Bed of Thorns

Surrounded by these four walls
My bed of thorns, you made me sleep in it
Tied down, I'm alone with these thoughts
Ceilings caving in with all the demons I've fought
These thorns, they tear at my side
Keeping me awake as I swing through the night
Tryin' to slip away, slip away from the truth
Can't run forever, get what's coming to you
Teeth rotting right out of my head
Fingertips are bleeding from making my bed
Hiding deep within to avoid the pain, splitting at the seams from this
muffled rage
Too many thorns sticking into my back, walking on eggshells under
constant attack
Can't fucking sleep with this thorn in my side
Can't fucking think with these thoughts on my mind

Drowning Dry
02:37
|
|

Throat is slit from ear to ear, tongue is fucking tied
Stuck inside this fucking town, no will to survive
Waking up is hard as hell when you're drowning in your pillow
Waking up is hard as hell, don't want to go outside
Like a corpse, I sit and stare
Brittle bones, I'm always cold
No taste, no touch, just dirty looks burnt into my skull
My skin is cracked, I'm bleeding through
I can't escape the failure Righteousness does not exist, feed me to the wolves
Like a corpse, I sit and stare
Brittle bones, I'm always cold
If this is growing up, please kill me now
This fucking town has sucked me dry

The Other Side
02:17
|
|

Sink in back to the bottom
Back to back to satisfy your needs
Because our side is worlds apart
From the vices that own you and the chains that bind your soul
Thinking about the things in my life, take another look from the other side
Makes me fucking ill but I stand alone
'Cause I don't belong, don't want to belong
What the fuck do you know about solitude?
You don't know shit, only how to lose
Listen motherfucker, this is your last free ride
Sink in, work from the bottom
Blinded by the struggle and content when you go under
And you'll never see the world through our eyes, not a single crutch to hold
Seeing red because you put me there
Pitch me a lie, tell me life isn't fair
Caught up in nothing ain't getting you nothing
So end this charade before your dreams fully fade
Beat by your judgement, dead where I stand
Ripped out your heart to hold in my hand
Take another look from the other side, take another look through these eyes
Take another look from the other side, take another look through my
dead old eyes
Thinking about the things in my life, take another look from the other
fucking side

Done Digging Holes
03:59
|
|

Rain comes down and I'm under again
Looking for reflection, feeling nothing but dead
Looking for something to call my own
Looking for the answers when they're so hard to find
Leave me alone to die in my head, a nail in the coffin for every word
you never said
Rain comes down, eroding my skull
Surrounded by family but I feel so alone
Feeling this feeling like a beast in my cage
Seeing no end with my eyes filled with rage
Seeing no end, what has my life become?
Seeing no end, just hang your head
A life that's spent slowly working backwards
A brain that's set to my own downfall
Seeing, searching, feeling but with no result
Crawl into the corner just to hang my head
Dead man stare into my eyes but you see no life
Scratching at the surface but at the bottom of the barrel
Dead mans stare 'cause I see no end
Crawl into the corner just to hang my head
Down on the ground with my face to the floor
I broke my fucking jaw so I won't bother..
You, I cannot stand, I cannot take
Done digging holes, I'm done feeling safe
Choking on my blood, beginning to taste, feeling this feeling like a
beast in his cage
Rain comes down and I'm under again, searching for the light as the
thunder begins
Rain comes down, eroding my skull Surrounded by family but I feel so
alone in my head, I'll die here alone Surrounded by the things that I
fear the most
Alone in this fight, but still I fight
Alone in my head, the rain, it never stops
Choking on my blood I feel so alone

Severed Tongues
02:37
|
|
||
Path's may cross but that's where it ends
We're worlds apart, not foes nor friends
I'll tear out your cords, I'll cut out your tongue
A blank fucking stare, I'll grind your teeth
I'll nail your jaw to the floor, just swallow your tongue
What was said, it's done
Walking backwards with the things you say
Here's some rope, please feel free
Running your jaw, coming loose at the hinge
Cords will snap from the weight of the lies
Smell the fucking truth, see it right in your eyes
Running your jaw and I'll nail it to the fucking floor

Kill The Cold
02:42
|
|

Face to face, feelin' shot in the face
Trying to erase the taste you left inside my..
Mouth to mouth, trying to revive myself
That heart of stone you buried in my chest
Ice cold witch, I cannot stand your shit
I cannot sleep at night, only dreaming of your..
Face to face, feelin' shot in the face
Trying to erase the taste you left inside my mouth
These haunted streets I walk at night Can't stay inside and think about..
Your eyes are burnt into my mind
I'd break my bones to stand beside..
Dig myself a deeper hole, crawl inside to kill the cold
That heart of stone, it never bleeds Just slit my throat so I can sleep
Still no love for the weak
Nothing that's left in me
Caught in the cycle again

Serpent
04:05
|
|
||
Weak at the knees and I can't breath No longer strong enough and I can't proceed
Built by your love, destroyed by your hate
I'd sacrifice myself to destroy the snake
Destroy
Serpent
Face to mask, dressed in cloak
Turn my back on the fake
Head of lies, hollow threats
Step with a knife in my back
Lying in a bed that you did not make You dirty fucking serpent, you
fucking snake
You spineless fuck, you got no gut Your throat is mine, you have no..
Spineless motherfucker, better slither away
Not hearing nothing that you're trying to say
Enough is enough you spineless fuck Enough is enough, your throat is mine
Snake in the grass but I can see
The serpent that slithers in between
You would ruin my life if I gave you the chance
So I'm taking out your throat
This is my last breath I can take
Face to mask, this ain't no hollow threat
Not feeling regret from the threat I sent
I'll take your breath, rip it out of your throat
You're way too close to the things that I hold
Come into my life and I will rip you apart
Never take away the things I hold in my heart
