lyrics

malice breeding illness everlasting
nothing really seems to even matter anymore
i crack a smile and appease them
maybe i'm dead
maybe i am suffocating
what does it help if i can feel my soul escaping?
soothing agony awaits me every time i close the door
i hate this
i hate pretending
i hate deserving
i'm sick of rejecting
these little blue shapes
i saw blue skies
but now i only see the ocean that i'm drowning in
finding me revelry, bathe me in misery
holding my hand
numbing outside
fogging the glass
wiping me clean

grinning becomes gritting of teeth
the air smells of salt and it's burning my skin
undulating body under masses of muscle and sinew
gives away the illusion of knowing that i'm okay

forfeit
you'll live
cave in

happenstance is everything material
harboring, malignant
empty terminal
eyes like coffins
tell me, how's it feel?

teething on a brand new emotion i can trust
i don't know if what i'm feeling is even real

i see through my eyes but i do not recognize the body
blood labored to facetious mimes and dances
painted in a frame crooked, cracked to perfection
fatal injection of confidence brings me crashing down
i thought that i had finally found something that i could live in
galvanized and shaking
something sated her in her midst
another broken promise
everything you say, now i will admit
i cannot bear to listen anymore
anymore

fading to gray
i don't know who i am anymore
