[Vere 1]

Submerged in dirt, but it was never enough

To quell the fire in the back of my lungs

My bones are aching, and my head is a mess

They said to run, but I'm obsessed with the madness


[Pre-Chorus]

This blood I bleed, I bleed for you

I paint the walls with my misery

This blood I bleed, I bleed for me

I cannot live if I can't breathe


[Chorus]

The part I can't control, I can't destroy

The wretchedness inside

The wretchedness inside of you

The wretchedness inside of me


[Verse 2]

Consigned to hurt, but it was never enough

To bury feelings that will surely return

My heart is aching, and my God, I'm a mess

I'll never run 'cause I'm obsessed with the madness


[Pre-Chorus]

This blood I bleed, I bleed for you

I paint the walls with my misery

This blood I bleed, I bleed for me

I cannot live if I can't breathe


[Chorus]

The part I can't control, I can't destroy

The wretchedness inside

The wretchedness inside of you

The wretchedness inside of me


[Post-Chorus]

I cannot control, I cannot destroy

In hell, can I confide?

The wretchedness inside of you

(In hell, can I confide?)

The wretchedness inside of me


[Bridge]

How did it come to this?

How the fuck did it come to this?

Our love and hate collide in all this dissonance

How did it come to this?

How the fuck did it come to this?

Our love and hate collide in all this dissonance

Fuck you

How did it come to this?

How the fuck did it come to this?

Our love and hate collide in all this dissonance


[Bridge]

How did it come to this?

How the fuck did it come to this?

Our love and hate collide in all this dissonance


[Pre-Chorus]

This blood I bleed, I bleed for you

I paint the walls with my misery

This blood I bleed, I bleed for me

I cannot live if I can't breathe


[Chorus]

The part I can't control, I can't destroy

The wretchedness inside

The wretchedness inside of you

The wretchedness inside of me


[Post-Chorus]

I cannot control, I cannot destroy

In hell, can I confide?

The wretchedness inside of you

In hell, can I confide?

The wretchedness inside of me
