"If we're all born to die and we all die to live. Then what's the point of living if it just contradicts?" - Ronnie Radke


[Intro : Me (Xela)]

 

Dear life, I’m sorry about the mistakes I made.
I’m not perfect. Sometimes, I wonder, is it even worth it?
Time and time again, I need something else to give me joy.
Can’t I give myself happiness? But even if I try, it’ll all be erased-

 

[Chorus : Xela and SG]

 

In the end, when we, die and lie again.
Oblivion. Is it worth it? The way you, hurt me?

 

[Verse : SG]

 

Confusion. It leaks from the sky and carries your lies, (away) it tears at the heart and bruises the mind! Do not deny what I’ve become. I’m product of your sins, and I’m crawling on your back.

 

[Bridge: Xela]

 

Don’t you know dear, I’m as bad as a heart-attack!
Heart attack.
Heart attack.
I’m as bad as
Heart attack.
Heart attack.

 

[Pre-Chorus + Chorus : Xela and SG]

 

Break through, break through--

In the end, when we, die and lie again.
Oblivion. Is it worth it? The way you, hurt me?

 

[Verse : Xela]

 

Do you know. All the things I’ve been through? To get. To. You?
Do you know?! What I’ve tried to cover you lies? To save us from despise?

Break down.

 

[Verse 3 : SG]

 

Looking back, I decided not to be like the way you act.
I’m as good as I can be and you have no way to change that.
We’ll make it big while you’re on the streets.
We’ll live in peace while you’re stuck with negativity.
It’s fun to get our revenge, especially when we can look back.
Vengeance isn’t like revenge, we’re saving ourselves.
You put us through it all, but do you really know what you’re messing with?

 

[Chorus : Xela and SG]

 

In the end, when we, die and lie again.
Oblivion. Is it worth it? The way you, hurt me?

 

[Outro : SG]

 

Oblivion!
Is it worth it?
Worth it?

Is it, worth it?
Are we, worth it?

Hello! This is quite personal. In fact, it's about a bully. I wrote this for my best friend and I, and we may or may not perform this for the talent show.

 

My stage-name is "Xela" and her's happens to be quite long, so for short I just call her "SG".

 

I hope you understand the deep meaning hidden in the words.
