Dead to Me

[Verse 1]
No reignition as we live to bottom dwell
As I sink into the floor
My aspirations in the bottom of a well
And locked behind a door
Blindfolded, hands tied behind my back
This depressant rusty chain
You know the feeling when the walls begin to crack?
Beauty of the pain

[Chorus]
Black veil, you fail, no escape
I feed this freed dark shape
I seek this bleak landscape
Raw nerve, observe this rape

[Verse 2]
It's just another theft, another sacrifice
Can't you see there's nothing left?
Just another cold device
I strip it clean with alcohol
And another cigarette
As I try to kill it all
But I haven't killed one yet

[Chorus]
Black veil, you fail, no escape
I feed this freed dark shape
I seek this bleak landscape
Raw nerve, observe this rape

[Bridge]
Now I can see I was wrong
I found a place where I belong
No one will hear, save your cries
Embrace a final sunrise
Captured, we are twitching flies
A servant to thee, web of lies

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
I live a life of illusion
Corrosion of trust, mental perversion
Chronic condition, building a wall
Take your position
But you'll be fine
Out of remission, loss of control
Total submission
Inside your mind

[Chorus]
Black veil, you fail, no escape
I feed this freed dark shape
I seek this bleak landscape
Raw nerve, observe this rape

[Outro]
I am dead to me
Dead to me
