about

"One-Sided Dialogue" is my final message (in conversation form, without the input of a second party) to a former good friend who became a sex offender, and explains my unrelenting resentment towards him.

lyrics

I still remember the day
I don't know if you do
But you should

You cost someone a life that day (almost)
Not physically, but
Mentally and socially

And it's all your fault
How does that make you feel?

Hello?
Are you still tuning in?
Am I coming through clearly?
I think you should apologize right now
And do it sincerely

Let her know you mean it

Even though no amount of words
From your disgusting, scummy mouth could ever make up
For what you've done
And who you've hurt

Do not undermine me
Listen: I say stop

I'm still giving you shit
Four years later
Because you deserve it
And your actions have been perpetuated
By the follow-up
And there's nothing you can do to take it back
And I don't expect you to try

I promise, I'm not joking
And when I say to stop
When I tell you to let it go, to leave it be
I mean it: just leave it alone
Go away
Goodbye
