lyrics

the back of my eyes seeing red
from a gaping hole inside my head
fire at will it wont mean a thing
asch paradigm in spite of me

the whites, of my eyes
are yellow from the sleepless nights
dumb like, kid's play
we're all naive to what we say

willing to steady my aim
killing off a tired name
always known but never said
the whistle blows, but we sleep instead
plastic bags of burning hearts
cracked vocal chords as our alarms
I cut my legs off long ago
they only seem to bring me home

what won't, they stand
as rivers run like piano hands
I'm overwhelmed, i will not try
the judgements are hung out to dry

if i will, have strength
i'll stretch the truth to untold lengths
believe, that it's fine
when dichotomy pollutes my life
