In solitude, there's nothing left to lose

I call for you but you won't come and save me

Forgotten by all the ones I've loved and the ones who've said they cared

I guess it's my distrustful faith in a sea of snakes

Push it all down, push it all away

Spare me of your counterfeit attempts of saving face

Holding on because you have something to gain

I see right through your two faces and I can't relate

Your so called “friends” are dead

You use the loss just for the attention

That little blue bird feeds your image of imitation

Hit your head falling from the social ladder you crave

Birds of a feather so fake and you are all the same

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

I fall back into the dark

Isolation beckoning, separate

No one's coming back for me, no

You left me behind in the ashes of what used to be

I'm lost in your absence

Everything I've loved is now past tense

Forgotten, I was just a memory. Just a fragment

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

The mask you wear must be heavy hanging off your face

Bury your skeletons before the vultures start to feed

I don't need anyone, I don't need anything

Human kind is exhausting

I've become so drained

Human kind is exhausting I've become so drained of life

You take away my energy

I will not conform to the game

Fuck your status and your false sense of superiority

It means nothing to me

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

When it all goes dark, no ones coming back for you

Forgotten from the start, so there is nothing left to prove

Everyone moves on and there is nothing you can do

No sense in holding on because in the end we're born to lose

I will not succumb to you

You sit at tables with the plastic personalities

The cowards play a cowards game and bite the hand that feeds

You're subject to become another cog in the machine

Another carbon copy and you all mean nothing to me

You are

Nothing to me

Take your place in the waste with all of the flies

Bathing in shit, feeding their false images

You're jaded, caught in the chains of all I despise

Sedated behind a gate of this exclusivity

I will denounce the hate and all of the lies

Drenched in the venom you spit and you don't even realize

Your fate is paved with the nameless graves of the blind

You're rotting inside a hive, devoid of love and light
