[Verse 1]
And so, I dread nightly
Uponeth these waters
I tread lightly
Despite the fact that I just might fall through
The slightly top layer
To my deep abyss
With a wish and prayer
A god and myth
I could and I would
But that's ludicrous
It took a whole damn universe to put me through this
Now the odds are stacked and bets are placed
My head's rivers running laps in a sanity race
Out of body observation
Tryin' to follow the trace
Of the real
But I feel that earth's vanity pace
Makes it hard to keep up
So we must
Destruct
To free up, the only thing left that can relieve us but…
[Chorus]
Once your dam brain bursts
And the water has nowhere to go;
Can your mind handle the worst
Knowing if you do
Something worse will show?
[Verse 2]
As my spirit just makes gla** shatter
Feel my thoughts go splatter
Psychopath, digest Ex until I'm lackin' half my brain matter
Matter of fact
When the panic attack
There ain't a surface with a purpose that could handle this crap
On my path and my fruitless quest to save the world
I've found, all we truly are is one man or one girl
In this swirl of undecided chaos;
I revel in
Can see the devil in the eyes of those who fake benevolence
And ever since, my twisted mind's been on a trip to find peace
Found confound within these lines
Because they make time cease
To exist is a difficult tryst to get the gist of
Within it, just a minute on an infinite list of
Points on a time line ‘til time plants it's d**h kiss
Bliss one minute, the next you're getting crossed off the list
Points on a time line ‘til time plants it's d**h kiss
Bliss one minute, the next I'm getting crossed off the list
It's like this…
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
In the name of self-destruction
Human combustion
Ruthless seduction
Lustin' or bust
What the f** then?
Has f**ed the function
Of what's embedded in my head
Though I dread it
Steady to it, I be clutchin'
White knuckles bare
My grips exhausted
f** the fairness!
Too much too careless, share this
And my breath is frosted;
Frozen in time and space
Like the words we've left unspoken;
Strummed open heart strings
There's somethin' sparkling and starking in the unchosen
And plus a smidge of hope in
The smokin' and broken way my soul's attached
Jammin' circles into squares, as if the pieces match
A colder laugh
Running over laps
Stuck inside a cul-de-sac
Hold up jack! I think I see a light at the end…
Wait, nope, that's just another train
Comin' around another bend
