lyrics

What is the weight of all this worth to you
Because I'm sick of your casual drugs
How can you say it's all that you can do
when the sun was an empty promise of
the burden of being set free to deal with the consequences of existing

So bury me inside a fantasy of a world that no longer exists

Trying to escape the ocean in a desert
When I'm still starving for water or release
What purpose does any of this serve
Lying to yourself while we rip out our teeth

//

The doctor told me I've been spending too much time in my thoughts
But why shouldn't I hide?
A progeny of people who couldn't be honest with themselves or with anyone else
You act like I don't know I'm sick
But the cure is worse than what I'm trying to fix
And I never had the money or the time
To reclaim the life that was supposed to be mine

So at this point an endless series of distractions is simply the only action

So we can bury me inside a fantasy of a world that no longer exists
I can't hold onto the things to pull me through one more night of getting by living like this
