Welcome to my mind It’s a scary place Filled with creatures and Things with no face Keep your hands inside The ride at all times I’m sure you’re fond of them Don’t want to lose a limb Skies are turning gray Things aren’t looking up My mind’s a tangled mess I can’t get out of this My imagination It’s my enemy It keeps me seeing things I don’t want to see Can you see it there The line between worlds One brighter than daylight The other dark as night Please follow the path Don’t take any detours You might get dragged down too Don’t get dragged down too Skies are turning gray Things aren’t looking up My mind’s a tangled mess I can’t get out of this My imagination It’s my enemy It keeps on seeing things I don’t want to see Get me out Get me out Get me out Get me out I can’t take this Clash of good and bad It’s not all in my mind I’m going crazy Skies are turning gray Things aren’t looking up My mind’s a tangled mess I can’t get out of this My imagination It’s my enemy It keeps on seeing things I don’t want to see

One brighter than daylight The other dark as night Please follow the path Don’t take any detours You might get dragged down too Don’t get dragged down too There’s a million other things that could take you out And I know that you’re worried that there is no way out But I promise you that I installed an escape route Exit buddy, check, please don’t twist and shout Skies are turning gray Things aren’t looking up My mind’s a tangled mess I can’t get out of this My imagination It’s my enemy It keeps me seeing things I don’t want to see Skies are turning gray Things aren’t looking up My mind’s a tangled mess I can’t get out of this My imagination It’s my enemy It keeps me seeing things I don’t want to see Which way, that way, or was it straight down? Right way, wrong way, I’m just not myself, hey It’s a rollercoaster, a freaky mad collage You’ve stepped into the freakshow baby, come into the real mirage Let me see your ticket, you can sit where you like Watch out for the ghouls, they really like to bite Don’t mind the masks, they keep the monsters hidden Curiousity or fear—in your eyes, which glistens?

I see all these monsters They’re running right for me I don’t think I can get out There’s nothing else to do I guess I’ll go and hide In the corner of the room Cowering, afraid Missing my nightlight They said I’m way too old Escaped from my closet, Not trapped under my bed I don’t think they can see me I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I thought I was safe I thought this was safe My safe space My safe space I see the escape I see the escape But I’m here to stay In my safe place My safe space My safe space My safe space My safe space It’s been like this for years But they never got free And still they threatened me I could hear them in my sleep These insecurities Nobody will believe me They still live in fear of The light that’s inside me But the battery’s running low As fear swells inside me I have to remind me It’s just until the rooster crows I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I thought I was safe I thought this was safe My safe space My safe space I see the escape I see the escape But I’m here to stay In my safe place My safe space My safe space My safe space My safe space I’m trapped in (the walls) I’m stuck in (the shadows) They leave their stains, they leave their stains God help me (pull me out) I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my I’m trapped in my Safe space I thought I was safe I thought this was safe My safe space My safe space I see the escape I see the escape But I’m here to stay In my safe place My safe space My safe space My safe space My safe space

Don’t like the mirror It lies to my face The face I wish was shards Laying across the floor Don’t like the scale It tells too much truth Of everything’s excess— Don’t allow access Don’t take my picture It adds ten pounds You can see my valleys and you can see my hills Go ahead without me, I’ll stay inside There isn’t much to do here but I guess I’ll survive I can hear it, I can hear it The obsession I can hear it, I can hear it The pressure of perfection For that photoshop working on my look Got that makeup covering my whole face You can’t tell me I look beautiful When the magazines tell me otherwise You can’t tell me I’m perfect the way I am Because perfection is the biggest lie God made me like this And He looked at me He called me perfect Even with all my schemes But here I am Backing up from that This flesh doesn’t Want to believe This world has got Me in a bind It says I won’t Be satisfied Pucker up my lips Give myself away Believe in nothing They say there’s no point to pray I can hear it, I can hear it The obsession I can hear it, I can hear it The pressure of perfection For that photoshop working on my look Got that makeup covering my whole face You can’t tell me I look beautiful When the magazines tell me otherwise You can’t tell me I’m perfect the way I am Because perfection is the biggest lie Society expects us to be obedient And bow down to its expectations To bathe in our ignorance and ignore God’s voice Killing our consciences with our pure selfishness We watch the hand that’s waving right in front of us Missing the trick—their slight of hand TV is lying and too blue for common sense In the future all that will be red is my blood that’s shed I can hear it, I can hear it The obsession I can hear it, I can hear it The pressure of perfection For that photoshop working on my look Got that makeup covering my whole face You can’t tell me I look beautiful When the magazines tell me otherwise You can’t tell me I’m perfect the way I am Because perfection is the biggest lie

