You Will Pay

You will pay for these books,
you will memorise them
so when the exams arrive
we can rate your value out of ten.
About anything but your ability to remember
we will forget.
You want to be happy, well
isn't that a shame?
You've got to study for subjects
about which you don't care.
Because the exams are right around the corner
So you set your life aside
so you can someday, maybe get a job
if you happen to get lucky enough.
You will pay for these books,
you will memorise them
so when the exams arrive
we can rate your value out of ten.
About anything but your ability to remember
we will forget.
We don't want any creativity.
That's not what we taught you back in school.
You don't need to understand
how this country runs.
You just be productive.
We've already made all the right choices for you.
Don't you ever go out of your way or you'lll
find what you have become.
You will pay for these books,
you will memorise them
so when the exams arrive
we can rate your value out of ten.
About anything but your ability to remember
we will forget.

There was a time
where I was waiting,
I was waiting for love
to come to me.
Now I've found it twice,
yet I'm complaining.
Just make a choice,
what's wrong with me?
Just choose the best,
but I don't know who that is.
So I'm writing a song
just to moan.
Both polyromantic,
yet I can only have one.
For years, I've been learning
their stance on love
for it to not apply
when I needed it the most.
They have both
mistakenly hurt me,
and have promised
those times are gone.
That they have learnt,
but what about me?
After all,
this is all my fault
for clinging on
to baseless hopes.
So I'm writing a song
just to moan.
Both polyromantic,
yet I can only have one.
For years, I've been learning
their stance on love
for it to not apply
when I needed it the most.

You were the pigment of the imagination
of a lonely child who in his dreams
found someone to love.
You weren't intentional, you weren't healthy.
You weren't supposed to be around once I stepped out to the world.
You've got no use.
It's so tempting to love you,
but
You have no name to call you with,
you have no face that I can miss,
you have no mind,
you live in mine,
now end your stay.
I don't need,
I don't need to replace you.
All I need is someone to break your shrine
and clean up this mess.
You're not real enough for us to share fates,
yet I can't keep you off my mind, you're a threat, you're a mistake
I had to make, but now
you prevail as a result of my loneliness
that's been too real to forget about, since you taught me to pretend
I was okay.
It's so tempting to love you,
but
You have no name to call you with,
you have no face that I can miss,
you have no mind,
you live in mine,
now end your stay.
I don't need,
I don't need to replace you.
All I need is someone to break your shrine
and clean up this mess.

If there's something in your mind,
then you're gonna get it.
End just justifies means,
doesn't matter how flawed.
Thinking about it
I somehow missed you'd not
comprehend at all
that love means nothing
if it needs
to be forced.
You lost me by
trying to keep me with you.
You were a good chance
to grow up and use
what I'd learnt before.
I only regret to have been right
when I said
we wouldn't work.
You were keeping me close
in case you fell in love later
down the road.
Hiding the true meaning of your words.
I'd lost the count of how many
promises you broke.
Thinking about it
I somehow missed you'd not
comprehend at all
that love means nothing
if it needs
to be forced.
You apologised and such
you are forgiven.
Never wanted to lose you as a friend so
now, let's go back to what we were before.

He throws a punch and I don't move back,
I just take it like a champ,
I return it and get pushed down
to the floor but I get up.
I grab a chair and hit his head,
on the floor he leaves a stain.
Vengeance's best served on a cold plate,
but I don't have the time to wait.
What the hell were you thinking, man?
I am Tim, you don't stand a chance.
I'm the greatest man on earth,
and I am here to bring you death.
Leave alone, I've got things to do.
Gonna smash your head in too.
I'm an expert in kung fu,
I'm Tim!
They all need to hold me back,
well fuck off, this is my track,
you do not get to decide
who is gonna win this fight.
I'm a master like Jackie Chan,
chat some shit and then get banged.
Holy shit, that really hurt,
but I don't care, this is my funk.
What the hell were you thinking, man?
I am Tim, you don't stand a chance.
I'm the greatest man on earth,
and I am here to bring you death.
Leave alone, I've got things to do.
Gonna smash your head in too.
I'm an expert in kung fu,
I'm Tim!

Thank fo it's gone,
I hope that's for long.
I think my time has come
to run.
What was that?
It seemed to come from the inside.
You'll have to pay
the price on your head.
Never forget
the price on your head.
I'll be the witness
of this precious sickness.
Now that we're gone,
the purge has begun.
