The hollow sound of an empty vessel
Or another pill before I hit the ground
Nail my mind to the pale below
Or paint my demon with poisoned sound
Scrape my mouth and nauseate
Or walk the tightrope with blackened heart
Stop this lie and let me leave
Or stand and watch as it tears me apart
Nails that tell a thousand stories
Lost in this search for clarity
A roller coaster of dreams and lies
But still I’m gagged by invisibility
Smile and pretend as the cross burns beneath me
Don’t wanna be this
Everyday the same in my mind
Don’t awake me
Asleep I’m free
All this time I can’t deny
Couldn’t see what’s in my eyes
Those so close so blind to see
This cancer takes the best of me
This ends now, I’ll show you how
Senses numb no more believe me
Dead man walks to pass you by
Reaching out the only way to survive
Outposts reaching ahead
Fight the drug that feeds this nightmare
Bell tolls a thousand cuts bled
Ashes of the virus left for dead
Resurrection from the pit of time
Here in the, blink of an eye
Struggle to defeat this sense of dread
With so much confusion in your head
In your head
In your head
