KHTDR |
| We scratch these walls that we have built |
| This disbelief is useless |
| We pull these stakes we’ve driven in |
| And I’m pumped dry, can you see it? |
| WE fade to black and I’m giving in |
| My blood, it spills on the city |
| I’m ripped apart, back at the beginning |
| Can I say? |
| This confession of the heart will bleed until its end |
| If we ever see the beginning |
| My throat is dried out, much like my patience |
| And your nails are digging in |
| As my ribcage cracks and I exhale this dying breath |
| I see your face |
| I see your face |
| And I see that perfect smile fade |
| These bones I keep in my closet keep me from the skin that is clinging to me |
| Not sure of what were the best days, and everything in between seems obsolete |
| I feel I’m grounded with this weight that is breathing down my neck |
| I’m paralyzed with no confirmation of hope yet |
| But the world will tease until all eyes are on me |
| With this bitter taste dripping off of my teeth |
| My bloody hands struggling to come clean |
| I’ve bled out all my reasoning |
| And I’ve watched your syllables subside |
| But for good measure this time I’ll smile |
| Until my teeth are rotting gums |
| Until I lose my fucking mind |
| I heard you’re doing great, I’m doing just fine |
| The blood these knuckles have spared hasn’t helped me wrap my head around this |
| And from the water’s edge, I’m losing mine in the shallow end |
| I’m the one in the back with fingernails in my eyes |
| It took me years to see the situation fit |
| Don’t look now as I fake a smile, a thought, memory when I don’t give a shit |
| I’ve said this all before |
| I’ve said it loud enough |
| And I’ve said it a thousand times |
| My veins are hollowed out and I drop like a bomb you never even saw coming |
| These last days and this blackened heart has ceased to beat |
| Won’t even start pumping |
| I always feel like I’m waiting around for tomorrow |
| These eyes can’t see what’s lying right there in front of me |
| What’s lying right there in front of me |
| And these walls all crumble to the ground |
| The sky is red and its coming down |
| I will never come down |
| I will never come down |
| We scratch these walls that we have built |
| But this time I am letting go |
| This time I am letting go |
| We pull these stakes we’ve driven in |
| But this time I am letting go |
| Fade to black our tomorrows… |
