Analysis of Destruction



put ya guards up and ill let down mine..
watch everything disintegrate into space
watch em fall apart
ill just be the blame if thats what u want
unexplained reasons why
destruction is overboard
but no questions answered
stop callin me for help
stop relyin on a shoulder
ill be a heartless prick
as my heart gets colder
put ya guards up
ill come knock em down
watch your every nice thought of me
disintergrate into space
