[Verse 1: Caden Hopkins]

Anxious, painfully awaiting

Coping, fearfully escaping

Burning, pretentious gaze

Remains, all that I've begun to raze

I'm a ghost with no purpose

The hollowness of my emotion barely scratches the surface

Drag me down to the darkest depths

The endless void of greeting death


[Bridge 1: Shane Nelms]

I sit alone on the wings of this airplane

Wondering if I'll die alone or live with all my pain

The tranquility of darkness befalls upon me

Will I ever find myself again, despite my wasted opportunities?


[Chorus: Caden Hopkins]

Is this really the answer?

Do these verses even help?

Or have I wasted my time?

Committing pointless catharticide?

The void feels peaceful

The emptiness resonates within my soul

If my suffering entertains you

Then are you fucking satisfied just yet?!


[Verse 2: Caden Hopkins]

Discomforting, the weight of thinking

Agonizing, the thoughts of sinking

The background of my suffering

This loss and guilt is smothering

The regurgitation of my mind's depression

To release for the world's concession

Unwelcoming me as the growing disease

Blood flow dropping, ready to cease


[Pre-Chorus: Shane Nelms]

I sit alone on the wings of this airplane

Wondering if I'll die alone or live with all my pain

The tranquility of darkness befalls upon me

Will I ever find myself again, despite my wasted opportunities?


[Chorus: Caden Hopkins]

Is this really the answer?

Do these verses even help?

Or have I wasted my time?

Committing pointless catharticide?

The void feels peaceful

The emptiness resonates within my soul

If my suffering entertains you

Then are you fucking satisfied just yet?!


[Bridge: Caden Hopkins]

This is a cry for help

I can't take it anymore

Save me from myself

'Cause I don't feel like I'm human anymore


[Pre-Chorus: Shane Nelms]

I sit alone on the wings of this airplane

Wondering if I'll die alone or live with all my pain

The tranquility of darkness befalls upon me

Will I ever find myself again, despite my wasted opportunities?


[Chorus: Caden Hopkins]

Is this really the answer?

Do these verses even help?

Or have I wasted my time?

Committing pointless catharticide?

The void feels peaceful

The emptiness resonates within my soul

If my suffering entertains you

Then are you fucking satisfied just yet?!
