Sinking

Can't quit the vices I need to stay afloat
A sinking ship
I'll always come up short
The repairs weren't enough,
Leaking blood
All that's left are splintered pieces on her shores
Hating myself
Losing all sense of worth
can you turn the blade on yourself
when you've crossed the line
Make it the last fucking time?
Be your own judge
Skip the jury
Go straight to the knife?
I met the devil
She asked me to come inside
Fingers crossed
Should've learned my lesson when the wounds turned to scars
It's been years
Can't believe I've come this far
Waiting
Standing at the precipice
The ocean floor calls my name
Rusted, I've lost my color
The things I could've done
Eating me alive
Eating me alive
Thought I'd hit the bottom before
I was wrong
I was wrong
I could suffer so much fucking more
Rotting away
My bones decay
Darkness was everything
And I was nothing
I was nothing
I'm sinking, I'm drowning
I'm sinking, I'm drowning
Sinking
Drowning
I'm sinking, I'm drowning
I'm sinking, I'm drowning

Take a Walk

Take a walk
Take a walk with me
Take a walk with me!
Feeling weightless
Like you have it all figured out
Until someone stabs you from behind,
Leaving you to fight for air,
Wasted time,
A cycle that always repeats itself
I should fail again and feel pain
At least then I can say I tried,
Picking up the pieces,
Pushing everyone away
making sure to leave behind any shard that belongs to you
Shattered and belligerent,
this can't be,
this can't be
Detached not alone,
I haven't felt anything in weeks maybe months.
Everything kind of blends in when you're numb.
Wherever it is, just drop me off at home.
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way!
The blind leading the blind
Right back to the pain we both tried to escape
Maybe it's too little too late to say
No amount of time can make this go away
Take a walk with me!
Take a walk with me

Drowning

Take a look from the outside
Gain some perspective
You want so much more
But I...
I couldn't care less
winning or losing
With nothing in return
Self serving hypocrite
Half truths are your currency
You've paved roads over the backs of your friends
It's time,
It's way past fucking time
You met your end
Sick of eating your lies,
I wish I could get back all the time
Fucking wasted
We don't need you
You need us
Can't even calculate the cost,
Using people up,
Always keeping score
Making sure you leave enough behind
To use some more!
We're used to promises paid in blood
I hope you drown motherfucker
I hope you snap your fucking neck
Finally worn out your welcome
Two faced piece of shit
