Feel the cold
They unfold
Broken hearts
What's the cost
Feeding shame
Feeding flames
Ghosts and lore
Take my form
Can't escape
Anything
Can't escape
Anything
I removed the asphalt to find concrete underneath. All the birds are dead. Clouds can’t form, they don’t hold together. The sun dimmed itself to be observed and not a soul witnessed. Colossal, mass failure (inspired). Insects refuse their hand in decay and our bodies lay preserved as sun bleached corpses rather than skeletons. Lord, I burden many. Found to finish foolishly under every circumstance. Fire is finding water in every ignition. Water is finding fire in every condition. Mountains form in minutes while homes are built in decades. My house is 12 years old. My house is made of obsidian and stained glass. You’d find concrete underneath it all though. We danced in the halls, we danced in the streets. Yesterday, God called upon us to help. Unbenounced to them, my skin is splitting and my blood depleted. Fear already became me. Foolish of anyone to ask anyone anything if you ask me. Thankless tasks are all we have left. Disagreement won’t be found from me. Killing is something best left to those who don’t matter. There’s a drought and they’re replacing water with glue. They say adhesive is needed to attach the soul. Mine is dismembered entirely but it’ll grow back. I’ve collected every tooth I’ve ever found and now I have a mouth. Sometimes I’ll question it all but there are no answers
Burning light
Outlive me
Not well liked
Now you see
Burst into
Ardent flames
I see through
my fake games
Can't escape
Anything
Can't escape
Anything
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution
To be stepped on and to stick is my only contribution

Cling to nothing
Scene to dream no cutting
Serene the ring
Running to shutting
Losing my mind
Blurring the line
Clouded claims
Unnatural names
Annoyed and frustrated with the world
Specifically those who live on it
Breathe the air and smell the shit
Everything, everyone so cold
I socialize and feel a sinking pit
All the handshakes
All the hugs
I obsess over little mistakes
No feeling too real but my mind won't bend
From kneeling to reeling the mind doesn't end
Paranoid fantasy
Social anxiety
Paranoid fantasy
Social anxiety
Callous nastily
Caught up in the vanity
become the casualty
Free from freedom
Trickier tapestry
The way they handle me
Masked agony
True tragedy
The head is rattling
the sound won't stop
No point in battling
The sound won't stop
Everytime Everytime
The future doesn't exist
Everyone wants to suture and stitch
Its hard to live its hard to get by
Its hard to live its hard to get by
I never do the right thing
I never do the right thing
My futures hopeless i can see that now
I never do the right thing
I never do the right thing
My futures hopeless i can see that now

Mixed signals dont excuse the man
Tricked figures getting tame and tan
Fires burning gets the same hand
Shyer turning inward on the same plan
can't accept any conclusion
Every time it seems to worsen
We all have the same illusion
Trust your government with your sovereignty
Cause they will perpetuate our poverty
Blessing and a freedom to own property
But ill give my life to a man ive never met
And never stop toiling with rent
We have such few amenities
But higher taxes to kill someones enemies
Disenfranchised little rats with a stomach full of lies
Pulling strings on a country full of lies
On the Tv
Its all fake I was
I was there
I was in person
When they Broadcasted and i watched it on the tv
It was fake
It was all fake
They control what we see and its all fake
It was all fake
It was all fake
They control everything
It seems like this should be illegal
Kinda makes you wonder whos behind the scenes
Like a government
Like a government
Head in our own ass
We find a scope goat
It's often racial
Its often religion
Overseas terrorizing citizens
These trained dogs sniff out oil
Find a whiff and the world foils
They pick wars over countries ideologies
Kill their citizens and call it liberation
Mass murder often is the methodology
Destroy cultures, control causation
We see the watered down effect
Information just comes and goes
there’s a fatal disconnect
Its artificial and it clearly shows
Is this country worth fighting for
Dangle college in your face, Promise healthcare with no space
We all should have had this before
Taking money with no trace, promise healthcare for your race
Take your time one needs it

The Day (Corrected)
05:32

I know i cant get help
No lungs i cant yell
Breathing deep i feel nothing
Shouting my name get to shunning
Losing hope i get to running
Bleeding deep im living shit
There is no hope
There is no light
Worthless down to the cell
Something ill scream and yell
Ring my neck ring the bell
I cant change myself no matter who i tell
Stupid fucked up idiot
Freak no matter how you figure it
Shriek no matter whos hearing it
Mystique suicidal detachment
Cry myself
Too sleep
Inflict pain on myself
Just cant see another day
My illusion shattered every way
My illusion shattered every way
Id take it all back
Every word i've ever said
Every piece i've ever made
Every word written
Better off without a trace
With my feelings hidden
Better off without a face
Beating on a dead rhythm
In a vacuum id leave this place
Hyperventilate can't feel my face
Pure distress there's no end to this race
Constant stress feel like a fucking nutcase
I want to say goodbye
Spend everyday thinking how i want to die
Everything ends in suicide
How did i get here
i was just a kid full of cheer
No one will see those bright eyes again
What the fuck is wrong with me
What do i have to complain about
I just plain cant fucking stand me
And yeah its something i cry about
Cant take daily life and i put that on my knife
Disappear one day and my memory will just fade away
I yearn that day
the day/today

SSRI

No need for energy
Anything to better me
Im at my wits end
Suicidal but not enough to mend
What the fuck do you even mean
I have no plan
I follow my lead
Healthcare sham
can't get the help i need
Ssri
Sit and wait
Mate and die
Shy from weight
Now it's too late
Live and die a burden
Putting more on their plate
Close the curtain
Throw my body in a lake
This isnt working
Still not joy it's become my fate
Everything is hurting
And it's hardly 8
Death and i are flirting
We spew our hate
Panic Onset like prey and predator
Slap me and it likely wouldn't register
Pursued and collected, tear creditor
Consumed and defected, my character
I disregard what they say to me
I cant handle positivity
You hear me whine on all these tracks
I'm just a piece of shit that needs to close his mouth
Killing myself before i do
Self loathing
Government hating
Killing myself before i do
Self loathing
Government hating
Losing dimension but what else is new
Losing direction but what else can i do
They take my niceties as leniency
Pretend active rejection is strength
Less than nothing to lose
I'll die for anything
The gaps between tears and the soil
I'll die for anything
I know i can't get help
No lungs i can't yell
Breathing deep i feel nothing
Shouting my name get to shunning
Losing hope i get to running
Bleeding deep im living shit
There is no hope
There is no light
There is no god

Descent

I set the bar low
I set the bar low
I breathe again and i forget
I live again and i forget
Blow the smoke
Take the medicine
See you next week or maybe later then
Leaning down
Casting doubt
Leaning down
Casting doubt
I disregard what they say to me
I cant handle positivity
You hear me whine on all these tracks
Im just a piece of shit that needs to close his mouth
Killing myself before i do
Self loathing
Government hating
Killing myself before i do
Self loathing
Government hating
Losing dimension but what else is new
Losing direction but what else can i do
They take my niceties as leniency
Pretend active rejection is strength
Less than nothing to lose
Ill die for anything
The gaps between tears and the soil
Ill die for anything
Worthless death in the air
Fruitless retaining nothing
Thoughts of death
Thoughts of death
Thoughts of suicide
Thoughts of death
Thoughts of death that consume me
Everything lies, in my arms tonight
