Nothing Lasts Forever
01:38

You said you’d never hurt me
You said we’d never end
If nothing lasts forever
Why do we all pretend?
There’s nothing worse than darkness
When nightmares come to life
Now all our fears surround us
And we can’t see the light
When everything is ending
Before we cease to be
I hope that you remember
How much you meant to me

Limerence
03:20
|

I dread the thoughts in my head, every single night
I can’t hold onto this thread keeping me alive
Have I begun to decay 'cause I know it’s true?
Will I just wither away living without you?
Now that you’re gone
I don’t belong here tonight
It feels so wrong to carry on
Say goodnight
I dread the voice in my head, every single night
'Cause every word that you’ve said echoes in my mind
Have I begun to decay 'cause I know it’s true?
Will I just wither away living without you?
I can’t feed my addiction
When all I’d ever need
Is nothing but a fiction
There’s nothing left for me

Parasites
04:17
|

Can we feed off of the lies
That we bury deep inside
And survive like parasites
If it’s all we know
And if the pressure’s too much to take
We’ll lose our breath and we’ll suffocate
We can’t come back from the other side
'Cause we can’t live like we’re dead inside
If we have to end our lives
Will we come to realise
We survived like parasites
Now we’re all alone
Can you see me if we don’t survive
You don’t need me to keep you alive
Let me go

Blood Hands
03:50
|

You’ve lied to yourself and everyone else
To put you to sleep at night
It’s not hard to see your obscenity
There’s nothing left to deny
If there’s blood on your hands
Why don’t you understand?
I don’t know what to say now I’ve fallen away
Everything that you were is haunting me
So I’ll live in disdain, I’ll never be the same
Everything that you were is haunting me
When we dissevered, did you take pleasure
In tearing our ties apart
Free from your stricture, painting your picture
Our end is your work of art

Suffer In Silence
03:10
|
|||
Am I living in someone else’s skin
As I come undone
It’s a frail disguise I don’t recognise
Who have I become
Who is this I see here in front of me
In my reflection
I am not myself, I am someone else
Without affection
So silently, I’m suffering
No words can make the ache go away
If there’s no light behind my eyes
Nothing can keep the darkness from me
I’ve become a stranger to those I loved most
Abandoned by all that I used to hold close
I’ve turned into someone I don’t want to be
Now only your absence is all that I see

Am I sick of existence?
I’ve let the days pass me by
Am I in need of assistance?
If I can’t sleep at night
'Cause every dream is a nightmare
And every day is the same
I never had time to prepare
For ending up this way
I can’t seem to tell apart heaven from hell
Neither works for me
I can’t wait for when it all comes to an end
I don’t want to be
What do I have to live for
If I just live to exist?
How did I get so insecure?
Why do I feel like this?
If I don’t want to remember
But can’t let myself forget
Will I relive this forever?
Forever in my head

Incisions
02:48
|

While I was learning how to live
I gave you all I had to give
But all you ever wanted
Was not enough for you
I will never live forever
You know all too well
Will I learn to live without you
Only time will tell
I won’t know who I’m meant to be
Until I’ve cut you out of me
When all of this is over
I’ll be nothing to you
‘Cause in the end, the broken never mend

Amnesia
04:00
|

How will I know what to do
When you've lost what's left of you
When you don’t know who I am
Who will help you understand
If I could tell you things will be okay
You won’t remember the words that I say
But you mean more than what rests in your head
You don’t belong in this hospital bed
So when I say goodnight
I'll tell you it’s alright
But you’ll never know
It’s tearing at my heart
Because the hardest part
Is letting you go
If I look into your eyes
When your life has slipped your mind
Will I see your soul inside
Or are souls another lie

Aren’t you disgusted by what you’ve done?
How can you live with what you’ve become?
Will you die happy knowing it’s true
That I meant nothing, nothing to you
From all these knives in my back tonight
It’s not hard to see
That all these lies led to your demise
Now you’re dead to me
And when you’re rotting inside your grave
Know I’ll be smiling as you decay
It might be tasteless to hope it’s soon
But youth is wasted on scum like you
You are nothing but a coward
And now everyone can see
Just you try and play the victim
You took everything from me
When my fucking heart was broken
I guess that’s what friends are for
Now my fucking eyes have opened
You are rotten to the core

Everything Ends
07:04
|
|||
All I know is I’ll always wonder why
We had to say goodbye
Just like roses with temporary lives
We blossom just to die
When everything is ending
Before we cease to be
I hope that you remember
How much you meant to me
You said you’d never hurt me
You said we’d never end
If nothing lasts forever
Why do we all pretend?
I don’t know if I’ll ever see the light
The darkness is too bright
Just like roses with temporary lives
We blossom just to die
If only things were different
If broken hearts could mend
Would we still be together
Would I still be your friend
You said you’d never hurt me
You said we’d never end
If nothing lasts forever
Why do we all pretend?
