Too tragic to stay with you Too static to try for you These scars, they swallow hard The part of the past that's hollow and dark Too horrid to kill for you Too sordid to die with you Unstable as always, come down Everything else is just dust and sound SEPARATE (I've lost my only way) SEPARATE (I've lost my only way) SEPARATE (I've lost my only way) SEE THE SHAPE (Broken and thrown away) I'd give it all away, come take it all away You can't resent the fear Somebody tell me how I got here I'd give it all to you, come take it, it's all for you The noise is so damn loud, but Everything else is just dust and sound I don't wanna do this anymore Everything's shit - everything's been taken Forsaken - gotta start it over cuz I'm hearing it Backwards - DON'T make sense - DON'T feel better Who's better? It's not that simple You gotta figure it out before you make things difficult It's not a word, it's a problem, the problem was easy Draw your conclusions - solutions? Anybody else wanna run? Contorting, distorting - I am undone One less propaganda nightmare fixture Are you getting the picture?
