lyrics

They're beating me to the beat of my heart not beating.
I'm receding to my shell; the hell I've built for myself.
A dim-eyes demise ill relish.
I'm unraveling through severed selvage.
Please explain to me how is destroying everything I love is selfish?

I have no ambitions,
The only decisions that I make are incisions to rake the drain I'm tracing.
Now I'm facing a train,
Now I'm drifting from my lane,
Now i'm jumping off the bridge to join the rain...

Now I'm facing the pain with painkillers.
I'm not saying i'm sane, I'm saying I'm no longer afraid to lay with those who lay decayed...
Another droplet dancing down the drain.

...

Breathe in,
Now let your breath leave you...
As you leave behind what has not yet left you.
Forget the places you've been, and the faces you take comfort in.
Breathe in...
now stop breathing.
