Yes, everyone seems to be asleep Hey look, you didn't even notice Couldn't even tell Just when it started... happening Maybe just as well After all, everything is getting unfamiliar now Trajectory in decline And we become obsolete A frame at a time I'm locked inside here Have to stay With people who aren't here All the way Pictures and faces On display With people who aren't here All the way (all the way) All the way (all the way) All the way (all the way) It is coming, and you didn't even notice, yeah you didn't even notice... (you were missing) I am leaving because I can't recognize who I have been You go on spoiling It's happening Without me you didn't even notice Of course it's been happening all along Permanent intervals As you become obsolete Who are you? Oh, this place... I can't concentrate But I know I can't trust myself Dear world, I can hardly recognize you anymore And yet I remain certain there is an answer in you I feel like I have lived so long Sometimes run out of things to try to do I can't concentrate What about… I begin to go through another that we have been I have been entirely patient No, no, not this time I'm locked inside here Have to stay With people who aren't here All the way Pictures and faces On display With people who aren't here All the way (all the way) All the way (all the way) All the way (all the way) Yes, everyone seems to be asleep

You dig in places til your fingers bleed Spread the infection where you spill your seed I can't remember what she came here for I can't remember much of anything anymore She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away A little mouth opened up inside Yeah, I was watching on the day she died We keep licking while the skin turns black Cut along the length, but you can't get the feeling back She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away She's gone, she's gone, she's gone away

Maybe that was somebody else Maybe I was somebody else I'm sorry, for what it's worth, if that means anything anymore I think there's something just wrong with me I have been wondering, when, when did you know? You know, really know? No no no, I don't think that's going to happen here You missed all that on the way out Remember, I don't want to remember anymore Maybe I was somebody else? Just go back to the idea of me Just go back to the idea of me Just go back to the idea of me Just— (Wait!) None of this is happening (Wake!) None of this is happening (Breathe!) None of this is happening (Believe!) None of this is happening Hey, you tell yourself! Oh and If I start to tell you anything, please don't pay attention That's not really me in there, I would never do that Just go back to the idea of me Go back to that idea Can you even hear me over here? Can't you feel it happening? Everything absorbing liquid Twitching, forming something terrible The sores are gone And you can hardly tell now but There was someone else who isn't here anymore (Wait!) None of this is happening (Wake!) None of this is happening (Breathe!) None of this is happening (Believe!) None of this is happening Hey, you tell yourself! (Wait!) None of this is happening (Wake!) None of this is happening (Breathe!) None of this is happening (Believe!) None of this is happening Hey, you tell yourself! (Wait!) None of this is happening (Wake!) None of this is happening (Breathe!) None of this is happening (Believe!) None of this is happening Hey, you tell yourself! (Wait!) None of this is happening (Wake!) None of this is happening (Breathe!) None of this is happening (Believe!) None of this is happening Hey, you tell yourself! Hey, can you hear? (Can you hear?) It gets (it gets) so lonely in here Hey, can you hear? (Can you hear?) It gets (it gets) so lonely in here

I'm going back Of course I am As if I ever had a choice Back to what I always knew I was On the inside Back to what I really am Look at this pathetic place I made With little bits of sticks and hair And anything I found along the way And tell yourself, you know? You're not really what you know you are You know? Of course you do I think I may have even listened to you I think I may have even listened to you At the height of my demise (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire And oh my god, I missed you, it's been so long And I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline For now I know, now I know, now I know for certain Now I know for certain Oh, burn motherfucker! Carry the carcass and throw it on Pull up a chair and watch The flies come roaring out And will surround the entire world And blacken out the sky and every last one of you Like a plague of locusts Like an exit Like an end Like an end Like an end Like the end (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and (Breathe, breathe, breathe) Break through the surface and I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire I am forgiven I am free I am a field on fire I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore It's getting hard to know which side is a dream
