So I've been told just to let it go
can't do it on my own stop trying to take control
what the fuck do I know I don't run the show
and those who choose to go always die alone
The air in my lungs is just enough
I already know that I'm all fucked up
I tore it out because that's what I wanted
If I couldn't kill it then you would've won this
Told me I had a hole in my soul
where the seeds of my sorrows were sown
earned my seat for all my trouble
I couldn't trust myself on my own
just play pretend until it makes sense
it doesn't work unless you work it
admit my powerlessness
find your God as I understood him
The air in my lungs is just enough
I already know that I'm all fucked up
I tore it out because that's what I wanted
If I couldn't kill it then you would've won this
I've always known just what I want
I've got my own cross to bear
I'm only half of who I was
the other drowned back there
for something and someone so fucking false
made of plastic and thin air
I never could quite forgive myself
but I could learn not to care

Suffer

Maybe it was all a bad dream
guess nothing's how it seems
you don't have to believe in me
but no light at the end of any tunnel is coming
had to find my place
couldn't do it with any grace
you can't save your face and change at the same time
least not in my case
had to crawl through all the shit
to get any of this
had to get sick of losing to win
had to be lost to be found to begin with
so I've got a disease
nothing new now I've got three
there isn't a cure or a remedy
but I'm feeling fine up off my knees
I lost a lot of time
looking back at what got lost along the line
and if you got left behind
then maybe you belong there I already got mine
It doesn't hurt anymore and I know
it could be round the corner
the thirst for more that I know from before
but I've been getting stronger
I'm not the first but now I know for sure
sometimes we have to suffer
And no light at the end of any tunnel is coming

Gone (I don't care)

You are not me and I'm not you now
I turned it all inside out
And all that you lost I still haven't found
when I cut you out, wanted to take me down
It wasn't easy no still feels wrong
I'll keep the pressure on a little longer
I tried too hard to hold on well
letting go of you felt so much better
Letting go of you felt so much better
still feels wrong
You don't own me now
and I don't care where you've gone
you can't use me now
and I dont care where you've gone
you can't rape me now
and I don't care where you've gone
you can't break me now
and I don't care where you've gone
I don't care where you've gone
still feels wrong

Have you been waiting patiently?
I see you on the other side of the room
and I know just what you want to do with me
like a ghost in the way that you move through
feel like someone just walked over my grave
dancing over my heart in your favourite shoes
Can't resist the sweet scent of your perfume
cigarette smoke that you blew me a kiss through
you can taste from me if I can taste from you if you wanted to
all through the night and all through the next life too
I'm inflicted with a sickness and its all because of you
and your perfume

Sitting on a pedestal they built for you
its a shame you were so easily disproved
removed from the throne as living proof
you get what you deserve in the end don't you?
Now you're running for the nearest exit
safer to run than to man up and face it
you talk a good game but I don't fucking buy it
from a worm like you that's up to its neck in shit
A worm like you
Watch how it slithers away
fat bloated naked and ashamed
it buries into the ground
to hide its wretched face
dig it up
I want to watch it squirm
hold it up
I want to hear it learn
light it up
and watch it burn away
shut it up
its got nothing left to say
A worm like you

Broken Parts

Lost a lot, not the same
missing things but I'm okay
I just woke up in a different place
gather thoughts what else to bring
there's danger here I hear you say
dangers everywhere same as always
you patched me up with what remained
and who I was slipped away
You rebuilt from broken parts and it feels alright yeah
misery machine replaced my heart and it beats just fine yeah
guess we better try to make a start and its one straight line yeah
you rebuilt me from broken parts and it feels alright yeah
From broken parts
You rebuilt from broken parts and it feels alright yeah
misery machine replaced my heart and it beats just fine yeah
guess we better try to make a fucking start and its one straight line yeah
you rebuilt me from broken parts and it feels alright

After A Girl

Fashion victim in a suicide room
sex machine to an oxygen booth
if you've got the money there's a fume for you
that'll take the edge of the sharpest suit
well dressed liar on the tv screen
selling you shit that you don't fucking need
there's a war going on in the world
they just built a bomb and they named it after a girl
They just built a bomb and they named it after a girl
they just built a bomb and they named it after a...
Everyone just trying to get by
then a missile strike drops out the sky
the lights came down and the fire went high
looks like we didn't get out on time
the girl was built for city life
she's dressed to kill and ignite the night
I can hear her cumming from the wrong side
sounds a lot like goodnight and goodbye
They just built a bomb and they named it after a girl
they just built a bomb and they named it after a...

The Pragmatist

There is a serpent in the burden of me
it doesn't offer you anything but the truth growing with the trees
but the truth isn't what you want when their lies come so cheap
so you can believe in anything so long as they agree
its time you open your eyes and wake up
from your sleep
the shadows you are so afraid of
are from the light you refuse to see
The abyss is only knee deep where angels fear to fly
won't you step over it with me we can make it to the other side
with one lie after the other they'll seize what's left of you
I want for you to remember how to break a lie with a truth
