lyrics

I'm not a martyr, I won't give up my life for
godly nonhumans, for an idea, made up or not.
it's not an insult, it's just my ideas,
I am not godly, holy, human being.
I'm just a human being, I've made my mistakes
and I've gone through my fair share of pained heartbreaks,
but don't forgive me because it's unforgivable,
I don't deserve it anyway.

(chorus) so feel the pain and hold my veins down, it's just a toll for being alive.
I've felt the numbness for the weeks now, it's just a perk having survived.

in the past I was forgiving, but now I'm done giving up. I've felt all the pain you feel but now I've had enough.

(chorus)

it's between you and karma and so far karma's not the bitch.
