What Doesn´t Kill Me

What Doesn´t Kill Me

Kill Your Idols
(album: No Gimmicks Needed)

Some nights I´d cry myself to sleep, when teenage life was fast and cheap and suicidal thoughts ran deep, alone and in the dark... but it´s nowhere I ain´t been before, I´ve tasted high school hallway floors my face met many locker doors, I really left my mark... Feeling bitter, uninspired, I lacked necessities required, fall short of every goal aspired, be still my pounding fists... Beating at concrete frustration, your endless pressing expectations, transform into my motivation, you push and I´ll resist! And what doesn´t kill me- Fuels my burning soul! I´ll consume your hate, and establish my control! Like the gull, I´ll take what´s left behind, and your contempt; I´ll make it mine, parasitic by my own design. Just gimme all you got.. Against a wall of circumstance, I´ll sit out this pathetic dance, I won´t accept your olive branch, I´d rather let it rot.... I´m grateful for each stinging fist, each razor waiting for my wrist, you give the blade a special twist, so nice of you to care... Though I´m turning what you left, to right I still cry alone at night, but I think it´s gonna be alright, ´cause I´m still breathing air. And what doesn´t kill me - Fuels my burning Soul! I´ll consume your hate- And establish my controll!
