Face your annihilation Face your existential reckoning Obsession, crawling out of our own skin Our appetite is limitless Disillusioned, we overstate our significance In the ashes of our negligence Defending our consumption Underneath a deadened sky All hail to our selfish pride What a legacy to leave behind Can you face what we've become? Waiting on the tide to rise while we livе on borrowed time Therе's nowhere left to run Waiting on the smoke to rise, close your eyes Welcome to paradise Gravedigging, pull down your window shades If you don't look then it won't decay Indifference, we're dancing on our own graves We all go out the way we came Powerless to stop what we became Blot out the sun, the ground gives way One more mistake 'til we suffocate No one here is safe Powerless to stop what we became Blot out the sun 'til the ground gives way One more mistake, you should be afraid The Reaper is coming, he will be paid Hasten our demise Nailed to a vice Marching in our own fucking disgusting cesspool paradise Can you face what we've become? Waiting on the tide to rise while we live on borrowed time There's nowhere left to run Waiting on the smoke to rise, close your eyes Welcome to paradise Oh, we can't see it dying out Little by little And we don't know the hell we made When we're right in the middle On borrowed time, saving change It's clear as crystal They couldn't pay us enough To blow the whistle On the road to oblivion (Close your eyes) Marching in our own death parade Close your eyes, feel the rhythm (Breathe the smoke) An ancient debt that will be paid On the road to oblivion (Close your eyes) Marching in our own death parade Close your eyes, feel the rhythm Welcome to paradise

The fault line's about to blow And the devil is at my throat Paved with good intentions, don't you know? I'm staring down a dead-end road Please call the doctor; I just saw a piece of me die I can't stop the bleed As dreams turn to nightmares right before my eyes Awake or asleep The gravity pulls me below And darkness is all that I know I'm breaking down and I need some room to breathe, oh, oh 'Cause the weight of this has got me down on my knees How the hell did I wind up here? Somewhere bеtween all I know and fear Caught my reflection in thе rear-view mirror My demons are closer than they appear And I can't remember the last time that I got out Trapped in a machine The only way out is if I go straight through it now I'm disintegrating I'm breaking down and I need some room to breathe, oh, oh 'Cause the weight of this has got me down on my knees, oh I think I'm paralyzed, paralyzed, oh I think I'm paralyzed, paralyzed I wanna scream, I need some room to breathe You can't save me You can't save me, oh, oh Why am I my own worst enemy? Haunted by my own worst memories Why am I my own worst enemy? Just push it down, push it down Push it down Hell froze over, now I'm stuck underneath My demons keep tearing me at the seams Trapped in a tunnel, can't stay composed Set me free, let me breathe I don't feel a thing I just need some room to breathe 'Cause the weight of this has got me down on my knees I think I'm paralyzed, paralyzed, oh I think I'm paralyzed, paralyzed I wanna scream, I need some room to breathe You can't save me (Why am I my own worst enemy?) (Haunted by my own worst memories) You can't save me, oh (Why am I my own worst enemy?) (Just push it down, push it down) You can't save me

We are not the same We built this fortress up brick by brick 'Til you came along and tried to knock it down Throwing knives around to see where they'd land There's the applause you wanted from the crowd You watched us fighting hard against the current Right when we needed you the most Oh, don't you see we don't believe a goddamn thing that you say? When it was easy to let go You turned your back A waste of my time is all that you are So don't look back Get out of my life, we don't know who you are Anymore I don't ever want to know what it feels like To become a shell of myself just like you (Just like you) Diving deep to help you find your voice But you can't find meaning in an empty room We were fighting hard against the current Right when we needed you the most Oh, don't you see we don't believe a goddamn thing that you say? When it got hard, you let us go You turned your back A waste of my time is all that you are So don't look back Get out of my life, we don't know who you are Anymore How does it feel How does it feel to be a filthy fucking rat? We're picking up the pieces Your best wasn't good enough And if you wanted atonement You'll get nothing from us You let it slip through your hands Haunted by thoughts when you're alone You wonder what could've been If you didn't let it go You turned your back A waste of my time is all that you are So don't look back Get out of my life, we don't know who you are Anymore We don't know who you are We don't know who you are We don't know who you are Anymore We are not the same
