  1. You Never Needed Me -:-- / 5:51

As the well-intentioned begin to sympathise
The true course of events has yet to synthesise
The hints you gave, I chose to ignore
The signs were grave, I was scared to hear more

You never needed me, you never did
You never needed me, now you never will

For a chance of parity, I would have fought
Your acts of vulgarity, ever present in my thoughts
You had the knowledge, but refused to share
Was it a lack of courage, or did you just not care?

You never needed me, you never did
You never needed me, now you never will

You’re hailing me, mailing me, failing me, I’m confused
You’re haunting me, daunting me, taunting me, can I be excused?
You’re grabbing me, stabbing me, jabbing me, I’m feeling bruised
You’re grating me, baiting me, berating me , I’m being used

I watched as you stole from me all my worldly goods
If greed doesn’t kill you, then penitence surely should
You saw me die, before your very eyes
You won’t deny, me my Swiss sunrise

You never needed me, you never did
You never needed me, now you never will