Low 04:06
I can’t be proud of who I am Cuz who I am is such a mess I’m the daughter of a king yet I act like a thief Which frog is a prince, this one, I guess I see the mountains and want to climb them Thinking everything will be fine then But there’s always a mountain further down the road And I may be a princess but that toad’s just a toad This life is the best one I could ever ask for But still I search for windows and doors My chains should be gone but I feel them tug As if I’m still hooked on its drug I heard it’s hard to quit cold-turkey Thank the Lord for this thing called mercy I’ve fallen deep into this trap, Lord Help me out ‘fore they use me as a dart board Now that I’m here, I feel As if there’s nothing left God, get me out of here I’m sinking into my chest There’s a cavity in me It’s become so empty They’ve got me feeling so Low Be in the world and not of it I try to live right above it Christian tattooed on my heart My eyes, my fists, my feet, my tongue My actions don’t give me away Unless of course I’m in Your house Then I act like I belong to day But by nightfall, the fire for you is doused I can’t pretend like I’m perfect I can’t fake that for my family Then turn right around broken Because none of them can see right through me It’s like there’s red and white painted on my body The center of the target placed on my heart People poke at me with their horns and fists Smiling because they know I’ll resist Now that I’m here, I feel As if there’s nothing left God, get me out of here I’m sinking into my chest There’s a cavity in me It’s become so empty They’ve got me feeling so Low I’d chosen to be blind to everything in my mind I fight it with all I’ve got I’m starting to lose my mind The photographs don’t capture me The want of fame has been deceased I slaughtered it with my two hands I slaughtered me with my two hands Now that I’m here, I feel As if there’s nothing left God, get me out of here I’m sinking into my chest There’s a cavity in me It’s become so empty They’ve got me feeling so Low

Endure 05:09
Sitting alone in my own apartment Wishing someone would knock on my door Nothing can describe this loneliness I push it away, I must endure So many things beating up my backbone It’s broken and sore, I don’t wanna stand These memories keep haunting me Crushing my sternum so I can’t breathe I’m fading I can’t see me. I can’t see me. Don’t run away I’m so afraid. I’m so afraid. I’m singing Na na nanana na nana na Na na nanana na nana na Don’t let me fall Everybody’s cast me out Saying that I’m beyond help The rain keeps pouring and I feel it soaking me And sometimes I long for eternal sleep I’m fading I can’t see me. I can’t see me. Don’t run away I’m so afraid. I’m so afraid. I’m singing Na na nanana na nana na Na na nanana na nana na Don’t let me fall I’m trying to trust and I’m trying to love But my broken heart is not enough Don’t shove me into someone else’s hands I know I’m here cuz God’s got a plan I’m fading I can’t see me. I can’t see me. Don’t run away I’m so afraid. I’m so afraid. I’m singing Na na nanana na nana na Na na nanana na nana na Don’t let me fall

There’s a world that Only I know It’s filled with secrets Scratches on the walls Their ears are closed and Their backs are turned There’s no one here To wipe my tears Cold and alone Sitting on my floor Wood biting into My knobby ankles The fun echoes, Drifting up the stairs Wraps around me But it doesn’t warm my chills Call me extreme, call me a freak There’s so much more behind my screams I’m crying out can you hear me I’m drowning, please don’t set me free There’s nothing you can say to me Those pills won’t help, won’t be myself Not too far gone, you won’t believe I’m drowning, please don’t set me free Why does everyone Worry so much Pushing me around As if that’ll help All I want is A shoulder One to lean on Someone to understand Neon and black They wage a war As my heart thumps To the rhythm of the storm I’ll stomp real loud Scream my lungs out Just hear my voice That’s all I need Call me extreme, call me a freak There’s so much more behind my screams I’m crying out can you hear me I’m drowning, please don’t set me free There’s nothing you can say to me Those pills won’t help, won’t be myself Not too far gone, you won’t believe I’m drowning, please don’t set me free I know you hear me I know you see me I warned you about this side of me So why are you just now leaving? I know you hear me Don’t make this worse for me I warned you about this side of me So why are you just now leaving? Call me extreme, call me a freak There’s so much more behind my screams I’m crying out can you hear me I’m drowning, please don’t set me free There’s nothing you can say to me Those pills won’t help, won’t be myself Not too far gone, you won’t believe I’m drowning, please don’t set me free

