lyrics

I threw away everything
In a moment of disbelief
And I set fire to the streets
Now there’s nothing left of me

So I’ll bottle it in
Just to contradict
Then I’ll self-destruct
I’m a hypocrite
Repulsed by myself
Now just an image of him
Best keep your distance, lover
I’m toxic

So i’ll drown myself just to wash it away
Cleanse my skin, feel it fade
I am nothing, I am broken
I am all alone
Just a coward among kings
Who sits upon his hollow throne

I miss every salty kiss
I miss the way that we wasted away most nights
I miss your love
I miss your hazel eyes
I miss your touch
I miss your crooked smile

I know that you were the best of me
I know that I made a mess of things

And now i’m drowning in the shorebreak of Victoria Beach
In every face,
Of every wave
Those hazel eyes are all i see

(and they brand me the arsonist
and it was all for nothing...)

For the first time I am the villain
I’ve never known this side of pain
I’ve spent my life digging through the rubble, piecing back the fragments
But now they cast their stones at me

Cast your stones
I am deserving
Cast your stones
At me
