Some other day
I hope I will learn
How to express myself
In a different way
I will have enough courage
To sing about what really aches
And what's inside
Will finally match the outside
And I'll be able to reach
And you'll be able to see
And I'll fit in
But as for now, I really don't know how
To do it properly
And not to feel
So uncomfortable
And so entirely unnatural
So I ended up making a set
Of new water metaphors instead
And I sing about drowning again
Though I've never drowned in my whole life
I'm actually a pretty good swimmer
At least a better one than a singer
But swimming doesn't help much
With things, I don't know how to talk directly about
And so I wish
I'll find a way
But not today
And I wish I could be a little less creative
And stop hiding behind a foreign language
Or at least learn how to use words like love non-ironically

Through Deep Waters
03:41
|

All my fears are non-existent
They are drowning with my friends
At the bottom of the ocean
I know exactly when this all ends
Come closer to me, free from the light
When it gets dark, it feels more like home
Best regards, it'll soon be over
I only see you for what you were
The room is full of liquid
And I am thirsty as ever
I know it's over
I know it's over
Stanger things have happened
But not to me
She's dead but not alone
I'm getting out
Without a sound
Come to the surface
With palms wide open
My ship is sinking
As I'm relearning to swim
Alone
With my only guide, an image
Of something once unbroken
That felt like home

Housebreaking
04:40
|

I'm sick and tired of myself
Failing at housebreaking pets
These pups now turn into wolves
They are impossible to school
Completely untrainable
They shit all over the floor
I just can't take it no more
They've torn apart all my clothes
And they just won't stop barking
I have to put an end to it, one way or another
Cut your right hand to save the rest
I hope you know that it's for the best
You've turned my house into a rat's nest
I think you might know what happens next
"And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell"
I'm sick and tired of myself
As I got rid of my friends
I hoped this mess would've ended
Instead, I've ended up a mess
I guess you were just a part of the problem
Cut your right hand to save the rest
I hope it truly was for the best
We've turned our house into a rat's nest
I wish I knew what is coming next

A rigid noise
An offset
To balance 'tween not being pushed over
And staying calm
Trying to stand my ground
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean back
And watch it all fall
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean forward
And crash the very same wall
I've just finished building
I wanna say
I've had enough
But obviously
I have room for more
I force myself
On things I hate
To cover for
My past and future crimes
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean back
And watch it all fall
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean forward
And crash the very same wall
I've just finished building
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean back
And watch it all fall
Don’t wanna talk about it
Just lean forward
And crash the very same wall
I've just finished building
Crash the very same wall
I've just finished building

"Bless those who curse you"
And "Love your enemies"
Was written in a book I've stolen
I might have been fucked up
A little too fucked up
But it made sense to me then
And kept me going
I turned my cheek and
Took a hit and
Then returned back
To complaining
On and on and on
Sing along with me
Sing along with me
So I can feel less lonely
At least for a moment
Feed my misery
Feed my misery
So I can keep on justifying
My self-loathing
We're on a brink of a big break
Soon everything will surely change
I feel repulsed
By little things
I used to really like
Is it just me
Or has this whole damn place
Turned against me overnight?
I swear can see these fucking walls are closing in on me
As the house is getting ready to throw me up
Sing along with me
Sing along with me
So I can feel less lonely
At least for a moment
Feed my misery
Feed my misery
So I can keep on justifying
My self-loathing
We're on a brink of a big break
We need a little push
A tiny little push
And everything will change
Everything must change

You Know I'm Sorry
01:59
|

I never meant to do any harm
To you or anyone at all
To you or anyone we know
I thought that everything will work out
For the best and as for the rest
You know I'm sorry
I wish there were less violent ways to learn
Defloration of our youth
Deconstruction of the truth
I dropped out and you let go
Loved the only way I know
You know I'm a sucker for concern
I never had what I thought I've earned
I never had reason enough to learn
I'm sorry you’ve burnt your fingers, but I'm the one who burns
It hurts
I burst
Defloration of our youth
Deconstruction of the truth
I dropped out and you let go
Loved the only way I know
Dedicated to a myth
Demolition of beliefs
I am nothing but a man
Love the only way I can

Into the darkness
Who's following whose lead?
I'm so confused, but
Soon enough, I won't be
Talk all you want
I don't really mind
But I still won't listen
I'm deaf and I'm blind
I keep myself busy
Got my hands so full
My vision clears
Divided in two
Surrounded by loved ones
Family and friends
I lied when I said
I want it all to end
Into the blood again
Taking care of myself just like I was taught
Allow me to be afraid
And use what's left to stop
Enter the bloodstream
Into the light, then
Back to dark
I've found myself
But I've lost my spark
If not repulsion
Then what would drive
Me through the bleakness
Of the adult life
Completely stuck in
The day to day
I'm switching shades
Form black to gray
I start a fight
I cannot win
Just to get out of the
State I'm in
Into the blood again
Taking care of myself just like I was taught
Allow me to be afraid
And use what's left to stop
Got a baby devil on my hands
With its devil's little tail
And its devil's little horns
Got a baby devil on my hands
I will treat it like it's my blood
I will nurture it like my own
Got a baby devil on my hands
I will live for both of us now
I will build us a new home
Got a baby devil on my hands
Into the blood again
Taking care of myself just like I was taught
Allow me to be afraid
And use what's left to stop
I will stop for nothing
I have mastered my destruction skills
I really don't need any help
I will stop for nothing
I have mastered my destruction skills
I really don't need any help
I will stop for nothing
I have mastered my destruction skills
I really don't need any help
I will stop for nothing
I have mastered my destruction skills
I really don't need any help
