It feels so wrong stuck down in the web we weave Tear apart the way we are and do it so well Our peace of mind left in pieces Holding your head in hands and the world's watching today Feeling like an empty room Nothing ever fits, but I will find my way Resume Who am I staring at? All I've wanted and more, living beyond the door Right behind the front door Painting the patterns I've become within my eyes Murals fade, but lessons they sow And as the paths we wandеr have shown, our hearts will grow Beauty wadеs within the sound soul I've said so long to sanity Picked apart the way I am, but living to tell The surgery of mending pieces is hanging over me and the world's watching today Yeah, this is still life Make it mine I used to do it all the time Dust off your shoulders through it Yeah, this is still life Make it mine I used to do it all the time Sick of living low I've gotta let the feeling go Painting the patterns I've become within my eyes Murals fade, but lessons they sow And as the paths we wander have shown, our hearts will grow Beauty wades within the sound soul Yeah, this is still life Make it mine I used to do it all the time Dust off your shoulders through it Yeah, this is still life Make it mine I used to do it all the time Sick of living low I've gotta pick me off the floor Stay in the upright One second, one day, one step Just keep moving One step, keep moving Keep your head up high One second, one day, one step You're not on your own Not on your own I'm feeling like an empty room No, nothing ever fits, but I will find my way Resume I will find my way to resume Who am I staring at? All I've wanted and more, living beyond the door Right behind the front door Must I lay here as a product of the world I never leave? I can see My life is crashing down It's been a while My mind is racing for a million miles The machine is turning me Just imagine the damage that's done When you fly with wax wings in the sun The past is present, I'm not in denial It's holding on like it's an infant child The machines are, the machines are turning me (The machines are turning me) The past is present, I'm not in denial It's holding on like it's an infant child The machines are, the machines are turning me The machines are, the machines are turning me The machines are turning me

I saw all the flaws Felt all the wrongs Bowing down Pedestal with no god Owing to myself, but a fraud Always a hazard in recall Not just for the show Not a dead ego I'm still binging all the lows Binging all the lows Sunny day, but I can’t shake this feeling Never mind what others fucking say Am I the monster in the mirror When the darkest clouds hang overhead? Fucking coward Do you lack the confidence? Coward I'll bleed and repent Guilty, guilty cunt Guilty, guilty, guilty cunt Guilty, guilty faker Guilty, guilty cunt Guilty, guilty, guilty cunt Guilty, guilty faker Blind lead the blind Eye for an eye Why can't we fall in line with the status high? Hide in the jail as we cower Hands are bound Malicious sound Holding the profound Awake on my own Wilting Dead in the flower Garden drowned by the showers Sunny day, but I can’t shake this feeling (I'm feeling fucking hate) Never mind what others fucking say Am I the monster in the mirror When the darkest clouds hang overhead? You coward How we cower Our body is not a haven, it's a prison Our body is not a haven, it's a prison This body is not a sanctuary Our body is not a haven, it's a fucking prison This body is not a sanctuary This mirror, shattered image of me This body is not a sanctuary This mirror, shattered vision of me Fuck your sanctuary Fuck your haven Fuck your sanctuary Fuck your sanctuary Fuck your haven Fuck your sanctuary

Love, loss, light circling everybody It gets hazy as the years begin to breathe Step back in the memory Relive a parody of me He gets hazy Move along in disbelief We're not the people we once were and we've moved on seeking out answers (Answers) Viewing the past self like he's only a friend of mine The world is turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow Leave clues hanging from the wall See him walking down the hall Piecing the puzzle undone and its like a movie that replays, but he can't find that boy inside Passing through all the hues Blue vibe like it's a funeral, funeral (For somebody) Close the coffin of his mind He was only a friend of mine Where does he go and is he just a silhouette? What do we know? What little of him do we know? Just a part of who we were still in the light The world is turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow (Afterglow) It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake (Left in our wake) The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow (Afterglow, afterglow) To purge the cells of someone else We shed our past down the wishing well Your seven years have come and gone so well To purge the cells of someone else We shed our past down the wishing well Your seven years have come and gone so well The world keeps turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow

