It's not that i'm talking to myself again
that never stopped,
but now i'm starting to listen
and the voices in my head
keep telling me that i
should end myself
i never thought that, i'd be here again
but they keep on coming back
i keep letting them in
and i swear someday i'll tell myself
I'd rather outlive you
so i can dance on your grave
and that's more respect than you deserve
for making me feel this way
You can sit back
and tell me that it's all inside of my head
but that's the problem
you can sit back
and try to understand
but it's a pain i feel
almost everyday
it's more than i can ever write
more than i care to explain
but right now i can stand here and say
I'd rather outlive you
so i can dance on your grave
and that's more respect than you deserve
for making me feel this way
I'd rather outlive you
so i can live myself
so sick of being alive
for someone else

Hollow Shell
01:24
|

Hollow shell,
i remember a face
so full of joy and mine
once was the same
Hollow shell
how you've suffered a life
so full of joy
and i watched from the inside
Hollow like the life you lead
worn out tendencies
Hollow like the life you lead
full of the lies you bleed

Blood Thins
03:43
|
|||
I'm awake and i am breathing
i don't think things can get better than this
i'm a snake and now you're leaving
i don't care and i never did
I can't believe it's happening
I have forseen, still did nothing
Blood thinner than water
i drown my eyes
love bleeds no longer
unsatisfied
end of the rope
bonds were made to break
no place for hope
no end to this
Could i have been a thorn in all this ?
could i have stopped tragedy sing ?
so ignorant, ignorant bliss is my only sin
Ignorant bliss is my only sin
I'm alive and i am breathing
i don't think things can get better than this
i'm a snake and now you're leaving
i don't care and i never did
Blood thins, like the water i drown in
My sins, will be buried in my skin

Emptier Than Hate
03:19
|
|||
You always wanted me to create
something as beautiful as you said i was
well this is how i see myself
Nothing but a tired, miserable man
living his life with his head in his hands
no more love resides inside of me
now i've become emptier than hate
You said if i try i'd find something to live for
well here i am and i'm barely trying
Maybe i still hate myself
maybe i'm afraid to feel anything else
emptier than hate
You said if i try i'd find something to live for
i promise you that i'll start trying
Where do i begin to unlearn ?
weren't promises made to be broken ?
As the blood, in my veins
is replaced by anger
i'm so broken down and tired
of being nothing

Cavity

What do you know about the dark ?
what do you know about living
with your eyes sewn shut ?
what do you know
besides the warmth of your bed
and all the comforts of home ?
What do you know about the pressure ?
of living in fear of any direction
and place to go
and i one tracked mind set on sorrow
Constantly in doubt of anything substancial
What do you know about
living with your eyes sewn shut ?
Slowly losing my will to stand on my own
slowly losing my will to try
to be more than just a false step of
a failure to the ones i love
more than just the dirt at your feet
to be complete
Well I reckon, my actions don't seem justified on any terms
not when it's based on your outlook of perfection
a world still stuck in a monochrome mess
lower expectations are surely for the best
Imperfect but no one deserves this
Eyes wide open, my heart's in my hand
disregard my fears, my fate's unplanned
I'm in a cavity you can't find
relentless thoughts on my mind
deep down inside i know
there's no examples of this to show
What do you know about the pressure ?
of living in fear of any direction
and place to go
and i one tracked mind set on sorrow
Slowly unravelling, hopelessly pulling strings
Slowly losing my will to
stand on my own two feet
slowly losing my will
slowly losing my will to try

Sundown
03:48
|
|||
Drinking more than i need to
just to fall asleep some nights
and speaking less than i should
to help me save my life
It's all gotten so hard
since the pain came in
and tore my world apart
it's getting so fucking hard
since i tore my world apart
Sun please, stay down
like depression it'll come around
Sun please, stay down
like these days the sun will come around
and wake me from
my dreams of being free again
Sun please, stay down
And i know tomorrow wont be
so difficult but it's never set in stone
it's easier said than done
to leave this misery alone
Wake up, start again
i won't let this anger in
Wake up, start again
i won't let depression win
wake up, start again
Sun please, stay down
like depression it'll come around
Sun please, stay down
like these days the sun will come around
and wake me from
my dreams of being free again
Wake up, start again
i won't let this anger in
Wake up, start again
i'll greet the sun like a long lost friend

Sink
02:16
|

Do you remember the last
time that you meant a smile
do you remember the wind
brush your face or has it been to long now
since you've been hiding behind
the mask you've made
how long has it been ?
since you've been living this life
you suffocate your existence in
Sink back into a hole
won't you sink
to a place where no one knows that you exist
a boundary once overthrown wont you sink
to a place where no one knows you
You're not the light you were before
a reflection of what's not there anymore

Crows Feet

The lines above your brow
are getting more defined by the hour
i know i can wear a soul down
and my apologies for the tone i speak to you
and the mood i bring to the room
Don't get ahead of yourself
we both know that there's something wrong with me
don't get behind yourself, you're predictable
maybe change ain't a bad thing
maybe change ain't so bad when you're me
i'm sorry that it's only now that i'm sorry
The lines above your brow
are getting more defined by the hour
i know i can wear a soul down
i'm sorry that i wore your soul down
My apologies with no sincerity
i can't help myself when i speak to you.

Wasting Away
03:28
|
|||
Wasting away, wasting every single day
hiding my face, hiding away from reality
and this ain't a home anymore
it's just four walls, a roof and a front door
and i don't want to sit around
every night, on my own
reminding myself that i need to breathe
I don't want to be here anymore
set fire to the wind of the front door
as soon as i walk away
As soon as i walk away, erase my memory
I don't want to sit around
every night, on my own
reminding myself i need to breathe
Breathe
All i wanted a place
that i could drown my sorrows in
hang my head down low
I don't want to be here anymore
set fire to the wind of the front door
as soon as i walk away
I don't want to be here anymore
than you want me around
set fire to the wind of the front door
erase my memory.

Worry You
06:02
|
|||
It's getting past the point of irony
watching my life fall slowly into a dream
one you wake from cold and alone
sweat drips from my head down to my bones
Sunk eyes surrounded by a pale red hue
don't know where i am or how i should feel
It's getting hard to find
somewhere where i want to be
for more than a night of restless sleep
hellbent on being able to say that i'm okay
(i'm not okay)
I'm running out of lies
to tell you when i'm feeling blue
i just don't want to worry you
worry you
This house resembles the rest of my life
a goddamn mess that no one wants to be inside
"It's alright, you'll be just fine"
fuck you i just hate that line
Sunk eyes surrounded by a pale red hue
don't know where i am or how i should feel
but i've found a way to help me get through
Become a disconnect from everything
from everyone i've learnt to see
there's beauty in just getting by
i don't want to live my life
as a disconnect from everything
of everyone i've learnt to see
there's beauty in just getting by
i'm so sick of being tired all the time
And it feels so naive to say
"i'm not as sad as i used to be"
But it's still hard to find
somewhere where i want to be
for more than a night of restless sleep
Hellbent, but i can finally say
"I'll be okay"
