Embrace Me // Erase Me

Nails scratching at floorboards begging to stay A pathetic attempt to break from the world Stagnant in my own selfish love unreturned Spending everyday praying for the end of a life Just as shallow as the cowards i surround myself with And it pounds away Knowing that i bathe in inevitabilities just to fill this space Knowing i would do anything for peace Just a piece of the faith i can smell and see (in you) (keep building skin of dust and stone) The kingdoms of my mind will learn to live to let go Untouchable. you are untouchable And i just wanna sleep

An untimely shell of anything that i am (bloody knuckles and skin cracked hands) Nothing to comfort me. no one will come for me (swallowed by something bigger, cogs in a larger machine) The last bastion has burned down The concrete cracked below my feet Confidence shoved down your f*cking throat Skin cocoons wearing fast and thin (screaming for change) I will always be alone Forever scorned and forever unloved But you'd never know

Embrace me I am a machine Erase me Bring down the gates We carry this weight Days fall away Leave me. let me in Begin again (i swear i can't) "this is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper"
