dear self - flat back four lyrics

Loading...

dear self
i’m ghost of yet to come
when all the things you’ve said and done
return to haunt your every waking move

and convince you i was right
with the benefit of hindsight
i warn you must repent
or die a thousand deaths

i’m a slice of dante’s h*ll
this is real, i tell myself
you’ve had your second chance
it’s the final warning

i could take you with me now
i don’t have to warn you anyhow
i’ve paid for your mistakes
what i am, you will become

i enjoyed forbidden fruit
stretched my youth until it broke
the ties that bound
my time misspent
i died, my parents cried
my end has come, my task: to make you mend your ways
now you are my only hope
lost again, you’re in control
now i live again through you
listen to me now, dear self

this talk of h*ll means nought
i tell myself, i’ll live again, in a better place
laugh all you like. i know your type
please heed this haunted smile, i beg
my future is in your own hands now
paradise, now lost, awaits my own dear self
