1.
The days of peace are behind me There's no stopping now I've been spiraling down There's no serenity now
2.
Dreams shattering I can’t feel my face I don’t know who I am As hopelessness sets deeper Salvation just feels farther I am empty somethings missing for all these years Nothing helps it’s getting worse Just a matter of time till I fall to this curse But when it happens it feels amazing A euphoria that’s ever lasting A thirst that I can’t quench This wound that never mends I am plagued But I did it to myself And I still burn In my own private hell Locked away Trapped in a cell Rotting away
3.
Twist me to your shape Bend me to your will My life is yours to take Make it so I can’t feel The ink invades Carved yourself in my soul My life is yours to take I don’t want to feel anymore You’ll be my end Let the poison flows inside My will is yours to break Let me fade away Watch the light fade As you flow through my veins Give in to the sin Fall to the disease To those it may concern This is the end Don’t look back Cuz there’s nothing left to save
4.
Where are the ones you served and protected This terrified cries and screams are now bodies to build your pulpit of fallacy What's left to be said to the face of a lifeless body Tell my family someday we'll meet Close my eyes put me to sleep An apology holds no weight Your mistakes cost a life Hiding from tragedy Born to be crucified Fatal error Irreparable blunder Picked a pistol and traded your morality Target on your back symbolizing treachery 1312 you fucking bitch Tyranny shielded by democracy Protect and serve Victims turning for help receiving misery Hunt and burn Homicide and rape in the name of serving God and country You picked your side and became a fucking enemy Protect and serve words you never learned You racist fuck
5.
Isolate Place the blame Breed a world of shame Let's seeds of self-hate bloom Spates of slander rain down Poison her roots There is nothing only you Drag her through your jagged field of lies Drown her in your oceans deceit Manipulate Cross the line Spew hollow promises of change Fickle words and empty love The breath you allow her is polluted air She doesn't dare make a move Suffocated soul existing in enervation Dread bleeds from her eyes Trapped in never ending lament Harvest her heart of gold to feed your ego Watch her will decay and the light in her eyes will follow suit Surround her with thorns of torment Words to waste her Words meant to cut deep forever yours to keep Coward Sleep light You will reap what you sow Broken bones I can't see her I can't reach her I can't save her While you kill her
6.
Show me the end of the story finish it for me Wash away the hopefulness suffocate the longing for relief Mourn my life Celebrate my tragedy Recreant Stick to your word Abrogate Your concern Alterity Consumes All that you are Paradox Conjugate Reasons to keep this up My plight lies with what's to come Centricity This needs to be done Held back by pantophobia I don't want to be you Did my eyes even open today I remember seeing lights trail away Nothing separates my day from day when I only wish to bleed We all suffer and fade away Dissipate into nothing Where did these visions come from I wish to die and fade Take me One more step to go I don't wanna be you I don’t want to breathe I don’t want to eat I don’t want to see I don’t want to dream Bury me bury me I don’t want my friends I don’t want to mend I don’t want to thrive I don’t want this life Bury me bury me I welcome demise I’ve run out of time I don’t want to live I don’t want to die Bury me bury me I don’t want to live I don’t want to die I don’t want to live I don’t want to die I don't want to be you anymore
7.
Reassurance rings like poetry into the ears that aren't listening That charming gaze will carry me, can't look away if I tried to Wear me thin, drown me out As much as I might like to, I know I won't ever escape you
8.
I know you didn't get away I scared you off so effortlessly You made me feel myself again A person I had since lost interest in I've fallen further down, I've fallen further from the tree than I anticipated No reaction to the pain I can't escape all the clouded memories Are we both truly better off? Living in these black-and-white worlds Reliving times, I know I'll never get back If everything is as it should be, why won't my mind stop racing? Are we better off, If I'm no one without you? What have I become? Who have I become? Sustained by the grace you feed me every fucking day Watch me succumb to my own fears and my own insecurities Heartsick repetition, I'm cold to the touch Blinded by everything You've always been I'll always be nothing When I'm by your side I'll always be nothing The sparkle in your eyes just wont die
9.
Am I wrong blaming every challenge that I face on you? Influence ever toxic, influence ever fierce Am I just meant to suffer? At the hands of the man with no life left in his eyes? Leave me numb Numb to the pain You put my mind at a standstill Both of my eyes are losing their color, they're losing their shine Firestarter On the hunt for new flesh On the hunt for immaturity Feed on the glory that you are craving Am I just meant to suffer? Forever? Well I cant That confidence, has always enticed me It'll get you so far Both my eyes, have lost whatever sparkle that they once had Am I wrong for blaming you For every sleepless night that I face? Meanwhile there's no love in those eyes You scan the room for the one with the brightest eyes To fee on immaturity A night forever with me, to the end of time. Set your traps Firestarter I close my eyes All I'm picturing is your lifeless eyes staring down at me Picturing the fire that you started, put it out Faggot Die out
