Another day to push everything away
Another excuse to watch everything decay
Spread some more shit just to reel you in
Is this how the healing will begin
Shut your mouth and give me what I want
Or should I just stay here to haunt
The gritting teeth move into grind
This is the part where you get left behind
Faces, blood and bone will fade away
Pieces fall apart where they may
The lines are blurred and the foundations break
It's getting too damn easy just to fake
Everything around just bleeds into one
I'm the final bullet in the gun
Faces, blood and bone will fade away
Pieces fall apart where they may
Keep your eyes closed and breathe slowly
Just like a moment of clarity
Go ahead and let the world disappear
The moments of silence are just a fucking rarity

Just look where you are
You never seem to get too far
Back to the shit from whence you came
(I know, I know) it's just a fucking shame
This run of the sickness
Reoccurrence of hopelessness
Started up again too soon
But you've never been immune
Not like it mattered before
Not even like you care any more
Just grit your teeth into chalk
Break the key off in the lock
You always end up back here
Just when you thought you were clear
Another decision turned into mistake
I can't even tell if you're awake
Find yourself afraid and lost
The same path despite the cost
How are you back here again
Just shut up and take me in
Just let me consume you
Just shut up and take me in
Just let me consume you
Just shut up and take me in
Just let me consume you
Just shut up and take me in
Let me consume you
You probably think it's a game
The ending always stays the same
Try to make some sort of difference
I feed on your ignorance
Who's the separate entity
I'll just turn you into me
Right of passage into hate
How can't you anticipate
Find yourself afraid and lost
The same path despite the cost
How are you back here again
I'm no lost cause or someone for you to damn
I don't care where you or I think I am
I'm not about to live up to your decay
Let's make the wound and drain your poison away
Find yourself afraid and lost
The same path despite the cost
How are you back here again

Well, there I go again.
Walking further away, as if to find a way out of this place (as if it even matters anyway).
Did you ever stop to think you put yourself here?
Convincing yourself of a world that isn't or never was?
How much of this is even real and how much of you is there left?
Try tearing yourself away just to find some truth in the matter, when the truth is you're just more influenced than you allow yourself to believe.
They'll find out, you know.
Then this little game will fall apart.
What happens next?
Avoid everything at the expense of this hole you've burrowed into?
The lines begin to curl, bringing everything back to where you started.
How much of this is even real?
If you haven't woken up yet, then maybe we're really here.
I don't believe I've seen you around here before.
Maybe you've already settled in, I don't know anymore.
I swear I know your skin, I swear I know your face.
The pictures I've seen before are just an empty space.
You're speaking in tongues, I think I know what it means.
I think I know where you've been hiding behind the scenes.
You're just a ghost with my blood in your veins.
Your tainted touch left these stains.
Allow yourself to stay,
You aren't welcome here,
It's almost like a ritual,
Now I have something to fear.

Well it's all come back to this.
Every single moment, every single time, everything circles back to you.
I was almost my own entity, but this is the way it's meant to be.
One step out of the mud and suddenly you sink back into it again.
Relief, if only for a moment
But I know you weren't far away.
This road is one big circle, you were never meant to leave.
I can fight until I bleed out, skin so raw that the nerves shatter.
Not like it was any use, you've always kind of been there.
I couldn't imagine it any other way.
Our blood, our skin, everything lines up evenly, you're just another part of me.
I can't say that I'm surprised, that doesn't mean that I welcome you.
Now the transition starts again, if only you were dead
There has to be another way.
I foolishly let this hope build up.
Hoping to see another face, but there's only room for us.
Now that path comes back around again, we can continue purgatory.
Don't look back once you walk away, you'll see me again soon enough.
It never ends
(I'll always be back here again)
Back to the beginning
(I wish it would end here)
Exhausted and just full of shit, I won't take another step.
But something always drags me forward, even while I beg for it to stop.
But of course it's always been you fighting only turns me into.
Your acceptance turns you into me, same old shit for eternity
Ending us so nothing continues on, leaving no choice since the hope is gone.
But I know that I'm stronger, built with a hardened resistance.
So let's push on again, something in you will finally break.
And when it does I will leave you to rot.
The ending will come for better or for worse.
It never ends
(I'll always be back here again)
Back to the beginning
(I wish it would end here)
It never ends
(I'll always be back here again)
Back to the beginning
(I wish it would end here)
It never ends
I'll always be back here again
Back to the beginning
I wish this would end here
