RIPWORLD

Lyrics

I, I, I
never wanted
to care
what your fucking side
of the story
ever was.

I have done everything I had hoped to achieve.
I got to move to a new place,
where people won't recognize me.
I even changed my voice
in the hopes that I can finally become a stranger.
I think I'm finally able to start over.
I only know one person in this new place.
We get to know each other.
I tell them things I've never even said out loud.
I confess my truth. Shit that my family doesn't even know.
They hand me a cart.
And I wanna prove that this new and improved version of me is cool,
so I... I rip hard.
Some time passes,
my vision is going in and out.
They decide that this is the moment to strike.
I stare at the ceiling, shaking.
As they do what they wanted to do this whole time.
By the time they're done,
they leave me alone in the dark
to meet some new and better friends.
And I ask...

Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.

I am a young boy,
dying in the suburbs,
locking myself in my room
convincing myself that my mom is trying to kill me.
She's screaming, begging me to open the door.
In my heart, I know that she is not her, and that I am not me.
I have used up all the good will from those unlucky enough to care,
and I've thrown it out.
If not for nothing, just to see if I can.
I am trapped in the confines of four walls.
I begin to dream.
I dream of a place where nobody knows me.
Where I could start over, and live my life as someone different.
Someone who isn't me.
And when this episode is over,
I ask...

Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.

I am in his bathroom, looking at the mirror.
I see someone.
They're almost like me.
I wipe away my tears and ask if I kept my composure too well.
I've broken his heart, as I often do.
He wanted it to be me, so did I.
But I just couldn't shake everything off.
As I walk home with all my belongings,
I notice someone following me.
The same person that's followed me my whole life.
That dying boy from the suburbs.
I try to get him off my tail, but I
just can't.
He knows me too well.
One of these days,
I'm going to work up the courage to turn around
and ask him...

Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
Do your friends know who you are?
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
Yeah, I'm all alone again.

No, I
never wanted
to care
what your fucking side
of the story
ever was.

No I, I, I
never wanted
to care
what your fucking side
of the story
ever was.
And I
know I'll never
be the same,
but I
know I'll never,
never change.

And I'm all alone again.
(Do your friends know who you are?)
Yeah I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
(Do your friends know who you are?)
Yeah I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
(Do your friends know who you are?)
Yeah I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
(Do your friends know who you are?)
Yeah I'm all alone again.
And I'm all alone again.
(Do your friends know who you are?)
Yeah I'm all alone again.