They say scars tell many stories But what do mine tell The bruises create roses My veins are their stems Blight stains half my mind, Splitting it in two It’s like a rash, disease And it’s overcoming me Nah, nah, Don’t cry a tear, no Not allowed to cry, not allowed to weep, so Nah, nah, don’t cry a tear, no Depression’s in your mind, so just figure how to deal With the pain you can’t get rid of With the blame you can’t get rid of You’re stronger than this, stronger than this Because I measure strength in tears, yeah Paint drips from the petals Thorns press into my paper-thin skin A scream rips through me like claws Venom in every word Knots in my jaw and knots in my throat My shiner’s glued my eye shut Everything’s blurry, everything’s blurry My vision is tainted red Nah, nah, Don’t cry a tear, no Not allowed to cry, not allowed to weep, so Nah, nah, don’t cry a tear, no Depression’s in your mind, so just figure how to deal With the pain you can’t get rid of With the blame you can’t get rid of You’re stronger than this, stronger than this Because I measure strength in tears, yeah But the truth is no one can see me No one can hear what I say I’m on the opposite side of the world’s view I’m forced into agonizing silence All that’s in my way Is what’s in front of me This society Shoved me down the drain All that’s in my way Is what’s in front of me This society Shoved me down the drain Nah, nah, Don’t cry a tear, no Not allowed to cry, not allowed to weep, so Nah, nah, don’t cry a tear, no Depression’s in your mind, so just figure how to deal With the pain you can’t get rid of With the blame you can’t get rid of You’re stronger than this, stronger than this, Because I measure strength in tears, yeah All that’s in my way Is what’s in front of me This society Shoved me down the drain

Maybe this time it won’t hurt so bad My heart’s on the table, hands above my head Everyone keeps saying, this is for the best But I’m a boomerang. I can’t help but come back. When will I learn When will I return If this is what you want, then you have got to let me go If this is where we part, then I am ready to let The door close Come with me. So tempting. The cuts wounds you left in me, I can feel them start to bleed In a secret garden, you hide away Indestructible lock but there is no key, you forgot to give it to me When will I learn When will I return If this is what you want, then you have got to let me go If this is where we part, then I am ready to let The door close Let it close Let the door slam Let it disappear from my world Let the door close Let it close Let it slam shut Let it go Let it close Let it close Let it, let it, let it close Yeah When will I learn When will I return If this is what you want, then you have got to let me go If this is where we part, then I am ready to let When will I learn When will I return If this is what you want, then you have got to let me go If this is where we part, then I am ready to let The door close

Elbow Room 03:39
Anger’s got a hold on me Its had its way, but it suffocating I’m being dragged down by my own sin Turning to ruins from within I’ve tried so hard but it won’t let go How did I lose all my self-control? It’s somehow mended to who I am— It’s so powerful, everything else is jammed Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room The sky won’t fall, your heart won’t quit Let me be selfish a bit Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room The embers seem to turn to flames Doesn’t take much to cast the blame Restless from the screaming voice It makes it seem like I’ve got no choice I’ve tried so hard but it won’t let go How did I lose all my self-control? I can be angry and not sin But the terrible thoughts still creep in Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room The sky won’t fall, your heart won’t quit Let me be selfish a bit Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room I’m just a shadow passing through you The clouds following close behind me Don’t speak or I might snap like a cynic Every smile my way returned with a grimace I’ve tried so hard but it won’t let go How did I lose all my self-control? Am I so angry because I suppress it beneath happiness, Or is there something big I’m missing through my busyness? Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room The sky won’t fall, your heart won’t quit Let me be selfish a bit Give me a little bit, little bit Little bit of elbow room

