lyrics

A back lit man meanders to and fro

I squint to trace the outline as he slowly fades away

He turns his head to see what’s left to show

The strangers that he’d recognize outweigh the friend he’d know


So shoot all the messengers and their innocence of fault

The barer of bad news is always first against the wall

Tell the king the castle’s breached there’s demons closing in

To watch him squirm and churn and weave regretting every sin

Well this life is a nightmare


He stumbles out withdrawing from the crowd

Gripping grasping clawing at the walls to hold him up

His’ stare is black and vile to the sky

Believe in those who seek the truth but finding it’s a lie.


So throw captain overboard this vessel now be mine

Fly the flag of wickedness a blacken heart arise

Stain the seas dark red with blood no innocent survive

A relic of forgotten hate is all that burns inside

this life is a nightmare

Life is a nightmare

Life is a nightmare


Well if our struggle is depression

Lonesome habits are the tell

What’s done is done if we’re the cause then save us from ourselves


I’m just selfish and divided

I’m just ignorant and cruel

But you only get to win the game by breaking every rule


so let’s burn the bridge let’s lock the door

let’s throw away the key

you won’t need friends where we are going all you need is me


i will isolate and permeate

the reasons in our minds

if you make it past the gate you won’t survive the ride


As we go further and further and further and further down
