Got outta bed the other morning
Took a look outside
Fire falling from the heavens
couldn't believe my eyes
Stepped outside to see
Almost tripped and fell
There were explosions all around
Only thought was "what the hell?"
I tried to go back in but it was too late
Flaming rock connected with me, smashed in my fucking face
My skull shattered to pieces
I fell right down
My brains splattered out all over the ground
And all of this is just fine
And all of this is okay
I'm not losing my sight
I've not lost my way
Now there's nothing left of me
My mind has been set free
Roam around as a ghost
Try to see what could be
Now there's nothing left, you see
My mind has been set free
Roam around as a ghost
Seeing what could be
And all of this is just fine
And all of this is okay
I'm not losing my signs
I've not lost my way
And all of this is just fine
And all of this is okay
I'm not losing my might
I've not lost my way
And all of this is just fine
And all of this is okay
I'm not losing my sight
I've not lost my way

What the hell is going on?
Why can't I just write these songs?
Syncope, my head is gone
Syncope, no sword is drawn
Feeling nervous, there's a pall
Strike my head against the walls
Blood seeps out of my tear ducts
No one cares; who gives a fuck?
You can't save me
I'm a monster
I'm a bastard
I'm a coward

Right
Now
Can you feel my heart?
Can you feel my pain?
Everything is gone
Nothing fucking remains
Can you feel my heart?
Can you feel my pain?
Nothing is left
Nothing fucking remains
Nothing here is mine
Everything is yours
I'm down on my knees
My face is in the floor
Right
Now
(I'm open wide, but there's nothing inside)
Can you fucking get up?
Can you tell me what's wrong?
I can't make it out
I'm not that strong
Can you get off your knees?
Can you tell me what's the matter?
I can't make myself
Feel less scattered
Everything is wrong
Everything is flawed
Nothing fucking feels right
Nothing fucking feels sane
Everything in my life
Has caused me pain
Nothing fucking feels right
Nothing fucking feels sane
Everything in my mind
Fucking causes me pain
Nothing ever feels good
Nothing ever feels right
Nothing in my life
Has ever given me light

The layers of my skin are crumbling away
Peeling and unfurling, but it's okay
I like the hurt
I like the pain
I'm feeling great
There's no disdain
I'm in these chains
There's no escape
But it's okay
It's okay
Where did my soul go
Felt it dissipate a long time ago
Try my best to see the light
But the future's not looking so bright
Try my best to wait and see
But my hatred's got the best of me
I hate the hurt
I hate the pain
I can't revert
Out of this change
I broke my chains
There's no escape
It's not okay
Nothing's okay
I hate the hurt (I hate the hurt)
I hate the pain (I hate the pain)
I can't revert (I can't revert)
Out of this change (I'm out of change)
I broke my chains (My chains are broken)
There's no escape (Fuck this game)
It's not okay (It's not okay)
I'm not okay (I'm never going to be okay again)

This Is Why I Exist
02:01
|
|

|
Merging man and machine
An all-seeing god
Reject the doctrine of these
The theology's flawed
All of this stimuli
Overwhelming me
I can't process the sights
I feel my mind melting
There is a way to fix this
This here is why I exist
My old self disappears
Feel the hardware reset
I know new power here
Lux in tenebris lucet

I hid away just like a crocus
Didn't think you would find me there
I laid alone inside the garden
I covered my face with my hair
And now I'm alone
(Dreams are distant memories)
I can't go back home
(Feelings long forgotten)

I want you
To take this gun
And blow my mind
This pain is mine
I want you

I wanted to be the one
To see the ending
To see the end of this
I wanted to be
I wanted to be the one
At the end of this
But I don't think I'll make it to the end
I'm not gonna make it
I don't think I'll make it out (I'm not gonna make it out)
I don't think I'll make it
I don't think I'll see it
I wanted to be
I wanted to be the one
At the end of this

Where is my heart?
What have I wrought?
I just need a break
Time to think upon my mistakes
When you think about it
When you talk about it
There's no getting past it
I've been self destructive
My mind has betrayed my heart
In a war against myself, I am torn apart
Oh, my god
Take my heart and rip it into little pieces
Take my body, strike until there's nothing left
I am one with my suffering, can't escape it
Can't deny this feeling that I truly do deserve it
I think I'm done now
Go (Choke)

You know I'd do anything to help
Didn't want to put you in this hell
You know I tried to save myself
But I can't make it out

Breathe in deeper now
Breathe in deeper now
Breathe in deeper now
Breathe in deeper, breathe in now

I fell apart
Took my mind with me
You know I wanted to help
I only wanted to help
I fell apart
Took my mind with me
My mind
Can we share one last touch?
Holy shit I love you so much
I love you so very much
