virtual perish - break the whip lyrics

i look into these eyes so filled with innocent life
they think the world is fine, and so full of light
unaware of the strife, and the cries, and the fights
every day and night, people are not alright
remember when you asked if monsters are real
oh they’re real, and they’re nasty + your soul they wanna steal
they almost got mine, i lost so much time
i gotta whip you into shape if you’re keeping your mind
i won’t lie, this’ll hurt kid, i crack the whip
to make your skin thick against stones words and sticks
cry all you want now, get it out, get it all out
and trade that smile in for a scowl
and now i am your coach, i can’t be your friend
daddy isn’t home, and mommy’s never coming in
stop your sobbing, your whining, your screaming too
every day i’m disappointed in you
disappointed in you
(disappointed in you)

so what the h+ll is this, did you fail again?
unacceptable, second place can’t be a win
scream your heart out, i’ll gladly take it on the chin
the world screams louder, and i can’t escape its sins
i took the bullets they shoot so you don’t have to
i felt the helplessness, and their wrath too
i looked just like you, tears so thick they choke you
and i think i pushed so hard that i broke you
tried to save you from the monster, and i became the beast
that you see in your nightmares when you don’t succeed
i’m that voice in your head telling you to give up
the irony that i’m your anxiety, and i’ve done enough
it all came from fear of what would happen to you
my worries twisted your world into a blackened view
so stop your sobbing, your whining, your screaming too
is it too late to say i’m proud of you?
that i’m proud of you
(that i’m proud of you)

this life isn’t easy
(toxicity breeds, and it’s hard to even breathe)
you’re feeling mistreated
(and you’re not alone)
i can’t make you see it
(focus on your faults til they retreat)
i’ve left you defeated
(and you can’t go on)
you’ll never be beaten
(got your back, this time i’m with you)
your light’s not depleted
(i have faith in you)
i see you succeeding
(in spite of all i put you through)
i know what you’re feeling
(i’ve been through this too)

and i apologize

(and i apologize!)
escaping the pain that i projected
(i!)
pushed too hard, was too protective
(why!)
didn’t i stop to correct it?
(i!)
regret this!
so i apologize!
(so i apologize!)
should’ve looked at me instead of you
(i!)
never really thought i could hurt you
(try!)
to do what’s best for you, so i
(i!)
break the whip and make it up to you
i’ll spend the rest of my life making this up to you
