lyrics

and it can be hard to swallow when your mouth is full of rotten words

a man with high hopes sets sail on a sea of lost dreams deception waves of fallacy (heh)

HEY YOU SIGN YOUR SOUL AWAY

id carry this weight alone but these wavves (heh 2) have swallowed me whole

There's safety in numbers
(buying or selling)
unwanted eyes look down on me
(on every mountain that i have come to walk)
to shiver in the cold
(a false claim to acceptance)
permits a life alone
(for faded glory)

and you shoveled it's path
but ive chose to walk this tired road

because this tree i've grown
is growing on it's own

but if left unwatched
you'd burn down every fucking branch
and if left unnoticed
you'd sell the root to every seed.

hey you sign your soul away

and i guess it's human need
to feed on other beings

you've opened doors you cant close
i guess the end begins

and it can be hard to swallow
when your mouth is full of rotten words and expiration

claiming it's life at sea
(and i've come to recognize)
a bite to heal a salted wound
(the shadow of the man behind it's greedy eyes)

but i wont take my medicine (because it's children's Tylenol idiot)
ill take my chances on the road ahead.

as it's thoughts grow more extreme
it's mind attracts that bitter green

and i've come to recognize
(cause i'd rather be fucking dead)
the shadow of a man behind it's greedy eyes
(then act in a play where the curtains never close)

cause i wont take my medicine
ill take my chances on the road ahead
cause id rather be fucking dead
than act in a play where the curtains never close
