(Verse 1)
The lights bleed into a toxic stream
Another promise, another broken dream
Pieces are scattered and building up dust
Seeing no hope to be found or combust
I've learned to love the chaos, the comfort in pain
A repeating mistake that falls steady like rain
Every road changes, the journey’s the same
a new set of mirrors to reflect my blame
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve gone through the motions, played out the parts
Stared at the wreckage of a broke down heart
I’ve ripped out the valves, tried to feel again
But my broken spirit won’t forget where it's been
[Chorus]
Yeah, I watch myself living in disguise
I see the future flash before my eyes
running from the symptom, in love with the cause
A self-destructive ritual without a pause
every little victory is a slow, sweet lie
Another dose of poison, to watch me die
The pattern never breaks, the same every day
lost inside my own mind, blacked out and grey
[Verse 2]
They put out their hands, try to pull me from the glass
They don't understand the future mocks my past
a human skin, a costume I've learned
A fragile, porcelain waiting to be burned
Another conversation, another fading plea
trying to save what no longer looks like me
the masterpiece of a monster I've become
waiting for my turn to be in the sun
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve gone through the motions, played out the parts
Stared at the wreckage of a broke down heart
I’ve ripped out the valves, tried to feel again
But my broken spirit won’t forget where it's been
[Chorus]
Yeah, I watch myself living in disguise
I see the future flash before my eyes
running from the symptom, in love with the cause
A self-destructive ritual that doesn’t stop
every little victory is a slow, sweet lie
Another dose of poison, to watch me die
The pattern never breaks, it’s the same every day
lost inside my own mind, blacked out and grey
[Bridge]
The only truth I know is the sweet decay
I’m trained to the damage, I’m where it stays
built my own prison, and threw out the key
the only thing real is what's left inside me...
The sound of the end... (I’m self destructive)
A chance to forget... (the self destruction)
[Breakdown]
(Aaaaaahhh!) in my own war
(Aaaaaahhhhh!) IN MY OWN WAR
(Aaaaaaahhh!!!!) I'M self destructive!!
(Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!) IN MY OWN WAR!!!
(aaaaaah!!!!) self destructive!!!
I’m!!!! Self destructive!!!
(aaaaaah!!!!) self destructive!!!
(aaaaaahhh!!!!) Self destructive!!!
