In my head something's always going wrong
We can't see it, but it's no far up ahead
I know it's about to explode
It's far too peaceful here.
It's soon to disappear
You can't seem to expect
Good without the consequences
As I hold my breath
Wait for the collapse
As we tip-toe through life
I'm scared to live in it
So scared of what's ahead
I always fear the bends
Disappointment is all that I know
The instability, familiar, holds on to me.
You can't stay comfortable
For too long, for too long.
Too long, too long
You can't seem to expect
Good without the consequences
But to coexist we'll wait on the coin to flip
We're so scared to grip
For fear it will slip right through
Fickle as the wind
Just waiting for the collapse
Slow up
(Slow up)
Calm down
(Calm down)
Breathe out
And take it all in
Slow up
Calm down
Breathe out
And take it all in

And here we stand now, intimate strangers in the end
With these cold sheets we lay between
We're holding onto what, makes us emptier again
Your skin it lingers with my regret
As I'm falling asleep and you're grabbing the wheel
You say hold on tight it'll be okay
Did you really think that?
Pull me into the sea so we don't drown alone
You've made your bed with mine so we can call this home
And as the waves crash around us
I watch your eyes grow with fear
We have created a riptide
Our fate lies here
Your skin it lingers with my regret
As I'm falling asleep and you're grabbing the wheel
You say hold on tight it'll be okay
Did you really think that?
Pull me out of here
Onto land
As I disappear
Hold my hand
Lover, we're not playing fair

Maybe there's some comfort in
Your repetition
Never had the chance to learn
This could be different
Tell me I'm pretty, I'll call you a liar
We're both being honest
With different intentions
We're hiding our feelings
Or skewing our meanings
Cause what's worse than feeling alone?
Everything comes around
Full circles that we won't escape from now
In rhythm, their patterns adjacent
Don't know to replace them
And we'll just keep going around
And what's worse
In my mind
I'll say it's all my fault
And this time it'll all be different
Well I lied
But goodbyes are difficult
We have fooled only ourselves
Only ourselves
All is said and done
I try to believe I'm the only one
We both know
You're onto the next one
Everything comes around
Full circles that we won't escape from now
In rhythm, their patterns adjacent
Don't know to replace them
And we'll just keep going around
Everything comes around
Full circles that we won't escape from now
In rhythm, each patterns adjacent
Don't know to replace them
And we'll just keep going around
Around
Till we hit the ground
Stuck repeating endless cycles
Entrapped inside these reruns
I'm breaking down
I'm wearing out
I'm breaking down

I will drown them out
You'll look much better now
Flip the script
Paint you the victim here
Just wash your hands
Well, who made you the jury of anything?
Waltzing 'round here with a gavel in your hand
Ready to execute anyone
Your self-righteousness it's just sickening
If you preach louder then maybe they'll believe.
If you speak loud enough, how will they ever see
What is done in the dark
You're just the one that bleeds
Well, who made you the jury of anything?
Waltzing 'round here with a gavel in your hand
Ready to execute anyone
Your self-righteousness it's just sickening
As the hypocrisy dances off your tongue
I can't believe you were the one who looked down on us
Rejecting your guilt, finessing your lies
I guess that what's done in the dark always comes to light
And how do you clear your conscience
Your broken and skewed moral compass
Or will you turn your back away?
And how do you clear your conscience
Your broken and skewed moral compass
Keep tossing your rocks at glass houses
Finally reveal what your ruse is
You'll fall down

Worlds away from what we thought
The intertwining irony of this all
As paths collide and stories cross
We live within this social paradox
Who saw it first?
Dirty hands will point their fingers first
You're not exempted from this
Cause guilty lies know where to hide
But who are you if not but good?
Just a victim to the system that sheds your blood
You shed your tears
You're shaken up
And press your fists against the very wall that you built up
Dirty hands will point their fingers first
You're not exempted from this
Cause guilty lies know where to hide
Take off your mask
Show us who you are
Just a coward, guilty as hell
Not fooling anyone
Dirty hands will point their fingers first
You're not exempted from this
Cause guilty lies know where to hide
Stay uncomfortable
Stop deflecting
Quiet your voice for once
Burn the cycle

This skin's not home
Her breath feels cold
A stranger I barely know
I'll cover her so they don't know
The shame that lives under
It's haunting my body
I can't stand the sight of me
I can't
They say that the mirror tells the truth
Well, it's lying to my face
Like it's got nothing to prove
These voices in my head
These voices in my head
Feel so familiar
I'll let them settle in
Think I'll believe them.
Yeah
It's haunting my body
I can't stand the sight of me
I can't
They say that the mirror tells the truth
Well, it's lying to my face
Like it's got nothing to prove
These days feel I'm crawling in my skin
So I'll take another pill
Let the medicine kick in
Stand by myself in my bare skin
And I can't believe what a mess I've been
Again

You'll find yourself circling this world
With a heaviness so strong, can't seem to shake it
It starts in your gut, as it begins to fill you up
Until the void is all you have, and it leaves you naked
Singing in the dark to a song can't you feel anymore
As it leaves you so raw
Screaming to yourself as the words seem to fall on deaf ears
There's a loneliness here
And you pray it'll all feel right with time
But as the time breathes and expands
Well it's getting worse
And you say, one day it will be fine
But that day will never come
And each second it feels cursed
And solitude is unrehearsed
Singing in the dark to a song can't you feel anymore
As it leaves you so raw
Screaming to yourself as the words seem to fall on deaf ears
There's a loneliness here
I feel I've lost the better part of me
I feel the sun won't ever be complete again
I feel you slip away from me
Oh
I'm losing faith now
Singing in the dark to a song
Singing in the dark to a song can't you feel anymore
As it leaves you so raw
Screaming to yourself as the words seem to fall on deaf ears
There's a loneliness here

You stare there with your smoking gun
Go on and pull the trigger
It's clear you think we're too far gone
Pretend you're not the killer
Break us up
Tear us down
And we'll see how quickly it turns around
Keep pointing out the failures and all our mistakes
It seems to me that everyone can fall from grace
I'll stand in this garden, it feels cursed
By shadows of memories that once were
As venom fills up veins one by one
Your hollowness haunts the sun
The past reveals your common gods
Stand picturesque with your game face on
Your statue becomes withered and torn
Cracks reveal what we knew all along
You're just a fraud with a serpent's tongue
I'll stand in this garden, it feels cursed
By shadows of memories that once were
As venom fills up veins one by one
Your hollowness haunts the sun
We can't turn back, we can't turn back, we can hold on
We can't turn back
You told me we were so unholy
Who are you to decide who's worthy?
You told me we were so unholy
Who are you to decide who's holy?

Who are you?
How should you dictate how I feel?
Do you even know?
Do you even care to? Try to?
So far removed you are
Won't know the harm you've caused
But you dare to speak
This is not your place
Don't even dare to. Try to.
Silence them all
You've met the end of your rope
The world spins around you
It's time to end it all
The world's not your playground
For everyone to dance around
Violent institution
Here for a desolation
You've held your power for too long
I'll cut you off
You keep inserting yourself
You don't belong
I'll take it back
You held me in your grasp
But I'm taking it back
