Bother

• Stone Sour

Wish I was too dead to cry?

My self-affliction fades

Stones to throw at my Creator

Masochists to which I cater

You don’t need to bother

I don’t need to be

I’ll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on

I won’t let go till it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care?

If indeed, I cared at all

Never had a voice to protest

So you fed me shit to digest

I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season

For this I gave up trying, one good turn deserves my dying

Wish I’d died instead of lived?

A zombie hides my face

Shell, forgotten with its memories

Diaries left with cryptic entries

And you don’t need to bother

I don’t need to be (I don’t need to be)

I’ll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on

I won’t let go till it bleeds

You don’t need to bother

I don’t need to be, yeah (I don’t need to be)

I’ll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on (once I hold on)

I’ll never live down my deceit
