We forget our names. The hair grows down over our eyes Our teeth sharpened to points and we will never be safe and we are gone We are never going back. We are animals, and we fight ourselves to the death Homeless. We slaughter each other. We tear meat from our own carcasses We rape and eat the weakest ones and one by one, we disappear And soon our scars become the ornaments that define us We build a fire in our homes and comfort burns us down

They see through walls. They watch us sleep and it never ends It only gets worse and we'll be sorry one day. The page that we never turn past The night that lasts for days. And when skin becomes paper we'll know why we couldn't stay here What have we done? What have we learned? Our fables become our dedications Black ocean. We never saw it coming. Our towns become prisons They hunt us down and we our hides to keep their fur dry Tie yourself to the stake. Peel your skin back. Become their prey and it never ends It only gets worse. And we'll be sorry one day when the lives we build are worth no more than the lives we take

The hottest day in history. We are not asleep. Encased in endless night Our refinement degenerates and we are nowhere Every boundary we've marked for ourselves becomes obsolete. Wipe the slate clean To the beginning and this time there is no return. We steal weaknesses and devour them As the cold sets in. We ensnare ourselves in our own submission to the subtle trappings of our own conveniences

How quickly our morality devolves before the fear of pain We sell our children off. Now we speak in a different language This is where we sleep tonight. We took it all. Drug mules with fear in our stomachs A self-induced coma to forget our failure And if we could only claw ourselves open, we could fight over our cooling entrails for a moment of warmth We're fucking dead. They left us to fend for ourselves We mourn their deaths but we overlook what they gave their lives for We have nothing. We took it all. We have nothing. We gave it all away. We have everything

This is the end. The sun sets on our broken backs and we've been here before And we are left without a single thing. Without a heart We are armed to the teeth. Without a single thing. We are nothing more than ink on paper We travel through their fingerprints Our clothes become bandages to ease the pain of selflessness We will never trust ourselves and this is how it begins They sift through our abandoned homes but they won't find us They won't find our secrets, encased alive beneath the floor They have abandoned us. They hunt us down. They hunt us through seasons They hunt us for years. This is the end

This is what we get. We are to blame. The consequence we will always underestimate We move in darkness. Our stolen conscience, overcome by instinct And the sun will rise. This is our home now But we don't understand how we did this to ourselves. This is where we sleep tonight Wet grass, night sky. We move in darkness. Our stolen conscience, overcome by instinct We hide in ruins of manmade arteries. Hunger alone remains relevant Sudden is something we understand now. We sleep with warm throats We wake with fearful hearts. We hear them breathing through the forest We sleep with warm throats. We covet our punishment

Our last chance has come and gone. We have earned our consequence and we stop here You're on your own and I embrace the end And I will begin again. Say goodbye. Goodbye to the life you hide behind We are an ocean of unspeakable secrets. But what we're not supposed to hear always sounds so much better Begin again. Give your life and in the end they greet you with cries of hate You always asked for it. Now take what you have left and say goodbye Goodbye to the life you hide behind

This is our last day as humans. We've given everything back Our cities have been abandoned. Our profound regret dissolves into nothing We no longer betray each other. We no longer feel hatred Avarice takes on new meaning and in no time no one will remember They find us hiding in the forest. They emerge from blackness wearing our skin They tear us to pieces and eat us alive. Their hooves break our skulls apart Their fur is slicked with our blood. Vegetation consumes ruins of our office buildings The forest engulfs our deserted parking structures Grass grows up through our highways. Our foregoing lives have been eaten away and in time no one will remember

No lyrics have been submitted for this track yet.
Our shame writes stories in the earth The days go by faster and faster but we'll never know loss. We'll never know selflessness We are the same. We become what we tell ourselves we are Equated in hatred and loathing. But we throw one last desperate swing at the carcass of civilization Our dependence on each other becomes cannibalistic We hold each other down and break our limbs off. But we'll never know selflessness We'll never know loss. We are the same
