lyrics

(Intro):
I don't care anymore.

(Verse 1):
I don't want to keep sleep-walking to your death-trap.
You drain my spirit ‘til I’m starving for a setback.
I feel like a lost dog with a rope as a collar on its neck.
I won't holler that it gets snapped;
but I am not a pet to control.
Nobody’s an exception. Your hobbies are suppressive,
and I cannot accept who is so
invested in grading and testing my role.
It's degrading; the pins and the needles.
I trip on syringes positioned to prick me [it's evil…];
slip into fetal-position and wish that
at least one that sticks in’s a lethal injection.
This is deceitful, abusive.
Why must I be flawless to people? These humans…
swallow my dreams; force me to modify me
to make sure I qualify.
If it's not the right league that I've got inside,
then I promise I’ll leave. Hollow’s my Eve.
I’m empty as well. Don't follow my lead.
I readily fell. Bravado dying.
Maybe I’m too fragile-boned for this,
because they all say I've got a nice thing.
I’ll sow up these lips and be quiet
since nothing I say is a fix for the silence.

(Hook):
Is that good enough for you?
Is that good enough for you?
Have I done too much, or far too less?
I’m at a loss again. I just cannot win…

(Bridge):
Is that good enough for you?
I think you love cutting through
just to see what I will do.
Next time, there won't be a next time. Something new…

(Verse 2):
opiate binges to cope; being senseless.
I don't really know another way.
clothe me in singes. my hand’s on the stove
and I don't need resistance. I’m over what they say.
woe and affliction’s the focus of my days.
I just want to go with my friends. they're shadows in the distance;
gone, and I’m hopeless that it gets
better ‘cause it never shows when they're cold and so stiff in
the pine-wood box.
Are you resting in peace?
Is it a blessing to be out of stress
and the grief that's infective and bleeds?
I am not sensitive. I’m a collective of messes.
Need medical treatment.
But, I’ll sow up these lips and be quiet
since nothing I say is a fix for the silence.

(Hook)
