[Intro]

Ammunition for an empty gun

All that's become

Must unbecome


[Verse 1]

I see God in my dreams and I can't stop running

Don't care what I've become, but fear what I am becoming

Set me straight, I'm no angel

Falling apart, she feeds death from the table


[Verse 2]

Waking asleep, I can't sleep - yet I'm sleeping

I'm slipping again and no hope's what I'm thinking

I'm buried alive inside, so claustrophobic

With nothing to say today, afraid and we know it


[Pre-Chorus]

What do I know? I know that we know nothing

I feel like I'm constantly waiting for something

What am I waiting for, what am I trying to do?

I'm trying to prove that it's all a lie


[Chorus]

Can't get enough and I'm already there

(I'm already there and I still can't get enough)

So just deny what you can't repair

(Between the lie, read between your lie)

I can't get enough and I'm already there

(I'm already there and I still can't get enough)

Run as far as you can because nobody cares

(Between your lie, read between your lie)


[Verse 3]

I got a little secret that I keep inside

Deep down dormant in the dark she hides

But every time that I close my eyes

I can feel it (I can feel her die)


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I'm jaded too, maybe I'm dead like you

Maybe I'm obsolete, maybe I'm incomplete

Maybe insanity blinded by prophecy

Maybe the opposite, maybe I'm right

Maybe a victim, maybe you're not

When did you start to care about what I thought?

What would you do for me, who will you be for me?

What about family, who would you kill for me?


[Chorus]

Can't get enough and I'm already there

(I'm already there and I still can't get enough)

So just deny what you can't repair

(Between the lie, read between your lie)

I can't get enough and I'm already there

(I'm already there and I still can't get enough)

Run as far as you can because nobody cares

(Between your lie, read between your lie)


[Verse 4]

Ammunition for a prophet's gun

All that's become, must unbecome

All that's sacred, all that's true

All that's nothing lies in you


[Verse 5]

Try and read between your lie

Try and read between

Madness, insanity, why do you stare through me?

Finish the rest of me, see what you wanna see

Say what you're gonna say, give and then take away

Waiting for guilt to try and read between your lie

Try and read between your lie

Try and read between your lie

Try and read between your lie


[Verse 6]

Go and kiss my fuckin' ass

And it's all that's nothing

Lies in you!


[Bridge]

Even if you're forgiven

Would you forgive yourself?

Even if you're forgiven

Would you forgive yourself?

Even if you're forgiven

Would you forgive yourself?

Even if you're forgiven

Would you forgive yourself?


[Chorus]

Can't get enough and I'm already there

So just deny what you can't repair

Can't get enough and I'm already there

Run as far as you can because nobody cares


[Outro]

Read between your lie!

Read between your lie!

Read between your lie!
