I took the long path to self destruction Paid no mind to bones I was breaking Threw the mess up in the attic to pretend it was gone I took the back steps into a dungeon Now these walls are my only validation And denial's seed burgeons deep inside of me How many times you took your life for granted (It's back to the start, back to the start) Fell through the floorboards left empty handed (It's back to the start, back to the start) And at the bottom there's no residual glow In my coffin there's no residual glow I took the long path to self destruction Paid no mind to the bones I was breaking And denial's seed burgeons deep inside of me

I'm a dull and distant moon Oscillating in and out of tune With the tides that draw me nearer To the black hole in the mirror And I float in a way That a despondent ghost Leers at his grave Sinking to space In the back of my head Tracing lines across the sky Lapse in time in reverie goes by But constellations are deceivers For longing dreamers to believe in And I shrug in a way That a respondent cog Accepts his fate Eclipsing the rays In the back my head

Wishing Well 02:37
I wake up feeling that the day will conjure Into a cycle of deceit I know so well I throw my thoughts my reprieve to a wishing well To break the spell I wake up feeling that my gaze will falter Into a spiraling defeat I call my home Sink to the bottom of the sea where no one dwells To evade the swell And I wanna say That I'm not afraid But who'd believe me? I wake up feeling that the fear will conquer Into a toxic consciousness I ride this storm I throw my thoughts of reprieve to a wishing well To break the spell I throw my thoughts of reprieve to a wishing well And time will tell

Hanging pictures on the walls Pulling them down to trash them all Burning flowers in the fields To see what next year's crop will yield I've been trying to make sense Of the hesitance to say That nothing resonates with me Sneering idle in the trees Owl eyes denounce your dreams Calling out for you to stay Heed their words become their prey Nock my arrow and release Leave them buried in debris Nothing resonates with me I was standing in the heart But my mind was off astray Now I'm floating in the dark Down a narrow distant vein Trespassed in a life that's not my own Stood around long enough and turned to stone The scaffolds of permanence crumbling from beneath Nothing resonates with me
