like…