Blight 04:37
The streets are full, I’ve got no luck I can’t find you, I’ve lost my way The faces blur, it’s a nightmare I still need you no matter what I say The rain pours down, everyone runs But here I am still storming through it I want to say I’m infected You’re in my mind and I can’t get you out And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it I see you, you’re so composed And look at me, my heart’s in ruins The blight is, is covering me And yet it’s my fault in the first place We don’t match, and yet we fit so good I don’t understand how this even works I’m a drama queen, but you’re the traitor The king’s gotta take care of his love And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it Although sometimes it doesn’t hurt Sometimes it’s me who overreacts I can’t stop coming back to you You hold my heart in your hands And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it And I keep returning As if I like the pain, yeah Can’t keep my attention from you Oh, you know I like it, you know I like it

All I Need 03:33
Sound the alarm I’m getting out I’ve decided to break free My mind is fine I’m not too weak It hasn’t killed me yet I’ve come too far To back up now Shut the prison door and don’t let me back in The monster lives Beneath my skin It’s part of me, but I can handle it There’s a world out there that I have never seen All because I’m in my own way God, give me strength to push on my own God, give me strength to fight against the dark God, give me strength to conquer all my guilt God, please, all I need is strength Complexity Difficulty They both increase as I try to leave I see the door It’s bolted shut Looks like I’ll have to fight And as I turn to face the monster that I once knew Like an animal that I once called my own It snarls and rears its ugly head toward me I underestimated how difficult this could be God, give me strength to push on my own God, give me strength to fight against the dark God, give me strength to conquer all my guilt God, please, all I need is strength Man verses self, you can't get any better than this This is one for the ages, one you don’t want to miss Wanna know how I got these lovely scars? Well sit right down, don’t know how lucky you are. My mind is a playground enshrouded in doubt My tongue is a weapon that I’m still figuring out There’s nothing I’d like more than to tell you I’m fine But I know I’ll be fighting this war my whole life God, give me strength to push on my own God, give me strength to fight against the dark God, give me strength to conquer all my guilt God, please, all I need is strength

Grim Reaper 03:10
I’ll march with one foot in front of the other Don’t worry about it, I’ve got you covered The enemy’s aiming directly at our hearts Our forces are strong if we don’t get spilt apart I feel you slipping, you’re drifting away But He has commanded for us to obey Still, you refuse, you turn your back away You join the enemy to see the next day Eyes are drawn down to Earth Our images are falling Burning up with firepower The Grim Reaper’s calling Lightning strikes against the ground Debris falling all around And yet we still betray ourselves Saying that we don’t need help But I see you stalling The Grim Reaper’s calling A world war’s inside you, it’s eating you up You punch and you claw and you wish for some luck But the enemy tells you that you should give up As you dig your grave further, down in the dirt Don’t be afraid to believe with your heart That He’s always with you, He was from the start All of this is is a molehill, not a tall mountain And you won’t see past it if you don’t give in Eyes are drawn down to Earth Our images are falling Burning up with firepower The Grim Reaper’s calling Lightning strikes against the ground Debris falling all around And yet we still betray ourselves Saying that we don’t need help But I see you stalling The Grim Reaper’s calling Don’t touch me, you can't touch me The world will not leave a stain on me The enemy might be strong right now, but the final battle will snuff it out There’s nothing I can do right now Honestly, I can't save myself But this battle ain’t null and void and it’s something none of us can avoid If you’re scared of death, you’re out of time, Their army’s aiming across the line Forget your sight, forget your past how much longer do you think you’ll last? Find your knees, set them down, exchange this world for a crown. So watch your back, peel your eyes cuz a God like that is hard to find Eyes are drawn down to Earth Our images are falling Burning up with firepower The Grim Reaper’s calling Lightning strikes against the ground Debris falling all around And yet we still betray ourselves Saying that we don’t need help But I see you stalling The Grim Reaper’s calling Eyes are drawn down to Earth Our images are falling Burning up with firepower The Grim Reaper’s calling Lightning strikes against the ground Debris falling all around And yet we still betray ourselves Saying that we don’t need help But I see you stalling The Grim Reaper’s calling

