Title: The Beatings Will Continue until Someone Breaks the Stick

Lyrics:

Predict the words you'll find in every human's saddest song.
A lesson learned, a lesson lost.
Only the insane repeat their ways and expect it all to change.
This same old rose, this same old thorn.

It makes my life
Feel inside out and thirty seconds long
I'm so sick
Of seeing this damn blueprint make us all go wrong.
It couldn't be simpler,
Just live the rest of your life all alone and free.
What's so hard
About closing off and never going back?

Are you so numbed out your muzzle feels like it's separate from your face?
A glass of water makes it stop
Maybe I'm just a cold-blooded drake, but can't we just put our thoughts to rest?
The silent mind will calm your soul.

It hurts so much,
I had it in myself to close it off for good.
It feels so good,
I made the perfect choice in getting out of here.
Rethink my love,
'Cause practice always led to something we just hate
That crushes us
And makes us feel like everyone just wants us dead.
But I got ahead.
Instead of crawling back I drowned my need for love
To manifest.
I made the perfect choice in getting out of here.
And now I know
I had it in myself to close it off for good.

(super long dragon's tail of a coda)
