I'm a fish out of water Kill me and choke on the bones Nothing seems to matter anymore Gotta get back to the reason Gotta get back to the hole Someone throw me an anchor Gotta drown this disease No one seems to matter anymore Gotta get back to the meaning Gotta get back to the score Buy my soul so you can sell me I don't need this, I don't need you Trust your lies, then you betray me I don't want this, I don't want you Up the creek with no paddle Throw the oars overboard No one seems to care at all anymore Gotta get back to the meaning Gonna break backs of the poor Let me tell you a secret So you can tattle and leave No one holds to their honesty anymore Gotta get back to the stealing Gotta take back from the hoard Buy my soul so you can sell me I don't need this, I don't need you Trust your lies, then you betray me I don't want this, I don't want... ...you, I don't want to change Who do you wanna be? The summit of integrity Or the bottom, the filth, the dichotomy? All these fallen angels Skeletons of what they once were Hanging in the closet for the world to see Another fallen angel Faced by demons on their judgment Hanging from the gallows for us all to see it Nobody told me! Nobody forewarned! Nobody told me! Nobody forewarned! Buy my soul so you can sell me I don't need this, I don't need you Trust your lies, then you betray me I don't want this, I don't want you

Lend me your children to borrow I just need to send them away Long eyes and tears of sorrow I promise we'll keep them safe So sorry it didn't work out You believed the liar in me My God, my love, my life My world, my loss, my rage Agnostic for the greater good When the good things seem to be Few and far between Conscious, loss of conscience Packed the body on ice Just to keep it numb No feeling Blame some things on the past Threw away everything that I had Unraveling for the last time Stepping out of my skin Cast in armor The hate in me Feeling so empty The guilt I swallow Carve the line Skin the face Stare through me We'll leave you hollow Hollow Assembly of the militant Order through anarchy Eradicate the power's law Hope's a thing of the past Hold the gun to your head The hammer falls The hate in me Feeling so empty The guilt I swallow Carve the line Skin the face Stare through me We'll leave you hollow Hollow, hollow, hollow Wounded, have a loss of feeling So dead, my heart My life has been ruined Lost in an instant Saw red in my eyes The hate in me So consuming The lives we swallow To the front line Mirror's engaged Scope's on me And leaves me hollow Harvest children Harvest children Harvest children Harvest children Harvest children My God, my love, my life My one, my loss, my grave

My heart is beating But the soul has died The body's breathing Beneath catatonic eyes The blood is flowing Set it free for demise I've lost my balance But God knows I tried I don't want to be here anymore In scarlet letters Carved into what once was me, once was yours, no more (No more) An uphill battle I failed to climb I left it all now And I don't mind Betrayed and broken Consumed by the lies Farewell to you all I'll be fine, goodbye I don't want to be here anymore In scarlet letters Carved into what once was me Once was yours, no more I don't want to be here anymore The scarlet letter Torn in two, a piece of me The peace in you, no more Do you believe in loss? Do you believe in faith? Do you believe in death? Now that I'm gone Forsaken me, ashes to dust Just let me lie Lay me to rest, I've done my best But lost my sight Turning my back, leave me alone Let spirit rise Knives in my back, all hope is lost Say goodbye I don't want to be here anymore In scarlet letters Got to do what once was me Once was yours, no more I don't want to be here anymore I don't want to be here anymore The scarlet letters Carved into what once was me Once was yours, no more

In this hole that is me The dead are rolling over In this hole thickening Dirt shoveled over shoulders I feel it in me so overwhelmed Oh, this pressured center rising My life overturned, unfair the despair All these scars keep ripping open Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? In this hole that is me A life that's growing feeble In this hole so limiting The sun has set all darkens Buried underneath Hands slip off the wheel Internal path way to contention Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? Are you happy Are you happy Are you feeling happy? In this hole that is me Left with a heart exhausted What's my release, what sets me free? Do you pull me up just to push me down again? Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? Peel me from the skin Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy? Now that I'm lost left with nothing Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy?

What have I done? Where have I come from? When I burnt the backs With the sun through a glass Did I seal the loss That's become me? Feeling undone What have I become? When I turned my back on you I turned my back on myself And became this machine Thoughtlessness Selfishness Hopelessness Arrogant I feel it on the inside Twisting and contorting Memory has shaped me once again Still feel you on the inside Biting through and stinging Will I ever forget to remember? Shadows in the sun Filter through us Still wrestle the demons That arrested me as a child Confession rejected We grow up To give up People step on the cracks For wounds owed paid back Through the words of surrender Emptiness Loneliness Listlessness Worthless I feel it on the inside Twisting and contorting Memory has shaped me once again Still feel you on the inside Biting through and stinging Will I ever forget to remember? Can you save me? From myself From these memories Can you save me? From myself From these memories Surrender To the shadows Haunting inside Bleed through you Surrender to the secrets...inside Lies within you I feel it on the inside Twisting and contorting Memory has shaped me once again Still feel you on the inside Biting through and stinging Will I ever forget to remember? Can't feel you on the inside Set down the bag and left it Lost memory has left me One again Open up the inside Admission for the cleansing Now that I've forgotten to remember Surrender To the shadows Haunting inside Bleed through you

When passion's lost and all the trust is gone Way too far for way too long Children crying, cast out and neglected Only in a world so cold, only in a world this cold Hold the hand of your best friend, look into their eyes Then watch them drift away Some might say, We've done the wrong things For way too long, for way too long Fever inside the storm, so I'm turning away Away from the game, away from the storm It's like through mending the worlds of us Keep your thorn 'cuz I'm running away Away from the games, away from the space The circumstances of a world so cold Burning whispers remind me of the days I was left alone in a world this cold Guilty of the same things reveled by the cause I've left alone in a world so cold Fever inside the storm, so I'm turning away Away from the game, away from the storm It's like through mending the worlds of us Keep your thorn 'cuz I'm running away Away from the games, away from the space The circumstances of a world so cold I'm flying, I'm flying away Away from the games, away from the flames The circumstances of a world so cold Why does everyone feel like my enemy?

Cold seems crippling Lame meander through corridors Aroma’s thick with age Mark off the day Reflections of my life are fading Pull me out of body, don’t want it, don’t want in Feeble, frail, and rotting, descending I’m lost in structure that’s collapsing, descending Cast into maker, take the body, don’t want it, it wants me I just want to run around Fly kites, wrestle, jump and play Swim through waves that crash to shore Memories in me, cocooned in misery Past has found its place Salvation is no more Will God accept my peace? Bleach will pardon me Reflections of my life are fading Pull me out of body, don’t want it, don’t want in Feeble, frail, and rotting, descending I’m lost in structure that’s collapsing, don’t want it Cast into maker, take the body, don’t want it, it wants me I'm sick and tired Of embracing reflections of past time Receive me or cast me away God, please take me away Resistance futile, suicidal ideas I will crucify my own being Satisfy selfish needs, fuck the deities Justify my own right to what's waiting for me On the other side The time has come Lock and load I'm coming, I'm coming I'm coming, I'm coming I'm coming I'm coming home I just want to run around Fly kites, wrestle, jump and play Swim through waves that crash to shore Memories in me, cocooned in misery The darkness overcomes Soul soars to the other plane Existence past the door I sail through purgatory's bay I asked a god for poison, cradle me Sown to my dreams, souls searching Death blossoms where clouds lie over me Held in God's hands, death blooming Dark for fear of failure An inner gloom as wide as an eye and fermenting Roiling hate Death grip in my veins Unveiling rancid petals Flowering forth foul nectar The space between a blink and a tear Death blooms
