lyrics

Going through the motions
That which I have built are crashing
In on me

Feel like suicide today, if I could just sleep forever

My energy has gone everywhere except where it should go and now I have nothing
My heart is black from smoke
My soul is almost broken
My head is numb from thinking
About nothing other than what should have been

If I could close my eyes and never wake again, I’d say goodbye to you and you could listen to my heartbeat end
No more weakness or fear
If this is something no one can hear, then be happy for me, because I had no place here

Darkness encompasses me as I can no longer stand
My deathgrip on the façade I built, loosening
So, for everytime I lied
Acted as if I didn’t know
I apologize to myself as I fulfill my destiny

Never again
Never once
Never lived
Never
Always lying
Always dead
Always sad
Always
