Rejected Lyrics by Tarby

E.S.C.A.P.E.

0

Smile wide for all the ones who
Stuck around to watch you fall
Hold your breath, time to dive in
Solve your problems once and for all

In a flash you hit the water
Try to gasp, but there's no air left to find
Keep it in, just like your anguish
And hope to god you'll find it time

So take the hit and smile away
Know it's all better than it was yesterday
And when they ask for you to stay
So bite the bullet, take it all, and even if it tastes infected
Smile for the ones who want you, just so you don't get rejected

On a leash, like an animal you're coming to 'em
For a treat that you know you'll never get
Try to speak, but the muzzle in your mouth prevents you
So you weep, brimming over with regret

Sold your soul for a taste of the monotony that
Everyone you know holds in high regard
Now abuse is the one thing that you know for certain
Hear the whip, feel the sting, bite the bars now!

Wipe your tears, you can't let them see you acting this way
Like a baby, like a bitch, and like a kid
Poker face, join the race, but don't you plan on winning
Not like they care about anything you did

Take your place at the starting line, but don't get ready
There's no point when you know you'll never win
Take a breath, nothing left but violence and oppression
Governed by the united states of sin

So take the hit and smile away
Know it's all better than it was yesterday
And when they ask for you to stay
Just bite the bullet, take it all, and even if it tastes infected
Smile for the ones who want you, just so you don't get rejected

So take the hit and smile away
Know it's all better than it was yesterday
And when they ask for you to stay
Just bite the bullet, take it all, and even if it tastes infected
Smile for the ones who want you, just so you don't get rejected

And take the hit and smile away (So take the hit and smile away)
Know it's all better than it was yesterday (It's all better than)
And when they ask for you to stay
Just bite the bullet, take it all, and even if it tastes infected
Smile for the ones who want you, just so you don't get rejected
