lyrics

And every moment started giving away
Another set of passages that tell us that we cannot be saved
I have a bitter feeling and a heart that is not worth healing

So feed my body to the ocean
I’ll be devoured by the waves
Continue going through the motions and take my name in vain

I had a dream of better things
Watched it break at the seams
We only live meant to die, tell me what you believe?
I was there when you clipped your wings
So now I can’t be
I can’t be sober
I was there and I watched you bleed
so now I can’t be
Sober

Every poet’s got a right to the stage
To tell us all their stories in the hopes that someone hears and relates
But are they really hearing, my spirit that is disappearing?

When I ascend to the light
Can they tell that I tried?
Or can they only see the darkness and the evil inside?
I know that I’m not a saint and some people can’t be saved
We are victims of an illness that the world creates
