Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gone- I couldn't murder your promise
Right before my eyes
The revolutions of my psychosis
Kept me outta the way
[Verse 2]
Once- inside- all I hold is ash
[Verse 3]
Fall- suppressing every feeling
I'm in so much pain
I have every fuckin' right to hate you
I can't take it
[Verse 4]
The hardest part was knowing that I could never be you
Now all I do is sit around and wish I could forget you
[Verse 5]
My demise- I took a life worth living and made it worth a mockery
I deny- I fold, but you keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die, but you're killing me
[Verse 6]
Who are you to me? Who am I to you?
Is this a lesson in nepotistic negligence?
By default, you are my only link to the outside
Psychosomatic suicide
Where were you when I was down?
Can you show me a way…
To face every day with this face- goodbye
[Verse 7]
My demise- I took a life worth living and made it worth a mockery
I deny- I fold, but you keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die, but you're killing me
[Verse 8]
When I blur my eyes, they make the whole world breathe- I see you fucking me
And I am absolutely controlling every urge to mutilate- the one and only answer
So much for memories…
I wanna dress in your insecurities
And be the perfect you- I'm through
I'm out- stretched out for all to loathe
Here we go- the ultimate irony
[Verse 9]
My demise- I took a life worth living and made it worth a mockery
I deny- I fold, but you keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die, but you're killing me
(Stop) KILLING ME
KILLING ME
