lyrics

Twisting inside out
I offer my thoughts to god

A chorus of dry heaves
Tract marks map the portrait of an inevitable ending

Raising hell till heaven's reached
Eyes scatter like moths on a lightbulb
A disfigured beauty
Open wounds like ventilation

Bloodshot eyes
A putrid guise

The lights grow dimmer
Lines grow thinner
This body's a conduit
Something's been clawing its way out of you

Skin is aesthetic
Stitched over the real deal

Shed your shell
Show your shapes and colors
I just want to taste what's real
I just need to know it's there

You're nobody's anything
Don't you EVER breathe again

You're nobody's good time
It would never hurt you

Nothing more than meat with eyes

You're nobody's anything
Don't you EVER breathe again

You're nobody's good time
It would never hurt you

I open myself to you
To show you what lies beneath
The things that you've never seen
Tonight I'll make you believe

I open myself to you
To show you what lies beneath
A memory for you to keep
A sight to haunt your sleep

Eyes filled with nevermore
Mind corroded with substance
When I pick up the phone
Still no one is home

Insects crawl through lacerations
Picking apart like the people you knew
The church bell rings as you cry for blessings
A fallen angel gone black and blue

I open myself to you
To show you what lies beneath
The things you've never seen
Tonight I'll make you believe

I open myself to you
To show you what lies beneath
A memory for you to keep
This time, we have cut too deep

Jesus is in the pill, it will bring you salvation
Come touch hands with your savior

Life will only repeat it
Life will bring you deceit
