In Darkness

I have been hurt by others And I will hurt them I will make them suffer Like I have suffered I can see Why you felt the way you did When you're seconds from the end Do you think of me? Or is it all the same? Did you walk through the walls? Were you ever here at all? Is it empty black? Or is it all the same? My open wound Heavy hand from a heavy head I was there and didn't see With a single blow He wiped it all away You've bit right through your tongue So who here's at fault? What a fucked up question My open wound It scabs again But it never heals over My open wound Draped around me All for your entertainment Is it artful drowning? Or a gross exaggeration Of a higher power still watching over? I don't think so But it's just a waste of thought Because I don't believe in God I can't separate it from the rest It's such a fucking shame That unless we shared a past Or it's the apple of my eye It still wouldn't change a thing It's a sad, sad truth But we all come to terms My open wound It scabs again But it never heals over My open wound Draped around me All for your entertainment I can't separate it from the rest And you say it's such a shame You say it's a waste of thought Because I don't believe in God Between you and me Who am I to be saved? I don't want to be alive

Forcing through this hole My spirit weak A shadow feels familiar I guess I live in its wake The weight of what you've done Towers above me Its shadow grows and stretches Farther than my eyes can see In darkness, I In darkness, why always me? Why not you Or someone else for a change? Stuck in the dark (In darkness, I In darkness, why always me? Why not you Or someone else for a change?) In darkness, I In darkness, why always me? Why not you Or someone else for a change? In darkness, I In darkness, why always me? Stuck in the dark Why always me?

Wound, I suffocate, in darkness, bleeding All based from fear All the result of simple, old-fashioned fear You see, because when it- when it grips It holds you so fucking tight You start to notice your own breathing All of a sudden, it's off-rhythm You become aware of your own fucking sweat And it's all cold It's cold Just thought you should know

South of one And peace just never comes It would seem we meet again Under better circumstance You'd be dead if it were up to me Lucky you, I suppose South of fucking one And peace just never comes And you forget I walked this earth It would seem to be a waste A ghost in the machine What's under the surface? It would seem it's time to go Well, I thought it'd never come And you forget I walked this earth South of one And peace just never comes South of one Was it really just for this? Just a fucking game You forget I walked this earth What would you know? And you You're just staring at the sun hoping to find God South of one Was it really all just for this? South of one Was it all for nothing? South of one Was it all for this? South of one It all amounts to nothing

Stuck in a rut With nowhere to go Obstacles keep me Inside this hole Spinning around and around we go I can't tell what's true Why do we spend our entire life Just living, searching for more? The challenge I see It spins in my head Around and around it goes I don't see the point To deny the truth When pain is an illogical thing What would I gain From a fraction of the truth If I hate the taste? Tearing my insides out for you It's just logical harm Underestimating subtleties In darkness I find I taste it still inside of my teeth I don't want more Reason to doubt Or reason to live At this point I'm tearing my insides out for you It's just logical harm Underestimating subtleties In darkness I find Tearing my insides out for you It's just logical harm Underestimating subtleties In darkness I find I don't see the point To deny the truth When pain is an illogical thing

So it's me against myself And I guess you really wouldn't ever understand What it's like to be me In this fucked-up world With a fucked-up past Don't want to feel anything again (Promise me this, you'll still carry my name) What I'd do to never lose you Oh, it's such a scary thought From such a scary place Oh, what I wouldn't do (Oh, what I wouldn't do) Anything could be true Just tell me (Just tell me) It all meant something more Just tell me (Just tell me) It's more that I can hope for Just tell me that it meant something more And it meant more that I can hope for So it's me against myself And I guess you really wouldn't ever understand What it's like to be me In this fucked-up world With a fucked-up past Don't want to feel anything again Your pain is mine Where the fuck do you think it came from? Where does the sadness come from? When does the sadness go away? Where does it go? What I'd do to never lose you Oh, it's such a scary thought From such a scary place Oh, what I wouldn't do (Oh, what I wouldn't do) Anything could be true Where does the sadness come from? When does the sadness go away?

It's the straw that breaks my back The hammer to the nail Oh, I would find a way But it's the little things that kill The last splinter in my fucking skin Reminder of my sins This space is vacant Not an ounce of love To be found here Or anywhere else A sick facade in my eyes I'm in disbelief You should feel ashamed This space is vacant Not an ounce of love To be found here Or anywhere else A sick facade in my eyes I'm in disbelief You should feel ashamed The last splinter in my fucking skin Reminder of my sins Everyone lets me down Every day, it's on repeat The last splinter in my fucking skin Everyone lets me down Every day, it's on repeat Every day, it's on repeat So pick a fucking side The last splinter in my fucking skin The last thing I feel when it fucking ends The last splinter in my fucking skin And it's the very last thing That I feel when it fucking ends

I don't want to watch this die I don't want to watch it waste away Again, you lie Oh, and I bet you thought I wouldn't catch you I've got you right inside my grasp Just fucking try to escape (Try to escape) I've got you right inside my grasp And I eat your fucking hate This fear grips But when it looks right at me Oh, it spells out your name And that has to count for something Unless there's nothing left to gain Oh, you're choking on an empty stomach Force-fed I've got you right inside my grasp Just fucking try to escape I've got you right inside my grasp And I eat your fucking hate I hear my death song Oh, it's the sweetest sound Can you hear it? Can you feel it? I hear my death song It's the sweetest sound Can you hear it? Oh, can you feel it? I hear my death song Can't you hear it? Can't you feel it? I hear my death song Oh, it's just the sweetest sound I hear my death song It's just the sweetest fucking sound Can't you hear it? Can't you feel it?

In my twenty-five years You could say I've learned a lot Of how not to be In this fucked up world What do you see (What do you see) What do you see in this for you? It's a maze It's a challenge What do you see in this for you? What do you see in this for me? And I'd say it again But you don't even listen Almost twenty-five years And you haven't learned enough Time waits for no one It's a maze It's a challenge What do you see in this for you? What do you see in this for me?