Falling pieces Wide awake (Incessant murderer) Murderer, the life you take Can you feel it? Puzzle reset Now I remember, but I'll soon forget When the only emanation flowing in and around you Is a wall of limitation, desperation steps out into the light Patience like medicine I'll break the mold and settle into my (Ocean mind) Ocean mind Feel the warmth as we fill our lungs Remove the world and all that's become Breathe out the past, and presently, your heart is open You're as persistent as a dying star Playing the part of who you are, who you are Sulk alone Take it home Yeah, the time means nothing to me Salt the wound Make it bloom The body suffers through it Patients take medicine, but I'll break the mold and settle into my ocean mind Feel the warmth as it fills our lungs Remove the world and all that's become Breathe out the past, and presently, your heart is open Feel the warmth as it fills our lungs Remove the world and all that's become Breathe out the past, and presently, your heart is open This whole relationship between me and my life has thrown me in hesitation Lock down Gaslight situation My soul is down, it's not right Learning when the heart is open Turn mind into an ocean So, take space ‘cause you're not alone It's the same place as it was before On roads unknown Your heart is open Take space ‘cause you're not alone (Not alone) It's the same place as it was before On roads unknown Your heart is open Feel the warmth as we fill our lungs Remove the world and all that's become Breathe out the past, and presently, your heart is open Take space ‘cause you're not alone It's the same place as it was before On roads unknown Your heart is open Take space ‘cause you're not alone It's the same place as it was before On roads unknown Your heart is open

Daylight fading Desolate skyline Sun retreating giving way to dusk Canvas sinking to darkness Flickering are candles in the wind Following behind the trail of the living to the feeding ground All are one and the pulsing of a heart keeps an eternal bound Open your veins Open your veins Hook up the line It's feeding time Open the veins Drink of the body Blood like wine Bow low, bow low The children of the blood glow for the one eternal Pray now, lest the darkness fall upon our rite, to the one eternal Peering in the night Servants Everybody on the lane coddled in peace The body had to cease Soar below your sky No wind below his dead wings To the pale one, this life, we owe Whispers trail in the breeze Ignore the sound, though malicious it seems Bow low, bow low The children of the blood glow for the one eternal Pray now, lest the darkness fall upon our rite, to the one eternal Oh the beauty abound Bow low before the pale one Pray now, lest the darkness fall upon our rite, to the one eternal Interference howls in the dead of night The dead of night Remnants of an Elden order circling Hold tight Our innocence betrays our safety The reality of our destruction reaching for our sanity Solidarity besieged The remnants of an Elden order servicing their vanity (Vanity) Weep as the darkness surrounds Silent, in the moonlight, as she goes The air is stale as he lingers on his own As he lingers on his own Harboring the foresight, with the teeth drawn A commanding shadow pushes onward toward the throne Draining borrowed blood and roaring loud as thunder Nails tearing through the pale The preservation of a life gone Blood rains heavy in her trail Mirrored image The child of coddled demeanor A family torn Carry on by his side Wide in the middle Terrorize The hunger showing teeth Severing mortality The hunger grows inside Measuring a quarter in size He moves swiftly into the night So stay low, stay low The fury of the stealth-blow Drain the blood and the cries out to terrorize (See it in their eyes) The pleasure of the hunt is recognized Painting the town rose red beneath his feet Red upon his face For the taste For the vengeance Deemed the savior eternally Painting the town rose red beneath his feet Red upon his face For the taste For the vengeance Deemed the savior eternally Bow low, bow low The children of the blood glow for the one eternal Pray now, lest the darkness fall upon our rite, to the one eternal Oh the beauty abound Bow low before the pale one Pray now, lest the darkness fall upon our rite, to the one eternal Servants Everybody on the street living in peace They rid it of disease Open up your veins Hook up the line Drink of the body Blood like wine Blood like wine Open, open your veins Drink of the body Blood like wine Son of darkness, feed in the dead of night

Taking a look Your past is the weight that takes hold of your brain Same as before The shock ripping through It all hits the floor You fear it So feel it Feel the apparition selling me lies He'll eclipse the beacon holding light A bleeding contradiction We'll never harmonize, you and I The void shall be your way Another trigger in mind Because it says so, says so Cut out the perilous lies Beyond the deathblow we go The past position was wearing me down But this preservation's newly found The contradiction was bleeding mе dry You and I will never harmonize Nothing lasts forеver And thank God it doesn't Drifting towards the center of serenity The dark of night has given way And thank fucking God it did Whether eternally, or just a moment Bask in the light Another trigger in mind Because it says so, says so Cut out the perilous lies Beyond the deathblow we go Another trigger in mind Because it says so, says so Cut out the perilous lies Because it says so, says so Beyond the deathblow we go You fear it, so feel it! Nothing lasts forever so you've gotta make it right Drifting towards the center You've gotta remember This is a moment divine A silent wave For just a moment in time The patterns are aligning now The climb to bask in the light They know it never mattered what they had known They know that part of him that shines like so They know it never mattered what they had known They know that part of me that shines like gold The curtain drops closed I don't wanna go Pardon me, the past is over The curtain drops closed I don't wanna go Rest the soul, shine like gold They know it never mattered what they had known They know that part of him that shines like gold (You're shining and it shows) They know (You're shining and it shows) It never mattered what they had known (You're shining and it shows) They know, yeah… Rest the soul, shine like gold
