lyrics

Just because we have the same day

Of awakening doesn't mean I have to live the same life of shame and pain

That you believe is in your stars

Count on me to leave out that part, of the story, No one needs to know this



I'm going to plant you as a seed

And watch you grow into the ugliest tree

This is me extracting my revenge

On you all, on myself

I have been so wrong lying seemed to catch on, lying to myself

Theres only one way I can set things straight

Forfeiting my will to create never led never led me more astray.



See what you are asking is the worst

It is taxing everyone surrounding your wasted body to die a little bit with you

And just now I've played along and sang your pathetic dying song

That lovers dance to when they linger on and they hold on

And they hold on, and the air that flows in and out of every breath that the failures get when they wait

When they wait for it, to come back again

oh please won't you come back again





Just stitch your eyes

But not on me

It's all so strange to lose

We'll stall, we'll fall asleep

While I'm reaching out

I'm breaking these fingers back

Straight face in painting

We'll close these eyes collectively

But I know we'll see, we'll have to see

Let's say we love them

But not stray our hearts from thee (what do you know? do you know who you are?)

Let's not stray (Cause I don't know who I am, let alone who engraved these plans in the palms of your hands)



Crawl between and grow

You can never be bigger than the people on either side of you

Crawl between and grow you can never grow as the anti host
