I will sit at the front row and watch you dance whisper my name again across the moonlit street till you disappear I was caught in between love and fear wrath and belief weird thought encroaches on my mind so easy feels like a parasite self-destructed own decision fell into my delusion your dedication makes great contribution I never found it so numb there was a ghost inside me cutting deep in my tongue but it's a lie by flight and fight fleeting mind shaking again and again excitedly I was caught in between love and fear wrath and belief I tried to make it right until you made it a mess before the lights go insane take your dagger come and gently kill my name you killed my name cut my throat off make me suffocate paint my world a new grey pick apart my bones you stand agape evade my gaze in decay there was no one in sight I died before your very eyes words that flog like vipers daggers veiled in lines and lines just lying and basking in shades and basking in shades weird thought encroaches on my mind so easy feels like a parasite self-destructed own decision fell into my delusion your dedication makes great contribution my delusion you are sitting at the front row and watching me dance whisper my name again across the moonlit street till you disappear I was caught in between love and fear wrath and belief sing me to sleep and pull the trigger drop I can't stop my hallucinations I'm afraid that you live inside my head I was choke by the words you said can you smell my fears from miles away I see it in your eyes when I suffocate suffocate

everything they spit on me gives non depression how many times do you complain about your poor life how many times you want to kill but you never will villain you better run you better run your shelter is already gone horn of war has collapsed hatred echoes i weave inside your mind our souls collide died cut it off let it die run and hide and cry no turning back no watch you burn my soul gives a whisper hold your grudge no future in the past cut all fakers off their fucking heads withering in silence will you trust it was ever worth you're just a snake in disguise a snake in disguise cut it off let it die run and hide and cry no turning back no watch you burn my soul gives a whisper hold your grudge no future in the past cut all fakers off their fucking heads withering in silence will you trust it was ever worth now my hatred's crashing through make no mistake you'll never relate one thing take back your hollow sympathy you know that one day you're about to break about to break snake in disguise and nothing will reverse my ride so stay away so fucking stay away you better run you better run your shelter is already gone show me your true color a snake in disguise I have glared the death in eyes my heart has been sky high attempted to change a snake in disguise deadweight deadweight loss of my time deadweight attempted to turn a villain back take your breath and die alone

In Bleakness, I've Taken Breath 02:35
lyrics

I've locked myself in this place I've locked myself in this place I've locked myself in this place I've locked myself up locked all the embers still burn taint my breath with a bitter taste all the words stay in place never be sent never be noticed creeping like a snake in my vein voices erupt in my brain my mind is dead like a drought sleep in unrest waking in doubt I can't be saved don't ever send help I'd rather die in my silent hell I know my presence is a curse I accept this is what I deserve I'll leave no final words for words will not decay I find myself in perpetual purgatory I keep all my woes in my chest in bleakness, I've taken breath sometimes I think I'm insane dance in the rain no one should feel this pain nothing can save a moth that darts into the flames God, see me rot in silence angels leaving me no guidance where do I go from here until my last breath escapes I'll lie awake allow my heart to cease and never beat again I'm waiting with patience allow my heart to cease and never beat again I'm writhing and lying awake surrender to my sickness salvation not in sight

come any closer I'll hang you up by the same thread always a game to singular my true foe my faction, your reflection time to put an end to this once and for all it stinks can't feel my face can't find what the worth of trying all of my worth turn into none my breathe's losing control no I can't fight it every brick of wall feels indestructible the imaging amenity crushing the sanity of mine beaten and broken but that's why I can't tap out fight against the enemy yet that's always around yet never shown is it anywhere else I can breathe the cloud is clouding me clouding my sight like swimming into undertow drowning into the heart of ocean the battle can't be won anxious can't be solved the frustration keeps building higher and higher you started become the image that drives me and twists me how long has it been every time I take a step you make me stuck in the loop again and again can't stop the pain I'm damned can someone show me the way stop wasting stop wasting time otherwise you should let go always a reckoning why'd you never show yet never shown is it anywhere else I can breathe the cloud is clouding me clouding my sight like swimming into undertow drowning into the heart of ocean the battle can't be won anxious can't be solved the frustration keeps building higher and higher you started become the image that drives me and twists me I won't let you drag me any longer I won't let you drag me any longer no fuck it out of the sight out of my goddamn mind is it anywhere else I can breathe the cloud is clouding me clouding my sight like swimming into undertow drowning into the heart of ocean the battle can't be won anxious can't be solved the frustration keeps building higher and higher you started become the image that drives me and twists me stop wasting time otherwise you should let go always a reckoning why'd you never show

Stay Alive (ft. ToniChen) 04:57

未完成のパズル どうしてだろう 何かが足りない 行き違いの運命 離れてゆくことも 知りながら また歩く I stay alive 今は一人 闇をさまようだけ 想定外の切なさが 胸の中 消えぬままで 不安定なシーソー 離れすぎて 片方見えない 目印さえないから ふっと目を閉じては また祈る oh stay alive 今はどんなことを思ってるのでしょう 泣いていないけど 一人はやっぱり 寂しくってさ ずっと祈った stay alive stay alive stay alive 未完成のパズル うまくいかなくて 音も無い澄んだ風に 心揺らす I stay alive 今はどこで何をしてるの 想定外の切なさが 胸の中 消えぬままで stay alive
