Belonging 02:42
My eyes mirror a certain disdain for company A hatred for who you are and what I've become Where I lost myself in cement blocks, human hearts, and the evil in you I could never find myself Removed from my own mind Walking the streets like i'm one of your kind Under pressure pushed to conform Louder than lies and I won't be ignored Even when put down I will not be shut out My mind will not be contained I will never feel true unity I will never believe i will never feel true unity I will never believe I will never believe There's a place for me There's no place for me

Ouuuu It gets harder to speak as I Choke on my words Bite my tongue Realize these words mean nothing at all Or they just mean everything to you Realize what your actions do The world doesn't revolve around you So why do you lie? These words that encase your heart These words that encase your heart They only play a part They only play a part These words that fill your mind These words that fill you mind They only play a part They only play a part My hearts beating out of my fucking chest Can you silence these voices in my fucking head I've split myself in two What I say What I do I've split myself in two What I say What I fucking do

I am nothing to myself As I live in the dark This fleeting feeling of hope retreats from my mind I am forever empty I am forever corrupt I am not in control And I see no hope I tear away at myself Looking for what I fucking need Fading into nothing What am I worth I will destroy myself Parting at my fucking seams Refusal I will not look outward Into the dark of this world Where they told me dreams were held My journeys brought me nothing Just misconceptions of myself A misguided presence searching for reality In a land where nothing is real How can I find myself I tear away at myself Looking for what I fucking need Fading into nothing What am I worth I will destroy myself Parting at my fucking seams Refusal I will not look outward I am ignorance I am your greatest sin I am the end of the line I am what you've always been

When i'm staring down the barrel Finger on the trigger and I can't stand it I cant take my own life But I can't help but slip into depression Bedridden my flesh is rotting And I see no escape My mind is my lord My body it's slave And my life is their's to take. As I spill these words onto silence Am I broken or how broken am I? And I see no escape No salvation My life is forfeit And I see no escape No salvation My life is forfeit Finger on the trigger My head in the noose Blade to my neck Why don't you choose

Worst 03:32
Do you remember who you were when we first met Can you believe how far we've gone But I never wanted to feel this way again I've strayed so far from what I knew You were always there You kept me safe Been there when I needed you How did we come so far? I have wandered and been defeated But I have never quit I have never given up I have wandered and been defeated But I have never quit I have never given up I see the happiness draining from your eyes Your soul My soul Intertwined in time I could never understand how I took this road When all I followed was lies I could never be happy without you I could never feel alive again Defeated Consumed by my vices Surrounded by temptation But I wont be redeemed I've betrayed, mistreated and abused I've betrayed, mistreated and abused Break! Fuck it all! All I ever wanted was to be redeemed All I ever wanted was to be redeemed
