Текст песни
[Intro: Chaos Theory]:This story has two messages
One apparent, and one hidden
Can you figure them both out?
[Verse 1: Chaos Theory]:
Over 50% of first marriages end in a divorce
Nonstop arguing, not a single ounce of remorse
Unfortunately a lot of parents neglect their kids
Bickering makes them forget what responsibility is
That's the situation in the story you're about to hear
12 year old Matt stuck in the middle of hate and tears
Now what's a kid of that age expected to do?
Comes directly home from school and locks himself up in his room
Runs upstairs completely ignoring his mother
She doesn't care so they don't even speak to one another
Dreading the decreasing minutes until his father comes
From a terrible job arriving to an unhappy home
Matt's parents can't even calmly communicate
He can't recall the last time they went on a date
The starting parts of a seperation are always hard
Matt's method of coping is leaving his body scarred
[Hook]:
What's that metronome I hear?
Perhaps the end is drawing near
You never hear the shot that takes you down
[Verse 2: Chaos Theory]:
He was utterly blind-sided, never saw it coming
His father promised him that he would always love his mother
And after a while of thinking about it Matt made a conclusion
"They don't talk to me so I must be the reason why they do this"
In a couple of weeks the divorce will be finalized
Matt begs and pleads tears flowing out his eyes
And yet the parents continue to ignore him
Unable to face the greatest problem standing before them
They don't have the family dinners he loved anymore
Two knocks means that the food is left at his door
Matt waits for his parents to leave and grabs the food
He's alienated and has no clue what to do
After 3 days he has no will to see
Food in his sight, vomiting every single thing he eats
"Maybe money is the problem, I'll do whatever to help
I could be of some assistence if I starved myself
[Hook]:
What's the metronome I hear?
Perhaps the end is drawing near
You never hear the shot that takes you down
[Verse 3: Chaos Theory]
The first week passed, Matt's mother gets a call
From his teacher explaining to her that something is wrong
His mother asks, "What's the problem, is it with his grades?"
The teacher retaliates, "He hasn't eaten in days
He told me of the divorce you're in the middle of
You're unknowingly forgetting him and showing him love
I'd recommend thinking of him in this rough time"
"I don't need you telling me how to raise my child"
Later Matt comes home to see
Both of his parents are awaiting for him patiently
His father says, "I hear what you've been doing all week
You're not leaving this room until you have some food to eat"
Matt refuses but his dad doesn't have the patience
He picks him up by the collar, shoves the plate in his face
Viciously slaps him across the face a number of times
Screaming and hollering, him and his mother start to cry
[Hook]:
What's the metronome I hear?
Perhaps the end is drawing near
You never hear the shot that takes you down
[Verse 4: Chaos Theory]:
Matt's dad snaps out of it, puts him on the ground
Crying over him like, "Son, please forgive me now"
He pushes him away and yells, "I'm tired of this
It's my fault you argue all the time, I'm sick of it
I stopped eating to hopefully help you both
A mom and dad should be happy living together at home
But I see that I'm the problem so I promise I'll take care of it
And maybe then you two can be together again"
An hour passes, Matt's trapped himself in his room
His parents are contemplating over what they should do
"We're the problem and we both need to talk to him
Make him understand that it's us and we're not faulting him"
"Matt, can you come out here?" No response
"Matt, are you listening to me?" No response
It didn't take them long to see that something was up
But when they got in his room, they were left in shock
[Hook]:
What's the metronome I hear?
Perhaps the end is drawing near
You never hear the shot that take you down
[Verse 5: Chaos Theory]:
Matt killed himself, put a scarf around his head
Tied it to a ceiling fan, jumped and it snapped his neck
Not a suicide note for them to find here
Only thing he left behind was a face of dried tears
His mother fell to her knees screaming all that she could
"Matt, no... if I could change things I would"
His father cries, "We've been caught up in other stuff
And now our beautiful son is dead because of the both of us"
No one wants to see a sad kid take his life
But it's true, this happens in everyday lives
Houses are filled with hatred when they should be filled with smiles
Forcing another taken life from an innocent child
Hopefully this song hits somebody's mind
To never neglect family no matter what problems arise
People ask why this was so sad from the beginning
Cause in reality, stories of this stature lack a happy ending
Перевод песни
[Стих 5: Теория хаоса]:Мэтт покончил с собой, надел шарф на голову
Привязал его к потолочному вентилятору, прыгнул, и он сломал ему шею
Не предсмертную записку, которую они могут найти здесь
Единственное, что он оставил после себя, это лицо засохших слез
Его мать упала на колени, крича изо всех сил
«Мэтт, нет ... если бы я мог что-то изменить, я бы сделал это»
Его отец плачет: "Мы были заняты другими делами
И теперь наш прекрасный сын мертв из-за нас обоих "
Никто не хочет видеть, как грустный ребенок лишает его жизни
Но это правда, такое бывает в повседневной жизни
Дома наполнены ненавистью, когда они должны быть наполнены улыбками
Заставить еще одну отнятую жизнь у невинного ребенка
Надеюсь, эта песня поразит кого-нибудь
Никогда не пренебрегать семьей, какие бы проблемы ни возникали
Люди спрашивают, почему это было так грустно с самого начала
Потому что на самом деле у историй такого уровня нет счастливого конца
