(Layer 1)

(Instrumental)

(Layer 2)

Bathe me in that somber light

Monsters roam my head tonight

(Layer 3)

Make me make you scared to die

The fears they're weaponizin'

I start reciprocating

The beasts they're demonizing

I started replicating

Welcome to the afterlife

I'd either die or live long enough to see

That no one hits me harder than ME

(CHASE)

So I stare at the mirror's edge

Bathed in a tinted glow

Have I fallen from the ledge?

I'm not the me I know

Make a beast of the once benign

Damned by a crimson blade

Burn in hell for the brutalized

I'll make you know my name!

Cause this is where we find ourselves

Within the brawl called "do or die"

And you still face your monsters

After I've accepted mine?!

You ain't act upon a dime

I'm-a bury you alive

Cause I keep my buddies close

And my demons closer all the time!

I find what I lack

They've taken farther

So when the karma bites back

I bite back harder!

So don't you tell me

'Bout imperfections

'Cause I've been delving

INTO MY REFLECTIONS!!!

You're no better man than I

Shadows of our former selves

Burn within your afterlife

Walk the flames of hell!

It takes two to dance this line

Only one to break it

Fall before my entropy

And be forsaken. (HAHAHAHAHA!)

When we walk the path again

I'll find I'm worth my weight in gold

So here we stand, at oblivion

Crossing that same old road!

I am all I need to be

This is the path I choose

Take the hand of destiny

End of the road for you!

Cause this is how ambition leads

The innocent to crash and burn

Cause I've turned over brand new leaves

And never left a stone unturned

Pardon me, apologies

But I'm no Mephistopheles

So when I sit upon a throne

I don't care what you want of me!

Welcome to the worst of us

Welcome to the worst of times

Ash to ash and dust to dust

Color up this silver line!

At the end of all roads traveled

After all is said and done

When your face has hit the gravel

Maybe you'll think not to RUN

You're no better man than I

Stuck within a sinner's game

Lost beyond the afterlife

None to tell our names

I CAN FEEL THIS HEART OF MINE

BURNING IN AN AMBER SEA

I FEEL THE FEAR WITHIN YOUR EYES

BOW BEFORE THE BRAND NEW

Me
