  • Oh disaster, I know I'm long overdue
    There's no answer, I know I shouldn't have listened to you
    Before I let you decide, you have to know that I lied
    I only do what I do

    Let's be honest, I watched you walk away
    You went off to find, anything else, anything less
    On your own

    Oh the Karma, I know it's coming for me
    Oh no harm done, except as far as the eyes can see
    The only issue for me, as cavalier as it seems
    Is how you handle extremes, you never bother
    Before I let you destroy, the very world I enjoy
    You gotta do what you do

    Let's be honest, I watched you walk away
    You went off to find, anything else, anything less
    I guess
    I'm only honest, I'm only here to say, yeah
    You've been gone so long, everything else, is already less
    On your own

    I'm a slave, I will beg
    All I want is something better, something that is safe
    You can say, you will stay
    But I know fucking better, you will never change

    Let's be honest, I watched you walk away
    You went off to find, anything else, anything less
    I guess
    I'm only honest, I'm only here to say, yeah
    You've been gone so long, everything else, is already less, I guess
    Let's be honest, I watched you walk away
    You've been gone so long, everything else, is already less
    On your own
    On your own
    On your own
    On your own Writer/s: COREY TAYLOR, JAMES ROOT, JOSH RAND, ROY MAYORGA, SHAWN ECONOMAKI
