Dead to Me

No re-ignition, as we live to bottom dwell
As I sink into the floor
My aspirations in the bottom of a well
And locked behind a door

Blindfolded, hands tied behind my back
This depressant rusty chain
You know the feeling when the walls begin to crack?
Beauty of the pain

Black veil, you fail. No escape
I feed this freed, dark shape
I seek, this bleak, landscape
Raw nerve, observe, this rape

It's just another theft, another sacrifice
Can't you see there's nothing left?
Just another cold device

I strip it clean with alcohol
And another cigarette
As I try to kill it all
But I haven't killed one yet

Black veil, you fail. No escape
I feed this freed, dark shape
I seek, this bleak, landscape
Raw nerve, observe, this rape

Now I can see I was wrong
I found a place I belong
Where no one will hear, save your cries
Embrace a final sunrise
Captured we are twitching flies
A servant to thee, web of lies

I live a life of illusion
Corrosion of trust, mental perversion

Chronic condition, building a wall
Take your position
But you'll be fine

Out of remission, loss of control
Total submission
Inside your mind

Black veil, you fail. No escape
I feed this freed, dark shape
I seek, this bleak, landscape
Raw nerve, observe, this rape

I am dead to me
