[Verse 1: Aaron Matts & Zelli, all]

They keep saying brighter days are coming

Although the mist is getting thicker and thicker

As I've been fading away

And I'm fucking thirty three, still going through changes

And getting lost in the process

And getting lost in my fears

Your feelings aside

'Cause I've made another bargain with the devil that's in my mind

He tells me life down there could be so beautiful

I'm feeling the high and I'm feeling the heat

'Cause this is where I've always wanted to be

So let's sink

[Refrain: Anthony Diliberto & Aaron Matts]

Take me back to older days

'Causе I'm afraid I'll never be thе same

Here's my love letter, dear evil within

Why do I feel so low when I'm out at sea?

[Verse 2: Anthony Diliberto, Aaron Matts, Zelli, all]

(I'm gonna tell you something)

Dishonest to myself, designer of my own coffin

Strolling 'round the block like I know what I'm doing

Still not afraid of dying, yet I'm afraid to live

Scared of the dark, but I thrive in the darkest places


[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Diliberto]

At the deepest of my heart, I know I went too far

It's a one-way now, there's no turning back

No longer the man I was, taking off the mask

Acting like a wolf but I'm just a rat

[Chorus: Anthony Diliberto & Aaron Matts]

Take me back to older days

'Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same

Linger on nothing, dust in the wind

(Why do I feel so low when I'm out at sea?)

Still the song remains the same

It's bittersweet how I can't seem to change

Here's my love letter, dear evil within

[Post-Chorus: Aaron Matts & Zelli]

Why do I feel so low when I'm out at sea?

I'm swimming all alone now with no air to breathe

Nonexistent, this fucking feeling is so consistent

Breaking down, though I'm persistent

I'm so over me

Fucking same mistakes, no empathy

Why is it like is? Whole life crisis

Put me underground because I'm dead

There's no dawn without dusk, ooh


[Pre-Chorus: Anthony Diliberto]

Something's taking over me, Jekyll and Hyde

Not enough room in this body for both you and I

Between day and night, always split in half

Hiding in the shadow so I can't be found

[Chorus: Anthony Diliberto, with Aaron Matts, with Zelli]

Take me back to older days

'Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same

Linger on nothing, dust in the wind

Still the song remains the same (Remains the same)

It's bittersweet how I can't seem to change

Here's my love letter, dear evil within

[Bridge: Anthony Diliberto, all]

There's no dawn without dusk

No birth without death, peace without war

There's no me without you

[Breakdown: Anthony Diliberto, Aaron Matts, Zelli, all]

There's nothing that could change my mind so

Take me back now

No one is able to get to me so

Just take me back right now

Brain dead insect, barely kept alive by its parasite

Makes me wish I'd never been alive

Saw me in half, rip off the vice

Take me back


[Outro: Anthony Diliberto]

Take me back to older days

'Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same

Here's my love letter, dear evil within
