lyrics

Free from tyranny
A writhing itch of doubt
Man, it rumbles all throughout my homeland
All disdain
It’s echoed by the strange benign curiosity

The voices cry
Hoping they can save me
A child’s wish so I believe
We run in circles
Looking back on a dream
I’m dedicated to living in vain
I tried to smile
but you kicked out my teeth
And you left me here
(To fight a war)
To fight a fucking war

(Tell me what happens now)

Shut it down

Following the crash that we echoed
We always held dear
In high regard
The only severed vain
Is the one that carries loathing to my heart
And It’s the art
Of living day to day
A reprobate they say
It’s not my call
It’s either trapped in my reveries
Or in perpetual shame

The voices cry
Hoping they can kill me
I only wanted to believe
We run in circles
Looking back on a dream
And now I’m subject to writing in pain
I tried to smile
but you kicked out my teeth
And you left me here
(To fight a war)
To lose my own fucking war

(Tell me what happens now)

(I’ll try everything this way)

In a halted state of progress
There are still some things we need to convey
Bring my blood to a boil
(I can be myself this way)

If I put that razor to my neck
I can find what I need potentially
Go on and let me
(build me up and let me go)
I’m teetering on the edge of the world
As blood run down my face
