There's not a day that goes by where I don't regret having written this fucking song.

lyrics

We never stop to think things over
we're always quick to jump and don't care where we land
with bases loaded, two strikes, tied game, we're always quick to swing
they tied him to a tree with barbed wire
they closed their eyes and shot four times
he gave an awful laugh and coughed the bullets up
their hearts exploded and they died
There's never warning before it's over
when rain clouds come we're always staring at the ground
we run our fastest but still get wet before we reach the bus
they gave him eagle's blood he wouldn't take it
he crushed the vial inside his hand
without my best friend I can't see the point of life
if Blackwing's dead than so am I
