[Verse 1]
Think of these thoughts as hackneyed and trite
Clichéd, depraved, disturbing and contrived
Shallow, cold, wretched. miserable, dark and any other adjective
[Verse 2]
Choose to sit safely out of the sun
Away from rays so blinding to the eye
Singing songs someone's already sung
Averting gaze from beautiful light
[Verse 3]
But as complacency settles, anxieties will rise
And part this Soul as Jekyll parted Hyde
Now I'm but half of a hollow man's lies
The love, the hate, the emotional side
[Bridge]
What's the point in trying if this end result of dying
Sits persistently encloaked in dimness
Life can't thrive controlled by digits
[Verse 4]
"I know I'm weak
I know that I'm vile
But sometimes that is needed to survive"
That's what I'll say to rationalize
"I'm needed if we're to stay alive"
And yet, here I lie with black, sunken eyes
My Mind's consigned our sighs to a leaden void
The Soul remains tempered, I remain plied
Condemned ‘til we are both all but destroyed
