No Light Below
Suffocating in the grasp Life's cold fingers wrapped around my throat Constant searching for some relief Unknown salvation is what we seek Forward motion with blinded eyes What we need, left undefined Suffocation never ending Will to live is slowly fading into the dark Living is hurting my soul We weren’t made to feel this way How is it better than killing myself?

Swallowed by darkness Surrounded by flame A fire without any light Feeling the burn Consume every soul slowly All of existence resides underneath Longing for relief I reach, I plea That something would help or simply just end me Shadowed forever Eternal expansion Hope in the distance Always just out of reach I can see Illumination far above I long to know it I'm afraid nobody does No light, no light below Born in darkness, so it's all I know

Pull me down Drown me with earth My ribs, and prison Holding captive, my beating heart Where do I run? I feel the limitation Peel away, strip me clean Unrelenting humanity We can't fix it This sickness, repeating Unrelenting humanity We can’t change a thing Calcified collectively Can anything break it free? Thinking with one mind Forever unchanging I'm so sorry Peel away, strip me clean Unrelenting humanity This sickness, repeating Unrelenting humanity

Wounds aren't only restricted to flesh Cut into wood Carved into stone Lying much deeper than eyes can behold Infection will spread to the soul Wounds aren't always inflicted inside Cut into wood Carved into stone Cover the surface for eyes to behold Depression will harden the soul Scars run deeper than you think. Damaged and all alone In this bleak home, forced to grow cold Ignite the match Fuel the cleansing flame Burn it down Monument to grief and sorrow Burn it down Memories of pain

Separated voluntarily Or so it seems Born with hatred burning in my eyes How can I be okay? Living with such disdain Fists full of rage Grinding teeth Pissed off by everything I see I see the worst in man Their vile actions replay in my head I despise them Point the finger back at me I still hate what I see Admit the harsh truth I can't pretend I'm still one of them I'm no different No matter how hard I try I despise them, so I despise me too

We would drive through the night in my father's car We would run from the troubles and just follow stars We were young, dumb lovers, we were young We were young, dumb lovers, we were young We would dance in the dark like the world's a stage We would make out the rhythms of the pouring rain We go out 'till we're looking at the sun We go out 'till we're looking at the sun And you call me 'Trouble' when we turn around Back to the city of the 'lost and found' I can't wait 'till the next time, darling I can't wait 'till the next time, darling (Starting to feel again, starting to feel again) I think I'm starting to feel again, starting to feel again Starting to feel again, starting to feel again I think I'm starting to feel again, starting to feel again Starting to feel again, starting to feel again You know that I am starting to feel it You know that I am starting to feel it We would drive through the night in my father's car We would run from the troubles and just follow stars We were young, dumb lovers, we were young We were young, dumb lovers, we were young We would dance in the dark like the world's a stage We would make out the rhythms of the pouring rain We go out 'till we're looking at the sun We go out 'till we're looking at the sun And you call me 'Trouble' when we turn around Back to the city of the 'lost and found' I can't wait 'till the next time, darling I can't wait 'till the next time, darling (Starting to feel again, starting to feel again) I think I'm starting to feel again, starting to feel again Starting to feel again, starting to feel again I think I'm starting to feel again, starting to feel again Starting to feel again, starting to feel again

Total complacence Rejecting the obvious truth Calloused and bitter Separate, so what can I do? So what can I do? Nothing can mend it Twisted and in disrepair Violence, deception, rejection When will it end? When will it end? When will it end? A tolerated hate Nobody else relates to me Contorted thoughts in my head Imbalanced chemicals with no end Told to accept it Tolerate it, oh Tolerate it, oh Tolerate it

Hatred and anger aimed at each other Violently killing our own Accepting suppression Without any question So quick to cast the first stone I won't blame you If you decided to just look way In your place I'd do the same Sometimes I question, fearing rejection If something is even out there Observed from a distance All the injustice How could this be the plan? If I were you, I'd have given up Failure unending, why pardon us? What's stopping them? They could just pass the world

"Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere... In bars and cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere! There's no escape... I'm God's lonely man" Going through these thoughtless motions I move along the edge Waiting for the slightest friction Pushing me over the line Falling into the nothing that I've become Stranger among them, wrapped up in rage Lost in the busy crowd, emotion is barely contained Drifting in and out of sanity In a drab and dreary world I'm God's lonely man Alone in silence, I crave the pain With or without you I'll die alone, yeah Unfiltered rage flows through me The world's the victim, or it is it me?

Roots wrapped around every limb Holding me down to the earth She won't forgive me again I've learned to live with decay This hollow existence Could not even begin to satisfy The many needs of my dying flesh We become one Roots wrapped around every limb Holding me down to the earth She won't forgive me again And I've learned to live with decay Cold and dark The moon and sky look down On this delicate and foolish display The cycle of life and death will repeat Without any end We've been here before I've learned to live with decay
