Girl come take off your skin
Let me see you grin
Without the facade of flesh
Come Let me see the rest
Beyond these attempts
to self express
Rain rain rain
I’m a slave to utter indulgence
Pain Pain Pain
I’m a sin to who you are
Rain rain rain
I’m a slave to utter indulgence
Who are ya?
We’re gonna have to tear you apart
You don't know who you are
But I'm beginning to learn
You've chained yourself to the gates
Tidal wave behind your face
Let’s find out who we really are
You've sold this perfect gem
To yourself and them
Keep filtering ‘til it's only grey
Hear the despair in waves
Wrinkles come to play
This will be too much truth to escape
We’re gonna have to tear you apart
You don't know who you are
But I'm beginning to learn
You've chained yourself to the gates
Tidal wave behind your face
Let’s find out who we really are
We’re gonna have to tear you apart
You don't know who you are
But I'm beginning to learn
You've chained yourself to the gates
Tidal wave behind your face
Let’s find out who we really are
Stripped away, look now we are the same
Two old children tired of hurting
Foundations built out of bandages
Come and examine this
shields aren’t protecting us
Anymore
We are all forged from pain
Both of us scarred in shame
Let’s swear off, these shackles and scars
Come let us tear ourselves apart
Become the light in the dark

Dispated, emasculated
Not knowing what a man is,
got me jaded
Now Quiet, but no not sated
Cast out by the world we created
Degredate the fuel, strip the foundation
You’ve cut away the hand,
along with the poison
Demonize, and despise it all away
In the dark ablaze, I’ll stand
And be the fire, burning bright,
I’ll wear the weight upon my own
When there’s no one else, here in the dark
There will come a day when a
hero needs to die for you
I’ll battle and bleed alone
so you’ll never need to
Assimilated
Emasculated
Castrati saturated, aggravated
Bloodsweat and the life is paid in
The Picks, swords,
And bullets we were bathed in
Castrate the warrior, here’s your consequence
Discard the fuel, while prosperus
Naive and blind in prosperity
We paid the price and we built the feast
Demonize, and despise our guardians
In the dark ablaze, I’ll stand
and be the fire, burning bright,
I’ll wear the weight upon my own
When there’s no one else, here in the dark
There will come a day when a
hero needs to die for you
I’ll battle and bleed alone
so you’ll never need to
And be the fire, burning bright,
I’ll wear the weight upon my own
When there’s no one else, here in the dark
There will come a day when a
hero needs to die for you
I’ll battle and bleed alone
so you’ll never need to

Let me paint you the picture, it’ll feel just like a movie
Feel like the Princess your daddy always called ya
Here you come now unbeknownst, and let me take your coat
Provider of the spectacle you yearn for
I can teach you to empathize, have you ‘pologize
Suddenly it’ll feel just like your duty
You’ll want me til your grave
I’ll return when I crave
Another taste another night
Can you feel that, control, you think you have it, but oh god no no no no no
No longer even a game, but you can’t help but play,come yearn for my desire
She, her, they’re all the same, got a different face and a different name
Let me play this song almost as well as I play you
She, her, they’re all the same, got a different face in a different place
Let me play this song almost as well as I play you
I’ve got you owned, the roots are sown, I’ve got the confidence you’ll never know
What I believe, you’ll start to see, even when its cracks its your reality

Pull me,
current no ballast
I have no way
too scared to lead or follow,
I'm potential decayed
Here I fall
Can you see me fall
Warming, the gun metal upon my lips
Truth meaning use and purpose,
what did I miss
What am I Alive for
What do I have to die for
Here I fall
no purpose to,
fight and lose,
or risk anything,
what's my use to this world
without you
There's a reaping soon,
they got god too
when we made nothing matter
that's all it took
There's a reaping soon,
they got god too
x2
There's a reaping soon,
we got god too
x2
