lyrics

Chasing stories in my head is forever, I am the King of my own hand severing

Drowning, in the middle of the river. Go away, get away from the devil in my conscience.

My dear I'm a failure, I cant gather with the rest of my pieces in the background, I call to the rhythm, of the crows as they feast on the belly of the beast.

I hear them, when they scream in the night as their picking my bones clean.

I'm tired of the constant bleeding, bloody words come spilling from my mouth, everyday, every night every second I'm breathing…

I hear them, in the corner of the room in the dark their speaking, in tongues, I waken, under a deadly spell.

Black lung, head swinging, don’t lie coz you get out what you put in. sleep with one eye on myself, and I'm still killing myself.

Dead weight, when your bloods thinning, please tell me that your never gonna give in. With anchors tied to myself, the king I am in myself.

I cant control what I'm given, whats inside of me, whats the point of me. I cant be saved from the living, its not part of me, I don’t belong in the mix up.

I hear them, in the corner of my room in the dark their speaking, in tongues, I waken, under a deadly spell.

Black lung, head swinging, don’t lie coz you get out what you put in. Sleep with one eye on myself, and I'm still killing myself.

Dead weight, when your bloods thinning, please tell me that your never gonna give in. With anchors tied to myself, the king I am in myself.
