lyrics

Deeper and deeper down
Further and further away
More black, more decay
Less hope, less gray
When the mirrors have sank
And all the good draws blank
You begin to raise your own rank
As you drift to the bottom of the tank
“I'm better, I'm better”
You say as you wither
Worms creep and they slither
Remember, “I'm better”
As you depart from the rest of the world
A world that you and circumstance rejected
You allow your loathsome self to unfurl
The truth has never been more neglected
Think of the standards
To which you've obtained
And no one else has
They all should be ashamed

Run to your elitism
It will keep you safe
And run from your fear
There's nothing but truth there
You pick apart all of them
When it really is yourself
Because you're just too afraid
To admit that you need help
