lyrics

The same decrepit pavement walks
perverted messages on sidewalk’s chalk up
every laugh has purpose up till its end
n’ so why, oh why, am I still here
Afoul amongst the joys, and fears
just culminate until the real lies

All my life
I’ve felt alone
Nothing’s fine
When you’re the one left behind
I came around
But no one’s home
Who am I
Without anyone to love

If life is nothing more
Than nothing less than finding strength in meaning (then)
why would you ignore how you’ve been blessed
abhorring strength in feeling
when minds that dig in the past
have yielded nothing but regret in the end
your tears are no more
than nothingness
just like the sunlight fleets you're
(simply bleeding)

Wake every morning with this paint on my face
As I touch prints on the mirror just in case
I disassociate from who I am
While we rinse and attempt trying over again
With a burden that’s so hard to bear
The chalk is smashed all over the stairs
I had a friend but you’re no longer there
A message writ in spite that

All my life
I’ve felt alone
Nothin’s fine
When you’re the one left behind
I came around
But no one’s home
Who am I
Without anyone to love

Cuz’ if life is nothing more
What’d you expect
Than less what you made
If I could politely suggest
You should do more
Then you will find your mean
Since I living in the past
Have nothing but regret
And no sense of feeling
If my infinite regress
Is voice for your choice of healing
Fuck your feelings

I know something of emptiness
I’ve struggled with it all my life
When the damage feels beyond repair
I see things from your side
This is impossible
I can’t hate you anymore

If life is nothing more
than nothing less
than finding strength in meaning
why spend all our lives
living to die
if there is something more
