lyrics

Repetition repetition
Is fucking killing me
I feel like I can’t breath

I’m pacing around this room
Trying to find meaning
I know I’ll never see

But when freedom amounts to this
And I’m barred from taking initiative
Do I even exist

These dreams offer no relief
From the backdrop
Of these human beliefs

You’ll notice when I disappear
The house undeniably cold
But I taught you never to fear
Growing up is not growing old

Strategically I interfere
With what transpires up above
No longer requiring air
I’m forfeiting all of my love

At first I did not want to care
But now I cannot care enough
Now I cannot care enough

You think that you know what it’s like
To have no one sit by your side
But I challenge you to sit in a dark room
Right in front of the mirror tonight

And the things that you feel deep inside
Are the things that I could never hide

And I live with knowledge that I will be burned
So that I won’t be buried alive

My freedom amounts to this
My lack of initiative
I’m not convinced that I exist

These dreams offer no escape
The backdrop of these mistakes
Are all left here in my wake

I know you think I’m wrong
I’m telling you I’m right
But my lack of pride will restrict me
And help keep me safe tonight
And I’m sorry that I failed
But my life became derailed
