i'm so afraid of what you have to say, 'cause i am quiet now and silence gives you space.

our brains are sick but that's okay.

you think twice about your life, it probably happens at night right? fight it. take the pain, ignite it.

we're broken, we're broken, we're broken, we're broken people, we're broken people.

entertain my faith.

i'm trying, i'm trying to sleep, but i can't, but i can't when you all have guns for hands, yeah.

(yeah-yeah-yeah)

i'm pleading, "please, oh please!" on my knees repeatedly asking why it's got to be like this? is this living free?

stay alive, stay alive for me.

my mind ship-wrecked, this is the only land my mind could find, i did not know it was such a violent island, bullet tidal waves, suicidal crazed lions.

when the sun is climbing window sills, and the silver lining rides the hills, i will be saved for one whole day until the sun makes the hills its grave.

i can feel your breath, i can feel my death.

i go up, up, up, up, up to the ceiling then i feel my soul start leaving like an old man's hair receding.

i will rise and stand my ground, waiting for the night's return.

i find it hard to hide it, my pride is no longer inside, it's on my sleeve, my skin will scream reminding me of who i killed inside my dream.

you'll have to watch me struggle from several rooms away. but tonight, i'll need you to stay.

the night falls, with gravity.

i must've forgot, you can't trust me, i'm open a moment and close when you show it, before you know it, i'm lost at sea.

i can't see past my own nose, i'm seeing everything in slo-mo.

i'm brewing and losing and spewing and fusing and believe me, that's what all the kids are doing.

i'm semi-automatic.

i'm standing in front of you. i'm standing in front of you.

and i'll fall down, and i'll break down, and i'll fake you out, all i wanna.

i'm afraid to tell you who i adore, won't tell you who i'm singing towards, metaphorically, i'm a whore, and that's denial number four.

i'm semi-automatic.

not anymore, flesh out the door SWAT!

i swear i heard demons yelling, those crazy words they were spelling. they told me i was gone, they told me i was gone.

i'll stay awake 'cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight.

'cause sometimes to stay alive, you gotta kill your mind.

it ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat.

i'm never what i like, i'm double-sided.

it's the same game today as it always is, i don't give these places fake my name explaining this.

they fill with fire, exhale desire, i know it's dire, my time today.

i know where you stand, silent in the trees.

and since we know that dreams are dead, and life turns plans up on their head, i will plan to be a bum so i just might become someone.

i go up, up, up, up, up to the ceiling then i feel my soul start leaving like an old man's hair receding.

thank god it's friday 'cause fridays will always be better than sundays 'cause sundays are my suicide days.

it's the same game today as it always is, i don't give these places fake my name explaining this.

and i just can't hide, i kinda like it when i make you cry 'cause i'm twisted up, i'm twisted up, inside.

our brains are sick but that's okay.

i hope i'm not my only friend.

our brains are sick but that's okay.

i do not have writer's block, my writer just hates the clock.

and the wrists of my mind have the bleeding lines that remind me of all the times i have committed dirty, dirty crimes that are perfectly form-fitted to what i've done and what i'm doing.

and i will say that we should take a day to break away from all the pain our brain has made, the game is not played alone.

lean with it, rock with it, when we gonna stop with the lyrics that mean nothing? we were gifted with thought. is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat? it ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat.

i'm trying to be so cool, everything together trying to be so cool.

sometimes, quiet is violent.

you think twice about your life, it probably happens at night right? fight it. take the pain, ignite it.

they're trying to eat me, blood running down their chin.
