Somewhat Damaged
So impressed with all you do.
Tried so hard to be like you.
Flew too high and burnt the wing.
Lost my faith in everything.
Lick around divine debris.
Taste the wealth of hate in me.
Shedding skin succumb defeat.
This machine is obsolete.
Made the choice to go away.
Drink the fountain of decay.
Tear a hole exquisite red.
Fuck the rest and stab it dead.
Broken bruised forgotten sore.
Too fucked up to care anymore.
Poisoned to my rotten core.
Too fucked up to care anymore.
In the back off the side far away is a place where I hide where I.
Stay tried to say tried to ask I needed to all alone by myself where were you?.
How could I ever think it�s funny how everything that.
Swore it wouldn�t change is different now just like you.
Would always say we�ll make it through then my head fell apart.
And where were you?.
How could I ever think it�s funny how everything you swore would.
Never change is different now like you said you and me make it.
Through didn�t quite fell apart.
Where the fuck were you?.
The Day the World Went Away
I�d listen to the words he�d say.
But in his voice I heard decay.
The plastic face forced to portray.
All the insides left cold and gray.
There is a place that still remains.
It eats the fear it eats the pain.
The sweetest price he�ll have to pay.
The day the whole world went away.
Na na nah.
Na na na, nah.
Na na nah.
Na na na, nah.
The Frail
Instrumental
The Wretched
Just a reflection.
Just a glimpse.
Just a little reminder.
Of all the what abouts.
And all the might have.
Could have beens.
Another day.
Some other way.
But not another reason to continue.
And now you�re one of us.
The wretched.
The hopes and prays.
The better days.
The far aways.
Forget it.
It didn�t turn out the way you wanted it to.
It didn�t turn out the way you wanted it, did it?.
It didn�t turn out the way you wanted it to.
It didn�t turn out the way you wanted it, did it?.
Now you know.
This is what it feels like.
Now you know.
This is what it feels like.
The clouds will part and the sky cracks open.
And god himself will reach down his fucking arm through.
Just to push you down.
Just to hold you down.
Stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss.
And it�s hard to believe it could come down to this.
Back at the beginning.
Sinking.
Spinning.
And in the end.
We still pretend.
The time we spend.
Not knowing when.
You�re finally free.
And you could be.
But it didn�t turn out the way you wanted it to.
It didn�t turn out quite the way that you wanted it.
Now you know.
This is what it feels like.
Now you know.
This is what it feels like.
You can try to stop it but it keeps on coming.
You can try to stop it but.
We're in This Together
I�ve become impossible.
Holding on to when.
When everything seemed to matter more.
The two of us.
All used and beaten up.
Watching fate as it flows down the path we have chose.
You and me.
We�re in this together now.
None of them can stop us now.
We will make it through somehow.
You and me.
If the world should break in two.
Until the very end of me.
Until the very end of you.
Awake to the sound as they peel apart the skin.
They pick and they pull.
Trying to get their fingers in.
Well they�ve got to kill what we found.
Well they�ve got to hate what they fear.
Well they�ve got to make it go away.
Well they�ve got to make it disappear.
The farther I fall I�m beside you.
As lost as I get I will find you.
The deeper the wound I�m inside you.
For ever and ever I am a part of.
You and me.
We�re in this together now.
None of them can stop us now.
We will make it through somehow.
You and me.
If the world should break in two.
Until the very end of me.
Until the very end of you.
All that we were is gone we have to hold on.
All the we were is gone we have to hold on.
When all our hope is gone we have to hold on.
All that we were is gone but we can hold on.
You and me.
We�re in this together now.
None of them can stop us now.
We will make it through somehow.
You and me.
Even after everything.
You�re the queen and I�m the king.
Nothing else means anything.
The Fragile
She shines.
In a world full of ugliness.
She matters.
When everything is meaningless.
Fragile.
She doesn�t see her beauty.
She tries to get away.
Sometimes.
It�s just that nothing seems worth saving.
I can�t watch her slip away.
I won�t let you fall apart.
She reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by.
Hoping someone can see.
If I could fix myself I�d �.
But it�s too late for me.
I won�t let you fall apart.
We�ll find the perfect place where we can run and hide.
I�ll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side.
�But they keep waiting.
�And picking�.
It�s something I have to do.
I was there, too.
Before everything else.
I was like you.
Just Like You Imagined
Instrumental
Even Deeper
I woke up today.
To find myself in the other place.
With a trail of my footprints.
From where I ran away.
It seems everything I�ve heard.
Just might be true.
And you know me.
(Well I think you do).
Sometimes, I have everything �.
Yet I wish I felt something.
Do you know how far this has gone?.
Just how damaged have I become?.
When I think I can overcome.
It runs even deeper.
And in a dream I�m a different me.
With a perfect you.
We fit perfectly.
And for once in my life I feel complete �.
And I still want to ruin it.
Afraid to look.
As clear as day.
This plan has long been underway.
I hear them call.
I cannot stay.
The voice inviting me away.
Do you know how far this gone?.
Just how damaged have I become?.
When I think I can overcome.
It runs even deeper.
Everything that matters is gone.
All the hands of hope have withdrawn.
Could you try to help me hang on?.
It runs�.
I�m straight.
I won�t crack.
On my way.
And I can�t turn back.
I�m okay.
I�m on track.
On my way.
And I can�t turn back.
I stayed.
On this track.
Gone too far.
And I can�t come back.
I stayed.
On this track.
Lost my way.
Can�t come back.
Pilgrimage
Instrumental
No, You Don't
Smiling in their faces.
While filling up the hole.
So many dirty little places.
In your filthy little worn out.
Broken down see through soul.
Baby�s got a problem.
Tries so hard to hide.
Got to keep it on the surface.
Because everything else is dead on the other side.
Teeth in the necks of everyone you know.
You can keep on sucking until the blood won�t flow.
When it starts to hurt it only helps it grow.
Taking all you need.
(But not this time).
No, you don�t.
And just for the record.
Just so you know.
I did not believe.
That you could sink so low.
You think that you can beat them.
I know that you won�t.
You think you have everything.
But no, you don�t.
No, you don�t.
No, you don�t.
No, you don�t.
No, you don�t.
La Mer
And when the day arrives.
I�ll become the sky.
And I�ll become the sea.
And the sea will come to kiss me.
For I am going.
Home.
Nothing can stop me now.
The Great Below
Staring at the sea.
Will she come?.
Is there hope for me.
After all is said and done.
Anything at any price.
All of this for you.
All the spoils of a wasted life.
All of this for you.
All the world has closed her eyes.
Tired faith all worn and thin.
For all we could have done.
And all that could have been.
Ocean pulls me close.
And whispers in my ear.
The destiny I�ve chose.
All becoming clear.
The currents have their say.
The time is drawing near.
Washes me away.
Makes me disappear.
I descend from grace.
In arms of undertow.
I will take my place.
In the great below.
I can still feel you.
Even so far away.
So impressed with all you do.
Tried so hard to be like you.
Flew too high and burnt the wing.
Lost my faith in everything.
Lick around divine debris.
