Lyrics

We scratch these walls that we have built
 This disbelief is useless
 We pull these stakes we've driven in
 And I'm pumped dry, can you see it?
 WE fade to black and I'm giving in
 My blood, it spills on the city
 I'm ripped apart, back at the beginning
 Can I say?
 ♪
 This confession of the heart will bleed until its end
 If we ever see the beginning
 My throat is dried out, much like my patience
 And your nails are digging in
 As my ribcage cracks and I exhale this dying breath
 I see your face
 See your face
 And I see that perfect smile fade
 These bones I keep in my closet keep me from the skin that is clinging to me
 Not sure of what were the best days, and everything in between seems obsolete
 I feel I'm grounded with this weight that is breathing down my neck
 I'm paralyzed with no confirmation of hope yet
 But the world will tease until all eyes are on me
 With this bitter taste dripping off of my teeth
 My bloody hands struggling to come clean
 I've bled out all my reasoning
 And I've watched your syllables subside
 But for good measure this time I'll smile
 Until my teeth are rotting gums
 Until I lose my fucking mind
 ♪
 I heard you're doing great, I'm doing just fine
 The blood these knuckles have spared hasn't helped me wrap my head around this
 And from the water's edge, I'm losing mine in the shallow end
 I'm the one in the back with fingernails in my eyes
 It took me years to see the situation fit
 Don't look now as I fake a smile, a thought, memory when I don't give a shit
 ♪
 I've said this all before
 I've said it loud enough
 And I've said it a thousand times
 So we scratch these walls that we have built
 This disbelief is useless
 We pull these stakes we've driven in
 And I'm pumped dry, can you see it?
 WE fade to black and I'm giving in
 My blood, it spills on the city
 I'm ripped apart, back at the beginning
 Can I say?
 ♪
 My veins are hallowed down in a drop like a pump you never even saw coming
 These last days and this blackened heart has ceased to beat
 Won't even start pumping
 I always feel like I'm waiting around for tomorrow
 These eyes can't see what's lying right there in front of me
 What's lying right there in front of me
 And these walls all crumble to the ground
 The sky is red and its coming down
 I will never come down
 I will never come down
 We scratch these walls that we have built
 But this time I am letting go
 This time I am letting go
 We pull these stakes we've driven in
 But this time I am letting go
 Say you black our tomorrows
 We scratch these walls that we have built
 But this time I am letting go
 This time I am letting go
 We pull these stakes we've driven in
 But this time I am letting go
 Fade to black our tomorrows
