lyrics

confusing ego death with real death
you mean nothing to me
now come and read
this fiction i weave
can’t let you see the real me
swap masks eternally
lie through my teeth
bite the cord and run free

it feeds, it thrives
then kicks its way inside and
chokes ‘till my lips go blue

cover up, suck it up
before i show you what it
takes to kill the time in hell

a dissociative tendency
stranger to myself
peel back the skin
mannequin stand-in
time to kill this sinking feeling
crack open my chest
but nothing’s there
just fucking stale air

living feels like a disease
and there ain’t no antidote
i staved it off today
i made it through today

there’s only one door out
and it's fucking nailed shut
but i staved it in today
i got away today
