Red Marks

Out of the womb, into the sanctum of life
Pass the knife, exposing my arm to groom
Shades of grey colour the walls
Then everything surrounding turns to black
I rely on everybody to make it through the day
Work for nothing, expect nothing in return
Work for something, expect nothing in return
She reigns over me
Everyday
Constantly
Eternally
She reigns over me
Rip through the seam
It's so much easier on me
Rip through the seam
If you proceed, then stop at nothing
Rip through the seam
It all makes sense to me
The butter knife only leaves red marks
Like the bugs of the earth
I measure my own self-worth
Piece by piece, I'll remove myself from the world

I am the problem
You are the solution
Soft skin, pleasure
She is the sun and I am rain
Bad weather
Trickling down to the ground
Stay Down
As to not upset the crown
I am the problem
I am at fault here
I am the problem
Same old, same old
I am the problem
It makes sense to me
All the fucking same
Burn

Dead-set on ending this
All I need is an audience
What's the point if no one's there to see?
I'll grab the knife and drag it slowly
Then watch it bleed--I'll kill myself today
600,000 eyes stare back at me
I found a way out
To give my life
Despite wrong it is
It feels so right
My personal knife fight
This grave will feed you ashes
That you will never sow
I'll locked the door
And hide the key
Someplace dark where you can't see
So you can't make it out alive
So I can die with you by my side

Fuck your fake god
And your religion
I'm a deadbeat with no ambition
Forever lost
Same old story, masochist
Rendered useless, nothingness
I write the story
Craft the scenes from memories
I'll design the ending
So that I explore the greatest malheurs
To see if it's all worth it
That in which I'm after
I refuse to take this abuse

I'd bleed for you in the bedroom
Because I know no other way
To tell you how I feel
Except in metaphors and wordplay
I know how much this means to you
Separate myself from the list of things that I
Dwell on as a means to my own end
It's easier said than done
I give in to the ever-present
Worship
Breathe
Warm breath
Leave me
Save yourself
Take my word
Your better off with someone else
I feel the cold, fragrant air
Mixing in with these feelings of despair
I only exist in this world as a vessel
Of self-fucking hatred and pain
Total annihilation
I could count all of my bones.

Breathe
Breathing slow
There's something wrong
Silence fills the room
Certain endings loom
Frozen, I cannot move
Because I know it's over soon
There's something wrong
Something wet
Something warm
Lifeless
I can't find the words for what was felt
Beauty laid exactly where we said it would
There is nothing more I could have asked for
There's something wrong
Something wet
Something warm
Lifeless
I can't find the words for what was felt
Beauty laid exactly where we said it would
There's something wrong
I said goodbye for the last time
I'm staring at the world
And it stares right back at me
Wrapped in the strength of a thousand arms
We say our last goodbye
I counted down the days
The phases of the moon
In hopes that the wind would take me too
Pressure continues to build
But things cease to change
It's always the same

Dig me out of this hole
I'm sick and feel alone
But I digress
I'm not a mess, just a victim of circumstance
Yesterday, I found a place inside
Because I won't run
So I need to hide
From these feelings of guilt and grief that govern my life
There's no relief
Alive and well is what I tell myself
There's nothing left
But apathy and fucking stress
Alive and well is what I tell myself
Not a mess, just a victim of circumstance
Fuck everything
Fuck everything that you own
Fuck everything
Fuck everything that you stand for
You fucked with me everyday
Further, further
It's a failure to breathe, and I'm drowning
So give me the fucking rope
And wrap it around my neck
Still I remain entrusted in this
System of guilt
I sealed my fate
When I called this place my home
I suppose I would
Take it back if I thought I could
Never the less we trudge on
In the land of sad and numb
Alive and well
I'm gone, you're nothing
I've gone away
Not gonna sleep today
I can't sleep anymore
I've gone away
But I think it's better off this way
Fuck everything
Fuck everything that you own
Fuck everything
Fuck everything that you stand for
You fucked with me everyday
Further, further
It's a failure to breathe
And I'm drowning
My fate is sealed
This is me dug in
Nowhere to go but down
In the land of doom and gloom

Enemy Number One

Seven minutes
'Til this is fucking over
Losing all feeling
Extremities are growing colder
My mind is weeping
Weeping for something greater
I'm breaking down, I think it's time to end this once and for all
I'm trying (trying)
But nothing (nothing)
Is working (working)
Never-ending criticism
That I impose on myself (on myself)
I'll never (never)
Be good enough (good enough)
Despite everything that I'm saying
I'd be lost without this feeling
It reminds me when I'm at my darkest
That I'm still alive
I'm alive, but only for tonight
I'm drowning (drowning)
Myself (in a)
Sea of (self-pity)
Apathy continues to swallow me whole (it swallows)
Filthy, I'm (hollow)
Guilty, I (wallow)
Always trying to find the answers
Despite my trying nothing matters
I am on a mission against myself
It makes me feel alive
I'm alive, but only for tonight
I'm alive, but just for tonight
Consider this my final goodbye
I am the enemy number one
I am dead.
