Lyrics
I’ll try and read your lips but I won’t see words in lies weaved through teeth. Dig a grave big enough for the both of us to fill. Lay me to rest and let me find peace with emptiness.
I force myself to face reflections in my mind, revealing accumulated loneliness inside. A futile attempt at living life again, lay me to rest. I’ve been trying to live despite this discomfort; it cuts through me.
Failing to find anything but discomfort in the act of living. Led through fields of thorns, I have been nothing but a false shepherd to myself. Familiar liars drag me through this hell.
Sentenced to existence in this lethargic state in the hopes that there’ll be nothing left when my memory wastes away.
Life has brought me nothing but pain.
Yearning for my voice, I’ve clawed through my cheeks. Scratch your amends into my skin; they hold no meaning to me. Pull out my teeth and grab hold of my throat. My breath means as little as the words you spoke. With no means to hold on to your memory, will I ever learn to trust the things I see? I’ll attempt to make do with the hand I’ve been dealt. Forever double-crossing myself.
Deceitful words have been a catalyst to decay, my name is set in my past mistakes. Cut through my tongue, feed me nothing but lies. I’ll choke on blood, mumble goodbye.
Cut your amends into my skin. This opprobrium has forced my heartbeat to grow weak. Smile through gritted teeth. Misery; encompass me.
I’ll make a noose with my own hands; conveyor to my fucking end.
