Grief

Unrelenting tension
My world falls apart
The life that I know pulled away
Stuck in the same place
Searching for change
Searching for something to numb the pain
I feel the hand of death
Over your soul
While you rest your head
I never thought I'd hope for the end
When you clung to life
By a fucking thread
Though I grieved in your passing
I know the world was too much to take
I would have carried your pain
But I will live in your memory
Unrelenting tension
I can't fucking breathe
I can't feel the ground beneath me
Show me a purpose
Show me a sign
It's not safe inside my mind
I feel the hand of death
The sickness seething
Inside your chest
And as you breathe
Your final breath
I'm left with nothing
Forced to the edge
Though I grieved in your passing
I know the world was too much to take
I would have carried your pain
But I will live in your memory
Thick skin cuts the deepest

Sleepless eyes
Thoughts desert my mind
Hands around my neck
The hands of time
Do you remember who I used to be
Reflection of my true self
Reflection of my true self
A shattered mirror
The glass digs into my skin
Bleeding love
Bleeding fear
I will bleed until there's nothing left
No air in my lungs
No blood in my veins
I died a million times
To be born again
I watch the ties come loose
To form a fucking noose
I never had the choice
I was born to lose
Reflection of my true self
A shattered mirror
The glass digs into my skin
Bleeding love
Bleeding fear
I will bleed until there's nothing left
Pull the air from my lungs
The blood from my veins
Let me die again
I'm fucking sick of change
Let nothing take root
Let it pass away
I'm fucking done with this
I'm sick of everything
Bend and break
The pressure cracks
And I fucking shatter
Bend and break
The pressure cracks
Nothing forever

I'm in the shadow of emotion
You're on the outside looking in
This place is fucking poison
I'll let you in
I'll let you feel my anger
I'll let you feel my pain
I'll let you feel what it means
To feel alive again
Just let the world callous you
Broken and bleeding
Just let the world callous you
I'm broken and bleeding
I'll swallow the pain
It's worth your touch
Give you everything
So I'll shut my mouth
I will never speak
I will shut you out
I'll burn silently
When all you know is anger
And all I know is pain
When you're living in the dark clouds
I'm drowning in the rain
Sin eater sanctify me
Broken and bleeding
Sin eater sanctify me
I'm not your fucking saviour
You are a fucking destroyer
Let the blind lead the blind
See what the darkness brings
I'm not your fucking saviour

Reach

Do you feel it coursing through your veins
The happiness delusion
Reach for anything to forget
The monotony
So just breathe in
Let the air fill your lungs
It's like a drug
Just let yourself lose control
And then breathe out
Feel the ache in your chest
The emptiness you can't let go of
Beaten abandoned and abused
Left behind so confused
And broken hearted
I'm not like you
And I will never be
Do you feel it coursing through your veins
The happiness delusion
Reach for anything to forget
The monotony
So just breathe in
Let the air fill your lungs
It's like a drug
Just let yourself lose control
And then breathe out
Feel the ache in your chest
The emptiness you can't let go of
Beaten abandoned and abused
Left behind so confused
And broken hearted
I'm not like you
And I will never be
I am the product of my surroundings
I mirror the unseen
Turn my back to the viciousness of love
Get the fuck behind me
I will suffer through
I'm trading empathy
For misery
Pain for mistrust
Turn my back on everything
I used to love

Brace

Grey skies keep me in their grip
Where you will find me
With my lungs full of lead
I'm gritting my teeth
I brace for collapse
Mirroring the unseen
I caught a glimpse of fear
And fear looked back at me
Fear looked back at me
But you have not broken me
You have not broken me
I feel you watching
You have not broken me
You have not broken me
Do you feel it
Your lies keep me in their grip
Cutting deep
Blood starts to drip
I'm gritting my teeth
I brace for collapse
It's all I've ever known
I caught a glimpse of death
And death looked back at me
Death looked back at me
But you have not broken me
You have not broken me
I feel you watching
You have not broken me
You have not broken me
Do you feel it too
Is this darkness in you
There's a darkness in me
And I know
When I close my eyes I can see
Life passing by without me

Drown
04:00
|
|

Your breath on my skin
The noose around my neck
Choking who I was to death
Love is never enough
To save you from yourself
I've had to cut way too many ties
Way too many ties
Just let me lay here for a little while
Let my heart turn cold
Drowning pain with hatred
Drowning out the world
And I will drown you out
Your skin on my skin
The gun against my head
Pull the fucking trigger
Because I'm already dead
Love is never enough
To save you from yourself
I've had to cut way too many ties
Way too many ties
I will drown you out
Let the waves wash everything away
I will drown you out
Just let me lay here for a little while
Let my heart turn cold
Drowning pain with hatred
Drowning out the world

Backbreaker
03:00

Face down
Just take me now
I'm fucking sick of the pain
I'm fucking sick of myself
And I'm here face down
Alone again
With nothing
No one
Pull me out
Black out the sun
So I can be alone
A broken failure
With a heart of stone
Backbreaker
I'm always shutting down
I'm always losing sleep
I always hang my head
It cuts so fucking deep
And it never fucking ends
Forever I will be
Trapped in this monotony
Black out the sun
So I can be alone
A broken failure
With a heart of stone
Backbreaker
You took everything from me
Backbreaker walking on glass
Forever and ever
Backbreaker breathing my last
Forever and ever

Burden

My heart is heavy
It weighs on my lungs
And I can't breathe
Time moved on
Forgot my face
I'm the victim of my own mistakes
Life dragged on
It's dragging me
Let me go
Let me be
What you never wanted
It fucking kills me
Let it grow
Let it breathe
Cut it open
Let it bleed
Let me in
Let me see
What I could be
Let me in
Let me see
Bury my frustration
Bury my head
Breathe in these moments
And hold your breath
Tighten your grip
As it slips through your fingers
Wait for death
You learn that life moves on
Without you
Without me
Without us
I'm not the same
I've fucking changed
A false reflection
A violent wave
Life drags on
Dragging me
Let me go
Let me be
Something I never wanted
It fucking kills me
Let it grow
Let it breathe
Cut it open
Let it bleed
Let me in
Let me see
What I could be
Let me in
Let me see
Everything
My heart is heavy
It weighs on my lungs
And I can't breathe
My heart is heavy
It weighs on my lungs
And I can't breathe
Open my eyes
So that I can see
That I'm the victim of my own mistakes
It fucking kills me
