lyrics

You've been called out for your pompous last display,
and you've got some gall to try to fight your friends
and spew nothing but hate.

So be honest.
You never liked us anyway.
So, you slandered our collective name.
We welcomed you
and wished that you'd succeed,
but your frenzied ego had to feed.

You're the one who's jacked up now.
You had all these chances,
all you ever did was waste them.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
No, you never saw them through.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
You're the one who's jacked up now.
You'll get no more chances.
I'm done with all the waiting.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
You let it go and pass you by.
(Why do, why do we even care?)

And as a consequence
we cut you out.
And we've been missing you...
Oh, no wait, we haven't
cause we're better off without you.

Why do you treat us like we're rats!?
Stop-
now speak.
Why did you do this to us?
I tried to understand but the ending just wasn’t enough.
So, tell me, tell us,
why do you treat us like a pest?
Is it too much to address, or were you trying to protest?
Your actions suggest and express that it was not addressed.
So, confess. I request.
Just what are you trying to tell us?

And now we know
that you would blame any of us.
Of course, it's not your fault.
And maybe one day soon you'll see
the little rat that you turned into.

You're the one who's jacked up now.
You had all these chances,
all you ever did was waste them.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
No, you never saw them through.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
You're the one who's jacked up now.
You'll get no more chances.
I'm done with all the waiting.
(Hate you. Hate us. Hate you)
You let it go and pass you by.
(Why do...why do we even care?)

Now that you’re done
you listened to our voices.
(You had all these chances)
Thinking back now to
what were your choices.
You never saw them through.
(You never saw them through)
You always had an excuse.
Rats! Rats? Rats! They're all gone.
What should we do?
(You'll get no more chances)
Thinking back now to
everything we've been through...
We’re done with all the waiting.
You let it go and pass you by.
