  • Please, you have to help me
    This is not my true face
    If you could see my soul
    As I have seen my soul
    I could show it to you
    It's rotten
    It's poison
    Help me please

    Please give me a fucking excuse
    I beg for just one reason to give you regret

    Are you with me or are you on your own?
    It's time to choose your side, so choose your side
    Are you with me or are you on your own?
    It's time to choose your side, so choose your fucking side

    Could be the end of the world
    I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away
    Could be the end of the world
    I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away

    Hear me now
    Get off your knees
    Nothing changes when you pray
    I'm the closest thing to a god you'll ever know
    Get off your knees
    Open your eyes
    I'll regret never again
    And I stand above you
    And I can't feel this pain anymore
    And I can't carry on this way
    I'm hiding behind false eyes

    Could be the end of the world
    I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away
    Could be the end of the world
    I'd still be laid here on my own wasting my life away
    Over and over
    Over and over Writer/s: Ben Bruce, Danny Worsnop, James Cassells
