Lately, I’ve been sitting in a daze
Wondering why I’m wasting my days
I try to take a step
Not sure which way I should go
Tryin' to explain to myself
But I’m not getting across
Now
You know that I don’t know what to do I feel I’m disappointing you and I’m so sorry
Don’t know why I even bother trying
Sometimes I just know 1234
Mentally I’m disengaged
And I know I want to run away
I don’t want to waste my time anymore
I just want to feel satisfied

Candy-coated
Stories of
How we’d have the time of our lives
But we would come to find out
About real depression and fucked up lies
Late-night hours
College tryouts
Stress from now until we are fucking dead
Turn to drugs
Abandon friends
Depends who you are in the end
Don’t get it wrong
High school isn’t so bad in the end
Compared to the real world
Anger taking over me until I fucking break one day
Late-night hours
College tryouts
Stress from now until we are fucking dead
Turn to drugs
Abandon friends
Flunk out until your pockets are empty
Stay awake
And survive
It’ll be ok one day
I urge you to stay alive
Don’t let them steal your life away
Stay awake
And survive
We’ll all be dead one day anyway

I missed the signs of your decline
And I will never see you again

Blackened lungs
A rotting jaw
Forced back to the basic
Instinctual knaw
Locked up
Teeth are fucking gone
A monstrosity
You have be come
No esophagus
Inescapable
Understated
Disgusting and wasteful
Not the way I want to be
Not the way I will treat thee
An addict’s word is fine
Their bodies will pay for their crimes

I failed to move your feeble body
Out from underneath the stone
As I grabbed for your hand
Your fingers were dead and cold
Failure
On
My end
I couldn’t
Save you
From death
There is no room for heaven
There is no room for hell
In this feeble mind of mine
Please god show yourself
If there’s a god within me, then fucking show yourself
Powerless to stop it
Fuck it all

Doomed
01:17
|
|||
|
I’m barely living
Even though
I know that we’re all doomed
We’re all doomed and I don’t know
Don’t know what to fucking do
You’re not living
You’re just complacent
In their fucking lies
Tell me how to live my life
I want to be a slave like you
too hard living for myself
I want to be a slave like you
We’re all doomed

Corporate Slave

Corporate slave
Slaving away each and every day
Corporate slave
Consuming your life, for so little pay
Corporate slave
Your personality washing down the drain
Corporate slave
Afraid you’ll be a slave till the end of your days
Corporate slave
They don’t care how I feel they don’t care what I say
Corporate slave
Questioning my values every fucking day
Corporate slave
Am I trapped in the system am I trapped in my brain
Corporate slave
I watch you work your fingers to the bone
Just to feed a family when you go home
I’m thankful I don’t have these things to worry about
I just think to myself I need to get out
Every day I stay here I feel I’m becoming the same
I need to get out it’s up to me I’m the only one to blame
