[Verse 1: Rivilin]

Watch the image of me move slow

Your angry voice always just makes me stow

The fear I held as a child deep inside

Until the skin starts to break and I crumble

Down, down, down in the undertow

Friends rise above me as I sink below

Into this hell that I made here all on my own

I'm sitting past rock bottom contemplating suicide

Yeah where's my soul

You said I'd never be anything, yeah, so why try?

Floating inside of a capsule till panic subsides

A lack of serotonin so we take SSRI'S

Medicated by someone else to keep my life in a line

I stay high so I can just pretend that everything is fine

I still have memories of my father in the back of my mind

Decide to ruin a family name so I can just pretend

That everything will be fine

When the morning starts with the end


[Chorus: Rivilin]

Pop a pill, to relate

Can't connect, it’s too late

Digging flesh, wanting more

Making the cracks in the core

Hell's above, so below

You’re tethered, in my soul

In reverse, watch the lights

Fade back and forth 'till I'm gone

I fucked up, I can't change

Wait a sec', I'll explain

Slipping tongues in the rain

The best times I’ll never gain

The forest always yearns

I hear it calling concern

Until I fade away

Maybe my life is in vain?


[Verse 2: Skylarallen]

I can tell from your eyes (Your eyes)

See the hate

Deep inside (Deep inside)

I’m too late

Never mind

Feels like I can’t get it right

Fool me once

Fool me twice

I come back

Kill the lights

Curtains up

Show is done

I won’t bring you back to life

I learned from every mistake (What?)

Trust is not something you break (No)

And when I got too much on my plate

I just remember it's fate (It's fate)

Who knew how much it would take

When I got myself in the way (Yeah)

Watching these clouds turn to gray

I’m washing memories away

They told me you won’t be nothing

Except a let down

I'll watch this world burn to ashes

Before I melt now

When they turned their backs

I was laughing with every step

I went from searching for what’s right

Now I’m taking everything left

Can’t shake this feeling inside

One minute I close my eyes

Then it’s right back to a life

Where I’ve got nowhere to hide

Try to pretend that I’m fine

When I feel so paralyzed

I feel your words in my spine

With every day I’m alive

Now my backs to the wall

I feel nothing at all

And I wonder how I got here?

All the pain from the fall

I feel nothing at all

I feel nothing at all


[Chorus: Rivilin]

Pop a pill, to relate

Can't connect, it’s too late

Digging flesh, wanting more

Making the cracks in the core

Hell's above, so below

You’re tethered, in my soul

In reverse, watch the lights

Fade back and forth 'till I'm gone

I fucked up, I can't change

Wait a sec', I'll explain

Slipping tongues in the rain

The best times I’ll never gain

The forest always yearns

I hear it calling concern

Until I fade away

Maybe my life is in vain?

Pop a pill, to relate

Can't connect, it’s too late

Digging flesh, wanting more

Making the cracks in the core

Hell's above, so below

You’re tethered, in my soul

In reverse, watch the lights

Fade back and forth 'till I'm gone

I fucked up, I can't change

Wait a sec', I'll explain

Slipping tongues in the rain

The best times I’ll never gain

The forest always yearns

I hear it calling concern

Until I fade away

Maybe my life is in vain?
