lyrics

When I close my eyes
I see my demons staring back at me
And actually
I've been dreaming of
All these wasted apologies
And honestly
I've been trampled by fears
For the past two years

I self destruct more than I'll ever hide
When the curtains close I'm just a little child inside

When I close my eyes
I glimpse a face in front of me
It's haunting me
I've been dreaming of
All my insecurities
Impurity
I've been trampled by fears
For the past two years

I self destruct more than I'll ever hide
When I see her smile I die a little bit inside

So wish away compulsions
On a vicodin star
Bury the obsessions
Under organics in a mason jar
Drown me in a sea of smoke
Tidal waves transform to foam
After time the blow subsides
I lay crippled and alone

The cold hard truth
Wakes me from my slumber
And your putrid lies
I ran out of number
A generation raised in hate
A subtle violence I can't relate
As you ruminate on your mistakes

The most bitter words
Are spoken by the sweetest people
Filled with hurt
As you preach your hate
You are a sacred apple
Spewing your thoughts to the chapel
When I close my eyes
I'm dreaming that this time will be
My final sleep
