Story Behind the Song
I lost trust in certain people for a while, and I have since found it again.But for a while, I was backstabbed, or in my terms, burned.
Lyrics
I stare at this mirror, wanting to break it,
And peelin' off the scars and scabs that I've taken,
I've lost complacent feelings in me,
'Cause I've already died and I'm still breathing,
To see myself now, as a rambling wreck,
This face of mine, you can put a bag over it,
Beat me over the head, that's what people have done,
I wonder when that one day comes,
To see me normal, and live a real life,
That sees me happy, and makes me sleep at night,
But for now, I'll be dumped in gasoline and light,
The match that makes me ignite, what a sight,
To see, what a lot of people have done to me,
Was this the life I've always dreamed?
You should see their eyes, just look at them,
As I'm a human fireball, a burn victim
(Chorus)
I'm the burn victim, now watch me burn,
Now in the 3rd degree, loneliness is about to occur,
I was there when you wanted everything,
But now I'm nothing, and not me,
I'm the burn victim, so watch me burn,
Now in the 3rd degree, loneliness is about to occur,
I was there when you wanted everything,
But now I'm nothing, and not me,
No one will ever even extinguish the flame,
That lives in my brain, that drives me insane,
I wonder why people have disrespected me for so long,
I think that they want me gone,
Even the love of my life refuses me,
Now that we're apart, eye to eye we don't see,
She continues to say that this new man's changed,
But her whole mind set is rearranged,
She became this fool, and that ain't cool,
'Cause I knew from day one, he was an a--hole,
But all she heard from me was blah, blah, blah,
Wait 'til I die in real life, (OH MY GOD!!!)
So where was she when I wanted her,
She might have to witness the rebirth,
Of the closest thing that she ever had to love,
And I'm the real flaming angel from above,
(Chorus)
I'm irreplacable, whole body and all,
You'll realize that when I'm already gone,
But for now I'll walk around with a bandage around my face,
And think that my life's a waste,
You don't want to see me after I'm burnt to a crisp,
Skin peeling, and now you want to see this,
Why do you want me now, after you put me down,
It should be nice to have me around,
I'm te best thing, and I still got lit with kerosene,
And you want me to be a human being,
When I needed people for me to lean,
They threw me in the lava and I still scream,
'Cause I was real, and you are just fake as hell,
But you all went along so well,
And now that I have lost respect for you,
I should put you through the same pain that you put me through,
(Chorus 2x and then fade)