Walls 03:54
There’s a whisper in the trees There’s a silence in the streets Heat rises but chills seep Like ink into my fragile bones There’s something ominous Lurking in corners Smiling wide and beckoning forth Letting the shadows stain all We build walls to keep us safe We back down to fight another day We build walls to keep us safe To keep us, to keep us safe We back down to fight another day There’s a whisper in the trees There’s a silence in the streets Heat rises but chills seep Like ink into my fragile bones There’s something ominous Lurking in corners Smiling wide and beckoning forth Letting the shadows stain all We build walls to keep us safe (There’s a whisper in the trees) We back down to fight another day (There’s a silence in the streets) We build walls to keep us safe (Heat rises but chills seep) We back down to fight another day (Like ink into my fragile bones) There’s something ominous Lurking in corners Smiling wide and beckoning forth Letting the shadows stain all Our nightmare’s here We’re split in two Monsters rise They cut right through They come from us And we give in The darkness calls And we all fall Two, three, four Our nightmare’s here We’re split in two Monsters rise They cut right through They come from us And we give in The darkness calls And we all fall We build walls to keep us safe We back down to fight another day We build walls to keep us safe We back down to fight another day

Ken 06:15
It seems as through I can’t escape The likeness we both resonate At first I thought it was cool It was great that I could relate And then things darkened and the clouds rolled in A new sense of reality has developed within I’ll look ahead and see my own path But they’re the same as yours. They’re the same as yours Again and again I am reminded of who I am And it’s shattering, the character I parallel Time again and through and through I am reminded that I am a real-life you To go so far for the people I love To take on the burden and push, push away On and on, and through and through I am reminded that I am the real-life you I’m sad. That, I can admit I’ve learned so much from watching you live It’s the reason I speak about what’s in my head But still I disassociate from them I can’t help but be angry I want to cry till I bleed I don’t know if this reflection of you is a good thing Or if it’s destroying the very fabric of my being I feel so cliche because you’re the lead And me saying I’m you in good and in bad But I can’t hide the truth from myself And it terrifies me beyond words So I’ll wear MY mask until I can show my face Because I thought it was shifting but wasn’t right It turns out I’ve not changed at all And I’m ashamed because I’m not strong enough to stop my fall Again and again I am reminded of who I am, And it’s shattering, the character I parallel. Time again and through and through I am reminded that I am a real-life you To go so far for the people I love To take on the burden and push, push away On and on, and through and through I am reminded that I am the real-life you Why did you have to tell your story? Why did I have to listen? Maybe my eyes were opened but this burns Every impulse reminds me of you Paint me on a panel and I’ll be your twin Write my words down and you’ll see yours blend We’ll destroy ourselves before anyone else And the tears will fall as we fight with ourselves I’m not gonna pick a fight with you Because you can’t even fight back The world is wrong and we’re all to blame And because of them, this is what we became We’re monsters We walk with a foot in both worlds. Chaos consumes everyone else And we’re swept up in it. Again and again I am reminded of who I am, And it’s shattering, the character I parallel. Time again and through and through I am reminded that I am a real-life you To go so far for the people I love To take on the burden and push, push away On and on, and through and through I am reminded that I am the real-life you I’m not gonna pick a fight with you Because you can’t even fight back The world is wrong and we’re all to blame And because of them, this is what we became

There’s a world that you’ll never see It’s placed right here inside of me It’s a place where I knot a noose And the branch that holds it breaks loose This is not the wonderland I pictured in all my dreams, I I am stuck in a horror film A nightmare I can’t wake up from There’s nothing I can do This is all I have, too My reflection is foggy Do I even want to see What this world’s done to me This humanity I’m dragged down by my sin So much suffering In the midst of it all, Between the masks that I wear There’s a girl slipping down Falling further from God It’s my own doing It’s my own dang fault The enemy’s whispering No more listening There’s nothing I can do This is all I have, too My reflection is foggy Do I even want to see What this world’s done to me This humanity I’m dragged down by my sin So much suffering This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn

