Hater Alligator

I feel worthless Am I worth it? I feel hopeless Wondering if you'll ever save me Save me Save me from my saddened heart of dismay The ocean of commotion Is where you're swimming on your own The sea of devilish devotion Is where you abide ambitiously all alone I am worthy of joyous love I am worthy of hope and faith I am honored high above I am worthy, too, of strength Yeah, I need to move on I need to really move on Before the break of dawn Go ahead and pass through The reckless water and waves of self-indulgence Hater alligator, what's new? Are you devouring the remains of future extravagance? Bring me to the fountain of vitality I want to find my way out of reality Sing me to sleep in blankets of bliss I have often dreamt of receiving happiness I feel distress In my heart of stress I feel like a mess Should I keep trying or give up? Should I stand my ground again? Maybe I need rest tonight I'll try my best with my might And take flight above it all Above it all I will stand tall like a warrior's wall, so hear my victory call I speak to you You don't listen You're a heartless stranger And a rueful man of anger I am worthy of a better friend A friend that will be by my side From start to finish, beginning to end Oh, can't stand your selfish pride Put on humility and take off arrogance Renew the remedy of relieving radiance Swim your shore Of I don't care anymore Dive in deep waters Be with the other betrayers Give me a reason To move on Give me a reason To move on Give me one more reason To follow in your footsteps Till your footsteps are gone... Till the moon turns into the sun... Sick of the excuses of your desertion Tired of your nasty denial and delusion Grow up, why don't you? Why don't you get the clue? Why are you telling me what to do? You're not my Father and you know it's true You know it's true So, don't deny it too Swim your shore To your hatred core I did adore you Until you drowned my hope If you need my help, I will say "NOPE!" Catch you later, Hater alligator... Until then, I'm moving on
