I’ve reached, the apex of my boredom, I’ve RSVP’d with a no to my own funeral
What good does it do me, to just be complacent,
To be a replacement,
To never even try (never try)
The sleepless nights
Spent plotting my escape
I have the key, but cannot find the gate (find the gate)
There’s no such thing as an atheist foxhole, but goddammit here we are
There are no easy answers, there are no second chances
There is only regret in the rearview, of your backwards glances
This victory rings hollow and empty, there is so much more to go, there is so much more
Destitute, I won’t give in to this
No not again this is my cross to bear this is my weighted anchor
I won’t let go
I hold on with all I’ve got

We have no use, for people like you you’ve been found out
You’ve been compromised
Now we know what you’re all about
Nothing at all
You lack substance and depth
you’re not a part of this and you never will be
You fake piece of shit
You lack conviction, a cheap parlor trick, superficial and weak
With no roots, no integrity you grab onto the coattails of whatever is popular
And nothing rings true
All of your empty words don’t mean a thing, this is not about you

My skin crawls, my stomach turns in knots
Will I ever get past the point where I can just write this whole thing off
So full of wasted promise, so full of wide eyed regret
Annihilate
Whats left of rationale
Burning every bridge to the fucking ground
Nothing good will ever come from not heeding my own advice
And all this time, I've told myself
That I should let you in
I was so wrong, so heres to never again
I'm severing all ties, heres to never again
The moment you realize that no one will help you, I wont be there
Wasn't this inevitable, that we'd end up cutting each others throats
A lifetime spent in ruin, to end up dying alone.

So far removed from the tranquil surroundings of your home
I’ve dragged you, through the woods in the middle of the night, to open you up
They’ll never find you, when I get through, and when I’m through with you you’ll be ripped to shreds
Food for the animals, a lifeless former friend of mine
You’ve stabbed me in the back, for the final time
There are no excuses. only exit wounds
A pool of blood, reflects the moon
As I read aloud, a transcript of all your transgressions, you will beg for your life
Every scream you expel, can not be heard
This dull knife peels the flesh from your bones, and pours in the salt
The last thing you see, the last thing you see as I take out your eyes
Is your grave being dug, being lowered, as you’re buried alive
