How did everything start
you were my salvation
How did we grow apart
Was it Mom?
How she died?

Or should I say murdered
That's right, I know your secret
She killed herself
Bullshit,
I saw you give her the pills
Cyanide suicide, yeah right

It began with a fist
a sharp flick of the wrist
It began with a drink
Another and more
Till you puke on the floor.
It began with a cry
Out in the middle of the night
It began when no one came
No one to ease my anguish and pain
It begins, tonight

Why am I this walking cliché
of teenage angst and dismay
Why did you make me this way?

I hate you
I hate me
I hate this
I hate that mom's not here
I hate that I'm this way

I'm alienated
I can't get too close to people
They'll find out
And that can't happen.

It began with a fist
a sharp flick of the wrist
It began with a drink
another and more
Till you puke on the floor.
It began with a cry
Out in the middle of the night
It began when no one came
No one to ease my anguish and pain
It begins, tonight
It began with a fist
a sharp flick of the wrist
It began with a drink
Another and more
Till you puke on the floor.
It began with a cry
Out in the middle of the night
It began when no one came
No one to ease my anguish and pain
It begins, tonight

It ends tonight.
