The Suicide Song

i am numb
i'm invisible
i am sick
sick of you
sick of me
sick of breathing
i am sick of
being
i am lonely
i am fearful
i feel helpless
i feel wrong
i don't know where i am going
i don't know where i belong
all theses voices in my head now
they go on and on and on
they keep telling me to end it
they go on and on
i have
no purpose
if i slit my wrists today
who would even care?
my heart
and my mind
are cloaked in dark clouds
i feel like a shadow
this place's
a cold world
void of all belonging
void of all remorse
every day i wake
and the urges grow
to look on the bright side
the bright side suicide
i am lonely
i am fearful
i feel helpless
i feel wrong
i don't know where i am going
i don't know where i belong
all theses voices in my head now
they go on and on and on
they keep telling me to end it
they go on and on
all theses voices in my head now
they go on and on and on
they keep telling me to end it
they go on and on

They say
The eyes
Are the windows
Into the soul
So
When you look
Into mine
What so you see?
Is it a boy?
A man?
A beast?
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster
Within
Each of us
Resides
A beast
From the most wretched sinners
To the holiest of priests
Deep inside
Waiting to break free
Inside of you inside of me
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster
You see the horrors
They come
And they go
I've embraced them
As my own
For better
For worse
My blessing
My curse
Monster
Monster
Monster
Monster
Monster
Monster
Monster
Monster
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster
Absence of heart turns a man into a monster, a monster

they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
they've been screwing us so long we think it's okay
brainwashed to think that we don't have a say
the buck starts with us and should end with them in jail
so let's overthrow the government
cause it was built to fail
they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
shoot to kill is the order
and the target is you
but they want you to think
that there's nothing you can do
you listen to the media
the propaganda in your head
but why don't you listen to
the screams of the innocent instead
they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
they want all for one
and none for all
the time has come for the system to fall
we seem to have all forgot
the we are one
all we care about now
is who sits on the throne
you treat us all like sheep
and like lambs to the slaughter we follow
blood red colours the streets
while you slumber in silk sheets
did our forefathers fight for
police brutality?
no voice
no choice
but death

Hollow
03:31
|

where are you?
and why aren't you here?
cause lately i've been feeling so alone
i'm hollow
i'm empty
my other half's away from me
her face is all i care to see
each passing month
feels like a year
i miss you darling
i miss you dear
come back to me
so i can smile again
come calm this storm
that seems to never end
i miss you
and i hate it
and i'm tired
of being alone
melancholy
is all that i know
i'm hollow
hollow
i miss you
and i hate it
and i'm tired
of being alone
melancholy
is all that i know
i'm hollow
hollow

the moments are fleeting
his heart it's not beating
he wishes each day
would just end up his last
he dropped out of school
cause he thinks that it's cool
so they asked what he does
he said skateboards and punk rock
i refuse to be
what you want me to be
i'll go skate
i'll go chant
don't dare say that i can't
fuck the rules
fuck the norm
fuck the law
fuck conform
cause life's too inconsistent
to have it any other way
19 and reckless
the world is his playground
he'll smoke a joint
perhaps a bong
sleep all day
and at night he's gone
he'll ink his skin
bleach his hair
go each day without a single care
isolation
desolation
getting by with no motivation
i refuse to be
what you want me to be
i'll go skate
i'll go chant
don't dare say that i can't
fuck the rules
fuck the norm
fuck the law
fuck conform
cause life's too inconsistent
to have it any other way

don't give a damn about your sleeping children
don't give a damn about your sleeping children
we won't turn the music down

you can't hurt me I'm already dead
fuck you for trying i'll kill you instead
BLEGH!
slither like the serpents in your heart
(heart)
watch them take you over
slither like the serpents in your soul
(soul)
as you lose control
slither like the serpents in your mind
(mind)
they've been there all this time
slither like the serpents in the night
(night)
venom in your bite
in case of emergency
in case of emergency
scream
in case of emergency
in case of emergency
scream
slither like the serpents in your heart
watch them take you over
slither like the serpents in your soul
as you lose control
slither like the serpents in your mind
they've been there all this time
slither like the serpents in the night
(night)
venom in your bite
in case of emergency
in case of emergency
scream
in case of emergency
in case of emergency
scream
manipulate, corrupt, and deceive
spreading hate and disease is how you live
the 'lie' in believe, the 'ill' in illusion
emotions your play things
the death toll your kind brings
you wear your heart on your sleeve is what you preach
does it even beat?

dearly beloved
our time has come
our paths have parted
go back to the time
you were cupid's target
did you smile?
did you sink?
did it tingle up inside?
did it melt your heart strings
one by one
your heart is racing
your breath is gone
the memories of you and me
i'd hoped to bury entirely
but now you're here
my heart's playing lost and found
this uncertainty
is haunting me
this uncertainty
is haunting
is it me
is it you
is it us
are we we lost?
are we here
are we found
didn't we burn to the ground?
my mind is uneasy
my heart is in knots
have we found what we were
or are we lost?
the memories of me and you
i seem to hold even though we're through
but now you're here
my heart's playing lost and found
this uncertainty
is haunting me
this uncertainty
is haunting
is it me
is it you
is it us
are we we lost?
are we here
are we found
didn't we burn to the ground?
my mind is uneasy
my heart is in knots
have we found what we were
or are we lost?

Kings and Queens

I see you in my sleep
I feel you on my skin
your smile is unlike anything
my eyes have ever seen
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
to beat into your heart
is all id ever want to do
the stars and the moon in the sky
they all shine bright just for you
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
and i
am at a loss of words to say
and i
swear she takes my breath away
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
kings and queens bow down at her beauty
at her beauty
at her beauty
at her beauty
at her beauty
