I'm not coming back
I'm not gonna react
I'm not doing shit for you
I'm not sitting around
While you're tearing it down around us
I'm not living a lie
While you swim in denial
Cause your already dead and gone
You'll leave me out on the curb
Just like everyone
Else before you
Welcome to my world
Where everyone I ever need
Always ends up leaving me alone
Another lesson burned
And I'm drowning in the ashes
Kicking
Screaming
Welcome to my world
I don't care what you think
I'm not seeing a shrink
I'm not doing this again
I'm not another
Student or a mother
To take your shit out on
So lets see what you got
And lets see what you're not
And whatever else you pretend
You've defended my intentions
Long enough
So here I am again
In the middle of the end
The choice I wish Id made
I always make too late.
I'm not gonna react
I'm not doing shit for you
I'm not sitting around
While you're tearing it down around us
I'm not living a lie
While you swim in denial
Cause your already dead and gone
You'll leave me out on the curb
Just like everyone
Else before you
Welcome to my world
Where everyone I ever need
Always ends up leaving me alone
Another lesson burned
And I'm drowning in the ashes
Kicking
Screaming
Welcome to my world
I don't care what you think
I'm not seeing a shrink
I'm not doing this again
I'm not another
Student or a mother
To take your shit out on
So lets see what you got
And lets see what you're not
And whatever else you pretend
You've defended my intentions
Long enough
So here I am again
In the middle of the end
The choice I wish Id made
I always make too late.

the chorus basically says that it always happens to him.
good song. did i miss anything???
And Im drowning in the ashes
Kicking
Screaming
Welcome to my world
I think we all have times in our lives where we feel like we're drowning in the ashes of something we lost.
So here I am again
In the middle of the end
The choice I wish Id made
I always make too late.
Another lesson burned
And Im drowning in the ashes
everyone can relate to those lines at some point in their life
and epiphone369 hit it on the head
it was said on an interview that this song is about people leaving you in general. not because they want to hurt your or anything like that, but the choices they made. That resulting in both you taking different paths, and maybe there path doesn't involve you.
Where everyone I ever need
Always ends up leaving me alone
Another lesson burned
And Im drowning in the ashes
Kicking
Screaming
Welcome to my world
^That says pretty much all about the song, it's about for whatever they reason, people he cares for and needs leaves him. Whether it's death, they went seperate ways, drifted apart, changed, ect.
My favorite part of the song is the first few lines, I love how he says "I;m not coming back I'm not going to react I'm not doing SHIT FOR YOU. "
And My favorite lines are
"You'll leave me out on the curb
Just like everyone
Else before you"
"While you swim in denial"
"And lets see what you're not
And whatever else you pretend"
