Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
I'm goin' back alive, of course I am
As if I ever had a choice
Back to what I always knew I was, on the inside
Back to what I really am

Look at this pathetic place I made
With little bits of sticks and hair and anything I found along the way
And tell yourself you know
You're not really what you know you are, you know?
Of course you do
I think I may have listened to you
I think I may have even listened to you
At the height of my demise

Verse 2:

- repeat Riff 1 -

Oh my god I missed you, it's been so long
And I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline
I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline
Now I know, now I know, now I know for certain
Now I know for certain

Oh burn, motherfucker
Carry the carcass and throw it on
Pull up a chair and watch
The flies come roaring out
And will surround the entire world
And blacken out the sky and every last one of you
Like a plague of locusts
Like an exit, like an end, like the end, like the end, like the end

N.C.
I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore
It's getting hard to know which side is the dream
I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore
I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore
