Drowning

Standing in a garden of fallacies

That I found as I awoke from this lucid dream

Brick by brick I let you build my prison

Renumeration for my suffering

I've burned my candle out at both ends

I've traded pain for apotheosis

Is this sentence escapable?

Or is my pain my only home?

Cold and distant

I shiver at your touch

Is this salvation? (Salvation)

Or have I seen this all before?

In repose

It's as if I saw this coming

I dream of drowning in the black

Just to feel something again

I fear falling asleep at night

I fear discovering these nightmares

That creep into my mind

I fear falling asleep at night

I fear discovering these nightmares

I dream of drowning in the black

Just to feel something again

I cheated God in the deal we made, rah

I cheated God in the deal we made

But nothing ever lasts forever

I see myself in you, but we are not the same

The only common ground we share is this goddamn name

I cheated God

I cheated God

Blame me for my past, don't forget my name

From the surface, everything seemed brighter

But behind my mask (Behind my mask)

I'm chasing the rainbows in my head

I let them in

The wolves have waited patiently

Their claws are digging in

And I start to feel alive again

I fear falling asleep at night

I fear discovering these nightmares

That creep into my mind oh whoa

I fear falling asleep at night

I fear discovering these nightmares

I dream of drowning in the black

Just to feel something again
