Deconstructing Self‐Destruction

I close off the madness Black out the unseen All static I ignore Cease sending through the feed Oh I thought I was clear that we would never coincide You chose to gamble but I’m free to choose my side Contemplate self-destruction Pyrogenic people deviate Malevolent minds breeds this infection Decimate until nothing remains Now you’re feeling like you wanna give it up Now you’re looking for a better life You try to take the ups and downs Give in to the ride Find a way you’ll never get a second chance Fuck ‘em all and only follow your own plans To get to your own end Live as if you might never die High standing on the doorway Burnout suffering All chasing wisdom Bleed, flowing ever free Oh I thought I was clear that we would never coincide You chose to gamble but I’m free to choose my side Spiritual belief, an obsession To desecrate your body, mind and soul The punishment of your transgressions Living in the age of the cutthroat Now you’re feeling like you want to give it up Now you’re looking for a better life You try to take the ups and downs Give into the ride Find the way you never get a second chance Fuck ‘em all and only follow your own plans To get to your own end Live as if you might never die Bending contortion Taking shape Hollow and writhing Lay the blame Deep inside I feel Constant chill Rip apart your insides Stretching skin Make me remember that I’m alive Make me remember Make me feel like this life ain’t the only one See you across the river When our time is through ’Til then give in to the ride As if we’ll never die Never die Here’s my sign Live as if you might Born into the fight Never die Here’s my sign Give in to the ride Fire is on my side I’ll never die
