lyrics

Time to face it
I can’t erase it
On my knees the length of the day
Nod to the beat
I feel defeated
Intoxicated, outta my head
Quick trip to annihilation
I’ve had a taste
Of a new fixation
It’s the start
Of violent creation
A remedy for my agitation

Cover up, about to vent
I’m crazy every now and then
Is it ok if I pretend
To hold my breath and count to ten?

Recognise yourself reflected
Under skin and bone
I don’t want to be that person
Hollow and alone

Our lives adjacent
A shame to waste it
A new beginning is underway
Familiar faces are hard to place
If you seek to keep
The demons at bay
Transition, vicious decision
Change my position
Enter the fray
Cease and desist
If I still persist
Then it’s all or nothing
Out of the way!

Cover up, about to vent
I’m crazy every now and then
Is it ok if I pretend
To hold my breath and count to ten?

Realise this has to end
In time it kills your soul
I don’t want to be that person
So bitter and cold

Running outta time to say
I hate myself in every way
The who, the how, the why, the when
I feel it building up again
Cover up, about to vent
I’m crazy every now and then
Is it ok if I pretend
To be your friend?

Hollow and alone
So bitter and cold
I feel it building up again
Building up again to vent
I’m crazy every now and then
I’m crazy every now and then
To be your friend
