I feel safety in reconnecting The warm bed of comfort Safe in the arms of your memory I feel safety in reconnecting
2.
Mourning every morning Breaking my teeth in my sleep I wonder what it would feel like To never wake up again But I keep thinking of my mother And even she feels the same But I keep thinking of my mother And even she feels the same Every morning I’m in mourning A daily funeral of shame Every morning I’m in mourning A daily funeral Progress is a process And I’m rewiring myself Accepting mistakes Letting the guilt fade Progress is a process I’m being kind to myself I’m going to get this right One day at a time

Reconnecting 02:48
The water’s cold and I’m dying And I don’t want to keep trying I’ve found my place in the grey Marching through day by day Wading through the swamp Suffering from trenchfoot Can’t see the sun through the canopy I don’t need you to remember me Looking through with blackened eyes The phantom of a slow death Smiling ‘cause there’s nothing left to regret Wading through the swamp Suffering from trenchfoot Can’t see the sun through the canopy I don’t need you to remember me Push me to the ocean floor My guilt destroys me

Paraphrenia 03:25
Lying in a self made hospital The walls of glass can’t help me anymore The medicine had a percentage No more vomit and my throat isn’t sore Nurses in tattered scrubs, eyes full of black Doctors with knives scraping across my back In the I.C.U, I see you, my former self Lying on the cold hard floor In a cold sweat from the night before Scared ‘cause the voices in your head won’t stop “That bottle of Tylenol will make it stop” Head in a vice and an ache in my bones Head in a vice and an ache in my bones I’m having trouble reconnecting
5.
Anhedonia 03:26
Flip me around and aim a little higher With violence in your stroke Rip me apart at the ribcage Then run it through and across my throat Crack me open, you’ll see nothing Black blood and brittle bones I’ve been down here for so many years now That it has become my home Crack me open, you’ll see nothing Black blood and brittle bones I’ve been down here for so many years now That it has become my home We champion the misery We push away our family We find a home in a room all alone I lost the light that’s inside of me We champion the misery We push away our family We find a home in a room all alone I lost the light that’s inside of me When the light burns out The bulb doesn’t even flicker A soul of stone and a heart so bitter I just hope that when I go You’ll all realize I’m happier when I’m alone Alone in the perpetual black Peaceful in eternal rest Alone in the perpetual black Peaceful in eternal rest When the light burns out The bulb doesn’t even flicker Alone in the perpetual black Peaceful in eternal rest
6.
Misanthropy 01:54
The plane’s going to crash and I refuse to brace Traverse the mountains in the depths of my mind I’ve grown absolutely sick of the human race Put a gun to my head, pull the trigger at the finish line I’m surrounded by parasites Be the first to Witness the anatomy of misanthropy Dismiss the clarity of familiarity Be the first to Push the doomsday button on society Let the world die happily Head in a vice and an ache in my bones I’m surrounded by parasites
7.
Suffering in a prison of flesh Suffering in a prison of flesh Legs failing Eyes can’t focus Rotting teeth Jaundiced Atrophied Can no longer speak The poverty of speech Suffering in a prison of flesh Did you want to leave before you did? I ran away, drowned myself in a bottle I’ll live out the rest of my days as a disappointment Suffering in a prison of flesh Did you want to leave before you did? I ran away, drowned myself in a bottle I’ll live out the rest of my days as a disappointment I am a waste of time, a waste of space and thought The limping dog that should be fucking shot I am a waste of time, a waste of space and thought The limping dog that should be fucking shot A broken leg, a migraine, a blood clot The limping dog that should be fucking shot

6 in 100,000 04:20
I deserve to rot in pieces For giving up like I did Burning alive in my excuses I was just a fucking kid I haven’t heard your voice in years I can’t remember what you were like Before your body betrayed you Before the slow death of your mind I’ll never reconnect The safety is gone I was a coward I was too young To do what needed to be done I’ll never reconnect My youth is gone I thought I did my best Every day was a mess And I’ll never be a deserving son Your odds were 6 in 100,000 Tie me down to this bed Set the room on fire Your odds were 6 in 100,000
