nurse your revenge to keep your wounds fresh
bathed in violets and violent regrets
i, cursed, concede i have nothing left
i gave you a dream which you did neglect
your praise was something i use to collect
you'll be overwhelming even in death
your bravery knows the end yet resists
i have curled all my fingers into these fists
we don't need to know why sorrow exists
but i believe i was betrayed with a kiss
your mother don't talk much, she still insists
come home little boy, cause it's you that i've missed
as much as i want it, you will not stay
move away move away from the garden state
all that i want is you to stay
move away move away from the garden state
i don't die just to die but make you believe
and if i don't try then i won't be at peace
oh if i don't try i won't be released
oh if i don't try i won't be released
oh if i don't try i won't be released
oh if i don't try i won't be released....
