Lyrics
No one here to fear Nothing left to feel Little echoes in my head that tell me none of them are real No more fire in the heat No afflictions left to heal When all the liars and the thieves are out of fiction left to steal So once more into the fray Where we brutalize the future while we euthanize the day We'll crucify intruders and their euphemizing traits I'll bring my anger long as you provide the hate And I am not alone I can hear the footsteps in the attic And the voices in my head are enigmatic apparatus I am home Scribbling on your illustrated sadness With my insulating habits While you imitate the madness on your own So give me something I can see through When you lie between your teeth and wonder why they don't believe you They don't need you So go ahead and tie the strand that leads you by the neck 'Cause you were too afraid to bite the hand that feeds you And I'm still searching for the careless In a mixture of barbiturates and lack of self awareness My muses are promiscuously dancing in the bareness With the cynics that meticulously asterisk my merits So generic I wonder if I'll ever be the same When I've abandoned who I am but still the memory remains The blood is on my hands and I can never clean the stains And I've been running out of enemies to blame, blame... It's what you wasted on yourself 'til your gone You never made it to the end of the night And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life It's what you waste on your dreams 'til they're gone They never made it to the end of the night And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life ♪ If they took away the shame Would you still feel unaccepted? When they let you play their game you'll never win Would you expect it? If they knew you were to blame Would you still feel so unaffected I neglect to be afraid but your afraid to be neglected I don't think you have a soul So I guess you're like the rest of us Together all alone collecting dust with no one left to trust We measure up to nothing While we reach for what we'll never clutch An exodus and all we left behind us was this exit dust And now I bet you wish you were there to escape The sinister errors in the wake Of innocent prayers that you make Another promise you can't fix or repair when it breaks They salivate your losses while they spit the despair in your face How does it taste? Is it sweeter than a melody Or sour like the power you devour with your jealousy? 'Cause hour after hour you can cower overzealously But nothings gonna stop us when I drag you back to hell with me And it's to late to say goodbye Because your dreams already found a place to curl up when they die And I will let this irony inside of me survive As long as violent environments remind me I'm alive And I'm alive... I'm throwing caution to the wind So I can watch it blow away with all my consequencial friends They're gone but not forgotten While they're rotten from within I wanna wash the fucking toxin from my skin, skin... It's what you wasted on yourself 'til your gone You never made it to the end of the night And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life It's what you waste on your dreams 'til they're gone They never made it to the end of the night And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
