I didn't understand
I was obsessed with the turning of time
My condition, my fucked up mind
I lied, I said I was fine
Then the reflection shut my eyes
They looked through me like a some-day suicide
I swear to god I should be taped up and left alone
Fed to the fishes of my soul
I saw an animal with its leg caught in a tree
It was wailing, it was dying
I stared and did nothing
And thought that everything is constantly suffering
And nature in its cruelty is constantly watching
My shattered soul is always fading
Into the air that nature gave me
And becoming a part of the machinery of humanity
I didn’t know who I was
I didn't know where I had been
I didn't know what happened
I didn't understand
Trapped inside, the things I hated I tried to hide
I tried to get away, I went outside
Oh god every knife knew where to cut
Oh my god every feeling knew where to look
Deep down I was lost like I always was
Deep down [You were lost like you've always been]

Were you the reason I longed for nothing
Were you the storm cloud in between my ears
Was it you who spit puzzles in my skull
Were you the silence swallowing everything
[I am only you]
Was I made with some strength
Was it within me
Was it within me
Or was I the coffin I will be buried in
Was I the coffin I will be buried in
Was it within me
I saw it all at once
I will never be golden
I saw it all at once
I will never be golden
Was it within me
Was it within me
[You were wailing, you were dying]
[You stared and did nothing]
I was agony
[Hanging from your tree]
I've never had what it takes to live in peace that's there but fake
The decisions I made were all mistakes
I destroyed the things I made
The best of days were agonizing
Begging mirrors to try and break
The sinking feeling in free falling
The numbing feeling was never coming
I was the God of pure despair
[The animal you couldn't save]
Brain needles, endless stabbing
My soul needed some kind of soothing

Red came rushing down my sink
Red came rushing down my sink
Everything, everything was flowing through my bloodstream
Hit my head against the wall
Talk and talk, it burst my eardrums
Everything, everything was leaving me and down my drain
Get out of my head
[Kill the animal]
Tree rings ate my head
[Cyanide soaked your smile]
I can't do this
[Giving up is painless]
I stuck my head in the tub
It all went black

Abbadon, Asmodeus
Agamemnon fed to the animal
Beelzebub, Jesus
Jesus, Beelzebub
God
empty, darkness, pain, fire, torture
Psyche eaten by Lucifer
Psyche

I woke up, I was alive
Ate my bucket of pills like colored candy
I just wanted to feel alone
Separated and out of control
Everything was a side effect meant to kill what I am
But nothing did so I just wished that you'd die
[You cry at night cause you're alone
You're a coward trained to let go
Don't you see the theme, it's all your fault
But nonetheless you blame them all
And even when you realize you don't even attempt to stop
All of mankind finally gave up
Cause you're empty, such a burden
Give them just one good reason to stick around
Yeah you've got nothing
Everybody knows that they're better off without you there
You're not enough
You're just a drug, you'll wear off
You trapped everyone, all for yourself
You're selfish and addictive, you ruin all that you touch
Everyone you love will someday see
You're an animal caught in a tree
You only beg for what you want
But you've got a soul that can't be loved
You only got what you deserved
You're a pathetic hypocrite, a selfish piece of shit
A suffering, self hating, isolating, isolated animal]
Shut the fuck up
You're wrong
You're wrong
You're wrong
That's not me
I'm alive and in control
I promised I'd try
I promise I'll try
I promise I'll try
I promise

Something took a knife and gutted me
And all that was good spilled out of me
Can they hear me
Can they see me
I flushed the pills
Something drowned in the tub filled up with my own blood
Something came alive in a sky of medicine
I didn't understand I don't think I can
[We can become something human]
There's beauty in falling apart
I can't accept these scissors for fingers
I can't accept this poison for water
I can't accept these cages for nature
I can't accept this dying animal for who I am