Comatose Non-responsive Where were you then? Not beside me Of course you caused Me all this trouble Left me battered As you doubled Took you no time To replace me But then you come back As I was healing Said you’re sorry You promise you’ve changed Say you want me back Never thought you’d crack What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss Do you remember When we used to smile The days were so long and The nights were so cold For a while there, I didn’t think I could Recover But I guess I could What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss Just try me Don’t doubt me Just try me Don’t touch me Just try me It’s in self-defense Just try me I promise I don’t miss Just try me Don’t doubt me Just try me Don’t touch me Just try me I won't miss What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss

I Hold On 02:28
You’re coming at me from all sides, I can’t see I’ve shut my eyes and now I’m blind—you eat me I can’t be ignorant, the world doesn’t work like that I can’t believe that I’m so weak, I’d fall like that My entire life, I’ve reached up toward the light But now I grew up and saw the world—it’s out of sight Got all these doubts running through my mind—it’s killing me It seems like not believing is filled with ease But I know better and I really gotta get a grip My knuckles white as bone as I begin to slip I’ve grown distracted and that was never ever an option From now on, it seems I have to proceed with caution There’s nothing I can do This is all I have, too My reflection is foggy Do I even want to see? What this world’s done to me This humanity I’m dragged down by my sin So much suffering Your screaming makes my ears bleed, I can’t heed Whatever it is that you’re telling me There’s no way I can stand when all you do is push me back All you do is bury me until everything is black There’s a world that you’ll never see It’s placed right here inside of me And every time I knot my noose, the branch I trust, it breaks loose I’m the one who feeds the lies I’m the one who’s paralyzed Thick skin starts with me Yet here I am, cursing a tree. This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn This world is consuming All my hopes and my dreams, yeah White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn Paralyzed and I’m blinded The only light is inside me White knuckles, I hold on Til the dark has been withdrawn This cliff is crumbling My hope is failing With white knuckles, I hold on Screaming till darkness withdraws

Dying Anyway 03:23
In the mirror, I can see What they hate about me My mind is red and their’s are blue, They have a problem with that view The pressure has turned on me I’m crushed with agony I think I’m the one to blame That I should feel so ashamed But now there’s nothing they can do They’ve destroyed my point of view There’s a black hole that’s inside Eating all the good alive There’s nothing left of me I’ve succumb to the disease I really wish I could have stayed But now you watch as I decay Approach me if you want to They’ve silenced me too There’s nothing left to say I’m dying anyway You’re a zombie walking Pulling at my seams You won’t be satisfied until I’m dying alongside you There’s a noose above me They stare they and punch and scream They placed me where they can see The agony When everybody wants my head When I’d gladly hand it over Belly-up and tail is wagging Something’s gotta get packing But now there’s nothing they can do They’ve destroyed my point of view There’s a black hole that’s inside Eating all the good alive There’s nothing left of me I’ve succumb to the disease I really wish I could have stayed But now you watch as I decay Approach me if you want to They’ve silenced me too There’s nothing left to say I’m dying anyway You’re a zombie walking Pulling at my seams You won’t be satisfied until I’m dying alongside you There’s a world that you’ll never see It’s placed right here inside of me And everytime I knot my noose, the branch I trust, it breaks loose I’m the one who feeds the lies I’m the one who’s paralyzed I can’t point the fingers when I know I’m not where the judgement lies The people in this world will always tear me up Just because I don’t sip from their little cup I’ll stand on my own if I have to I’m not at all worried about losing to you I stand on solid ground and light shines on me now And I’ll put my fists up if you’re needing to duke it out I’m releasing my grip on this ledge I turn my back to the world, I make my pledge— the darkness withdraws This cliff is crumbling My hope is failing With white knuckles, I hold on Screaming till darkness withdraws This is the last stand, yeah The end is growing near now My fingers are slipping But the light is returning Approach me if you want to They’ve silenced me too There’s nothing left to say I’m dying anyway You’re a zombie walking Pulling at my seams You won’t be satisfied until I’m dying alongside you
