"R.I.P." lyrics

"R.I.P."

You were just a script I rewrote the play
Thought you wrote my end but now I guess I flipped the page
Used to be the echo now I am the scream
You were just a lesson not the final scene

R.I.P.
To the ones that didn't want me
R.I.P.
To the ones who couldn't hold me
R.I.P.
To the ones who tried to own me
R.I.P.
'Cause you cannot control me

To the ones that played pretend
Now you're nothing in the end
Raise a glass to history
Here's to all our memories
To the ones who watched me break
Now you're just a past mistake
Cut you out so surgically
To the past respectfully
R.I.P.

Get rid of your face, get rid of your name
I carved in the date then I sealed up the grave
You called it a war, I just took the call
Now I hang your crown like a trophy on my wall

Tables turned
Now my voice lives on and yours fades away
It's my return
You fed the fire now I'll watch you burn

R.I.P.
To the ones who tried to break me
R.I.P.
To the lies they used to shape me
R.I.P.
To the ones who tried to take me
R.I.P.
'Cause none of you can cage me

To the ones that played pretend
Now you're nothing in the end
Raise a glass to history
Here's to all our memories
To the ones who watched me break
Now you're just a past mistake
Cut you out so surgically
To the past respectfully
R.I.P.

R.I.P.
Your chains just couldn't hold me
R.I.P.
Now fade out from my story
R.I.P.
No chains could ever hold me
R.I.P.
'Cause you cannot control me

Digging a hole in the dirt
For every scar that you have carved in me
Bury you down in the earth
Dragging you down
Shovel you
Six feet deep
Six feet deeper

To the ones that played pretend
Now you're nothing in the end
Raise a glass to history
Here's to all our memories
To the ones who watched me break
Now you're just a past mistake
Cut you out so surgically
To the past respectfully
R.I.P.

To the ones who watched me break
Now you're just a past mistake
Cut you out so surgically
To the past
R.I.P.
