[Verse 1]

Run as fast as you can

The enemies closin' in

You say it's all in my head

I promise it's not pretend

This time, I think

Have I gone blind with delusion

Going deaf from the rage

I can't hold them back today

I hear my friends in the corner, they say unlock the cage

I've lost my strength but my will's growin' my compulsion to break

I've parsed out every disguise, and now I walk the razor line

The whispers turn to a scream, see the key for escape

Misguided you to safety, we're equal parts crazy

We're opposite forces, to carry a curse

But this time I go alone

'Cause I'm prepared for the worst


[Chorus]

Today is the day, the day I decay

Told you to evacuate

Now you're no longer safe

'Cause you're part of me

And I never change

So give me the strength

To gut myself and getaway


[Verse 2]

Standin' here eviscerated, take all that you need

With my entrails on the floor

With my body make the key

Use everything, leavin' nothin' but a waste

Regenerate, into somethin' that'll change

The path toward my ego erupting

Broken mirrors, it's all or nothing

There's no calm inside the storm

It's too late to miss your before

You were made for my protection, protect me

I hear the victim inside me lamenting

I couldn't function, I had to reject me

Become somethin' more than what's expected

You're not prepared for the bloodshed

Break these bonds, make me your warhead

Take your leave or friendly fire

'Cause I'm prepared for the worst


[Chorus]

Today is the day, the day I decay

Told you to evacuate

Now you're no longer safe

'Cause you're part of me

And I never change

So give me the strength

To gut myself and getaway


[Bridge]

You decide my peace of mind

By design

You're broken, we're hopeless

We're at the edge of cavin' in


[Chorus]

Today is the day, the day I decay

Told you to evacuate

Now you're no longer safe

'Cause you're part of me

And I never change

So give me the strength

To gut myself and getaway

Today is the day, the day I decay

Told you to evacuate

Now you're no longer safe

'Cause you're part of me

And I never change

So give me the strength

To gut myself and getaway
