| So diabolical, impossible to see
|
| We are a product of our mediocrity
|
| So what am I to you?
|
| Another name to scrape through the dirt
|
| We stare right into the truth, 'cause the truth stares back
|
| We press the pills to our lips, let the weight detach
|
| (From the shoulders down)
|
| This spirit is tainting, my muscles constraining
|
| (Your encroaching cloud)
|
| Apathy, all-enravelling, all-encompassing
|
| Want you to scratch me out, want you to cut me loose
|
| I’m hanging on for the pressure, waiting for the abuse
|
| Will you scratch me out, will you cut me loose?
|
| I’ve been clawing at your head but getting through to you is no use
|
| And I, I’ve been holding my breath for a while now
|
| Knowing I’ve got to breathe this air, makes me sick
|
| To think the gun was in my hand
|
| It was in my hand
|
| Want you to scratch me out, want you to cut me loose
|
| I’m hanging on for the pressure, waiting for it now
|
| I wanna feel the creaks of age come creeping
|
| Nobody steal my hurt from me
|
| A necronomicon
|
| Oh sweet fragility
|
| A fraction of a second passes
|
| Feels like an eternity
|
| And I, I’ve been holding my breath for a while now
|
| Knowing I’ve got to breathe this air, means I’m sick
|
| To death of it
|
| And oh, I’ve been holding my breath for a while now
|
| Knowing I’ve got to breathe this air and I’m sick
|
| To death of it
|
| Scratch me out, cut me loose |
