lyrics

Burn and writhe in those self-imposed chains
You wear them like a badge of honor
A solid facade can only get you so far with me
I slowly creep inside, fill your soul with doubt
Your existence is meaningless to me, I am the darkness surrounding
I find solace in the deepest corners of loneliness
Your one true friend, I'm here to stay
Strangled in my bitter cold embrace
Pull back from everyone you love
They'll only rip you apart in the end
Leave your mind melting in your head and
Dripping out onto the floor you call your home
Keep your composure, this life isn't over
It has only just begun
Lose touch with your insanity
An empty shell is all you have become
Throw it all away, you'll never amount to anything
You’re going under, you’re going under
Fall away, to the gray pavement surrounding
This fallacy, is mine to take away
I am your one true deity, your idol bathed in misery
You can't escape me, you can't escape me
I am your one true deity, the plague on the face of everyone you meet
You'll never replace me, this is your new state of mind
Keep your composure, it has only just begun
This life isn't over, you reach for the stars but get swallowed by the sun
