Take me down to where the world ends, down past the river bend.
I'm a fool, this town doesn't need me to cry, it only needs me to try.
My lonely heart can't light the way, for all those that follow without a say.
Everyone speak up, shout while you can, soon no one will understand.

I am not the image you should turn to, I'm a lie just like you.
Surely you know I'm a fraud, simply a false god.

Never pray to me, I can't save you, I can't even save me.
Open your mouth and scream, doesn't it hurt when you kill your dream?
Take a tic tac before the tic tock...

I am but a name
Taped shame
All the same

Not an identity
Sink see
Going down slowly

The rest
Second best
Failed test

At the end of a measure
Lost my treasure
A name has no pleasure

A stitched
Getting hitched
Getting ditched

Heart in my lung
I can't be sung
I'm undone

My heart beat
Cheats
Going to sleep

Is liquid
Putrid
And frigid

My mind is gears
And fears
But never tears

Since Murder is illegal
And freedom
Is lethal

It looks...

One night and one more story and I can't feel my brain.
Swallow me whole please, just so I don't have to feel.
I don't wish to ever feel this way again.
Hold me close while I hold still.

Hold on, stay strong, don't give up, I'm alone.
Hold up, stay given away, don't continue on. I'm surrounded.
But in people that don't care I'm drownin'.
Is this feeling unfounded?

With skin like broken glass, and a heart still intact. She carefully breaks the surface.
Her pulse runs far too fast and she knows she can last. But she carries on.
She's patching up her mask, tonight she feels abstract. There is no purpose.
Now she can't go back, she holds a blade she forgot to retract. Now she's just gone.
