V01.S01 - "The People I've Met" [2020 Album Version]

It’s not just the people I’ve met

As you wake and see me standing there

Gasping for air you slowly choke

Look up fast for your Mirror's broadcast

Isn't this fun? Make a mental note

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s this place and you that I want to forget

Burned down to ashes in your palace of regret

It’s not just the people I’ve met

As you’re fastened, you’re finally a victim

Due to lies, zip ties and rope

The last kiss you'll give Will seal and stamp

Your death notes envelope

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s this place and you that I want to forget

Burned down to ashes in your palace of regret

This news isn’t new to you I’d be willing to bet

(I’d be willing to bet)

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s this place and you that I want to forget

Burned down to ashes in your palace of regret

It’s not just the people I’ve met

It’s not just the people I’ve met

Song written and performed by Jeaux Morningstar.
