XII.XXI.XII 04:27
I've froze 'til numb. Passed out in the burning sun. And I wouldn't have it any other way. The smell of burning skin, the taste of bloody hands. What's your breaking point? These are the days, these are the days of glory. These are the days that keep you awake. These are the days that keep you in pain. If you don't surrender you'll never regret. You take from this life what you put into it. If you don't keep dreaming you'll fall away from everything you thought you'd be. I watch the walls. They move around me. I hear them speak. I feel them breathing. Spinning again. When life tears you to your knees, you need the ones keeping you standing. Standing, stand on your feet. These are the days that keep you awake. These are the days that keep you in pain. If you don't surrender you'll never regret. You take from this life what you put into it. If you don't keep dreaming, you'll fall asleep. Who do you put before yourself? Who do you cherish? Who do you put before yourself? Who could you love, sickness and health? Or do you know how to love anyone but yourself? But yourself is wanting out tonight. What's keeping you home? What's keeping you home?

I'll never be afraid of the possibility that I am losing my way. You look through my bad intentions. Like I explained, we all know that we all will decay. You have nothing left if you've lost yourself. So keep looking forward, there's only dust left behind.

To The Grave 03:44
You had me by the neck. If you’re a stranger when we meet again, no regrets. Just don’t forget. You were the downfall of adolescence, and I’ve finally made a choice to leave you in the dirt. I'm stronger now than you were. I'm stronger now than ever. Now who's dying? Do your eyes burn? I hope you burn like me. Don't think I won't take this to the grave. This time you won't have the choice to behave. I can't apologize for all your lies. Far past sick and tired. I can't explain this. Far past sick and tired. I am done. I'm coming over and I hope you're with him.

In Sickness 02:47
Help me stay. Help carry me away.

In Health 05:58
Get me out. Get me out of here. Get me lost, oh Guenevere. Show your fangs. Show your heartless hole, I'd rip your eyes from your hollow skull.So naive. We ignore the fear in our hearts. We let the wolves in here. We spoke of love with doubt in our lungs. Speak no trust. Now my mouth is shut. I've misplaced my morals, and I've miscounted my blessings. I'm climbing over corpses. I'm still living hope or hopeless. There's no light that I can see. It's cold but I can breath. Nothing is stopping me. Injured but I'm not weak. The dead is calling me, but I'm not listening. I pray for my ghosts. I pray for my enemies. My mouth is reckless. My body's senseless and I have no control. I lost my heart, I lost my lungs and now I've lost my soul. I might find peace in death just to leave for a while. I might find peace in death just to get you out of my head. I've fallen out of your reach and it is slowly killing me. I am not alive. I'm breathing. I'm not alive. I feel you. But I'm numb inside. I'm breathing but I'm not alive, I'm sleeping. There's no light that I can see. It's cold but I can breathe. I've fallen out of your reach and it is slowly killing me. Help me stay. Help carry me away.

Purgatory 07:40
Moving on. I'm moving on in my life. I'm taking chances under the knife. Open your eyes and take your last second glances. Letting go of who you thought you were. It's not about what you want or what I deserve. Some things will never change. These scars will always hurt. She said take a pill and you might like the taste. My life, my curse is face to face, and I'm free. Free fallin'. Trust in nothing. Wait for no one. 'Cause when it's time to leave this all, I'll leave this all behind. I've been thinking, and I've been dreaming of the day we leave this all. We'll leave this all behind. No remorse. No forgiveness in our hearts. I hope I fall, fall to the lowest spot and lose my head. Let this fuckin' body rot. I'm not quite feeling good, but I'm lovin' bad. There's no returning me to what I had, and I'm free. Free from caring. Free from everything that held me here. I'd rather die than be here. I'm done. I'm out. I'm giving up on everything. Trust in nothing. Wait for no one. 'Cause when it's time to leave this all, I'll leave this all behind. I've been thinking, and I've been dreaming of the day we leave this all. We'll leave this all behind. Think of what you could be, and all the things you would never see. Why would you wait? Why would you stay? There's nothing left. There's nothing left. No faith. Is it your time to leave? And find your heaven. Find your heaven, or die in hell with me. I've seen the sun from the oceans eyes, and I've learned to lose hope in its rise, cause no matter what, the night always falls just in time. No trust in time. I keep searching for something, I keep searching. But I have no place in mind for this body of mine. I've been waiting, saving grace. Have I been searching for something that won't exist? It won't exist. I can't find my heaven.
