lyrics

Let's take turns to see how bad it can get
Self fulfilling prophecies show me just how empty I am
A repeated diatribe: a story of failure
I don't try to better myself and devour my anger
My guts rot, all I do is drag my corpse
Regurgitating words that mean nothing to you.
Floating on forms I don't question anymore
Please don't be honest with me
Feathering a nest, but choking on dirt
I can't grieve
Let's take turns to see how bad things can get
Let your friends deal with the rest of your shit
I was once able to close my eyes
And imagine what my future might hold
Now I can't even bring myself
To imagine anything at all
Everything’s fallow, everything's fake
Each promise I make proves false in the end
Vomit up lies, choke on regret
Abandon your family and friends
Here lies the boy who wept for no one
And whom no one will weep for
Here is the place where I buried the questions
That I wanted to ask
Here are the people I hinder
That understand I'm something awful
Here are the hopes that I held onto, with wishes that they might bloom
Less than nothing, choking on dirt
