larry's revenge/final epilogue - aden neuwirth lyrics
[intro]
hey everyone, larry here
seems kinda hard to keep doing the best i can
yet my image seems to get worse everyday
like, you try and save people and never get cold feet
and what’s this about all sacrifice?
can i ever have something for me?
you see me on*screen and consider me a hero but once you meet me
oh i’m preaching to the choir
[verse 1]
berate me, forsake me and don’t hesitate to
accusе me, abuse me, spit mе out after chewing
i, can’t begin to tell you how i can’t begin to tell you
my words they reek of failure, confess to you like a drunken sailor
now this is my bad, i know what i did
tried to satiate my appetite but ended up eating sh*t
and all the bloodl*st i spilled made such a fuss that
the gust of wind got me busted with bl**dy fangs red*handed l*sting i
[verse 2]
rather you not know, rather you go than know
rather you*
(now what’s this self*righteous rant that i owe ya?)
trying to hide it, trying to cloak it
me vs. the world i f*cking know it
playing this game behind the scenes
while i’m ripping at the seams, so
it’s not so simple like it’s a matter of fact
i can’t be happy and keep it all intact, yet still
i like to keep all the odds stacked against me
is it such a surprise that the world detests me?
[refrain]
caught in this contradiction
can’t avoid all this affliction
but i’m trying to keep it together
gotta force myself to do better
as i try and solve this maze
to try and understand my brain
i want to climb higher but
i’m falling i’m falling i’m falling
while everyone around me has life figured out
it can’t be so simple for larryboy, now can it?
driven insane by society’s chains
yet i’m the one who has to take the blame
[interlude]
now, you don’t get it, i know i’m sitting here on this soapbox, laying everything out for you
but if i can’t understand, how can you understand it?
all i’m doing is extrapolating this terrible feeling that i can’t understand
pretending that the more words i use, the closer i can get to solving it
but really, all i’m doing is making a wall dividing myself from the real answer
so if i can’t understand it, what’s the point in telling you?
and if all i can say is that i have this terrible feeling, what’s the point in you knowing?
[verse 3]
stuck looking up, or i’m stuck looking down
can’t look you in the eye right now
caught in this labyrinth of prose that i created
built on lies and an act that need sedation
dotting my eyes around
can’t focus ‘cause i’m moving at the speed of sound
my senses, they sense, only work with a pretext
biases, cloud my sense of direction
is it so hard to work in the middle?
playing love like a fiddle, but i’m too fiddly, diddly
the trills and the ornaments, sound too slippery
but the notes themselves, are so puny
this melody lacks, sting like clima takt
need a log pose to see where i’m going
but in this grand line, full of grand lines
i can only be found within fine lines
[refrain]
trying to get the world to change me
should i leave up to fate?
destiny has a chance to make my life a living h*ll
but i can’t act on my own
the path to the throne, seems so
long and winding, a myriad of up and downs
to get to where i wanna be
every time i try and reach out my hand
a slap on the wrist, a sure miss
this journey i face alone
i’m just an atheist trying to take this leap of faith
but i’m such a disgrace, so to save face
turn my cheek the other way so i don’t break, i
[wall verse]
trying to get into the right mind
but who in their right mind, wants to peek in a head like mine?
like a virus, my thoughts spread, infecting like minds
though unlike minds, my statements explode like land mines, i
need to react, to counterattack, but
a slap acts so fast, i can’t react
sticking to ideals i can’t feel, reject things that are too real
kept in chains by the words i spew
sea of murky waters i’m swimming through
this labyrinth of prose has me guessing
walls of vitriol i can’t break through
wanna be a hero that can teach people a lesson
but these walls, yeah these obstacles i’ve created
always make me lose
[wall chorus]
i gotta let go, i gotta let you know
i have to break these walls down for sure
while it was my shield, it was my vice
suffocating in my own lies
i thought i had found myself
but i was just blind
[living like larry verse]
yeah i know, i’ve made some mistakes
they still haunt me
like an apparition standing before me
i’m at a loss, please
i’m just begging for forgiveness
is that too much to ask?
one bad decision can make one of these days one of my last
yeah i deserve this i let my eyes do all the thinking
my brain told me it was nonsensical but i wasn’t listening
so i hopped the fence, i crossed the line, just one foot in the door
not a sense of doing wrong, i didn’t know what i was in for
when i came to, this lame ruse, was at the end of its fuse
stuck begging, in the hopes that someone would embrace me
i thought i was a failure, thought i needed saving
but n0body would come to help this contradictory mess of hatred
i’m a, puzzle with no solution, a maze with no exit
trying to mold myself into the mold the world tries to impose against me
but how can i condense this mess of a person into a box?
how can a statue try and encapsulate this failed work of art?
[bridge]
it’ll be, easier to let go
easier for you to not know
easier to let the floor fall so i can blame the world
easier to make excuses
easier to hide the bruises
rather than try and heal the cuts that were etched onto my skin
yeah i’m incomprehensible
a labyrinth of prose
kept in chains by the words that bind me
trying to be clever so you don’t find me
cuz i don’t want to be understood
though people may want to listen
using my tongue and cheek
give you tongue and cheek
it’s the run*around
that’s some tongue and cheek
my emotions have this coat of fear
scared of the watching eyes
contextualize with a pretext
but you can’t read between the lines
so you look every which way
i can’t seem to make you focus
as time will pass, fate carries me
i’m powerless yet in motion
i have to stop playing in this fantasy
i have to face the world with all of me
[finale]
i’m less than a hero, more a vigilante
giving my ante, for being a hero, anti..
..rationale, promoting irrational words
lacking honesty, because honestly, the truth always hurts
i can’t find solace in drugs or gambling
unless i can gamble reality for fantasy
cause at least if i’m sober i can tell when i’m getting older
but i’m folding, getting flushed, with no flush, i’m just getting colder
yuh, yuh, yuh, yuh
i’m just getting colder
if i can cause myself, to make a cause to
eradicate my fears with predicate and clause
abandon pretexts, maybe i can cause
someone to understand me, flaws and all, then
maybe i can find some happiness
or maybe that thought’s just ignorant bliss
