Verse 1

I keep my eyes shut wide

Cause the pain is hard to hide

Down where the darkness resides

Always scratching at my insides

And Its aching on my mind

So a way out is what I try to find

But instead I dug myself into a hole

Uprooted my life and sold my soul

But at first it wasn’t that serious

Puffing loud to make me delirious

But after it faded i was more than curious

And unfortunately the cat didn’t kill it

So i wanted more than to just revisit

The high that clouded my brain

I wanted better but the same

Thinking back i feel insane

Knowing damn well thats not what i wanted

But i made a mistake now I’m forever haunted

And those are famous last words

But last words are famously heard

So can you hear me through the static

Is this something serious or me being dramatic

Huffing this nicotine like an addict

Hiding all my problems in the attic

Verse 2

Now Its like we live in our hole of lies

Instead of living our whole lives

Doing anything to close our eyes

Always saying we want thought

But the war for it was never fought

We rather sit back and ignore it

Even tho that thought is ignorant

We can’t hide from the monsters

And what their doing upstairs

Cause monsters don’t live under your bed

They live deep inside your head

And my head

And her head

And their head

So I’m teasing my sobriety

Being eaten alive by my anxiety

But I still function in society

Steady walking among the sleep

Standing out like a black sheep

While everyone is noticing me

Feeling like pac wit all the eyes on we

But this is not how I want it to be

Cause the real me is not who they see

So I’m emptying bottles to find happiness

There must be something better than this

But I’m still drinking

More and more calls for less thinking

So can you hear me through the static

Is this something serious or me being dramatic

Huffing this nicotine like an addict

Hiding all my problems in the attic

Verse 3

Now you were better than any vice

You made my life into a paradise

And at first you helped me fly with a vein full

Then you took away my sky and it was painful

Cause at that point you swallowed me whole

Your love burning inside me like black coal

And there was no way that i could run

Cause the urge for you had just begun

Then slowly I came undone

But you were always right there

Holding me tightly filling me with air

But at the same time you tarnished my heath

Giving me the tools i needed to destroy myself

Now you can follow the tracks up my arm

To find beauty and wonder in its purest form

Surrounded by all the dead cells

But thats not the image you sell

To me and many victims just alike

Beauty dies at the end of that spike

Your soul fades from that first dive

And that feeling will never again arrive

You’ll spend every moment chasing tails

Of every dragon you let down these trails

Till you fly clean off the rails

But can you hear me through the static

Is this something serious or me bring dramatic…
