you are a person i dont want to be
you're cruel
vile in your monstrosity

cast away by the world
always so alone
it's all your fault
there's no good in your bones

protecting me for yourself
fighting me and yourself
lighting every fire
walk away
walk away from me

i dont know what i see
i dont know what to believe
i dont know who i am
i dont know who you are
all i know is how to deceive

the lights are off
no ones home
only broken bones
and the insanity

the lights are off
no ones home
only a broken heart
and the irrationality

impulse impulse
keep me grounded
impulse keep me keep me grounded
impulse impulse
keep me safe and sound

keep my feet on the ground
bring my head back from the clouds

locked away
locked away
struggling to breathe

locked away
locked away
struggling to see

this lock and key
the only safe place for my sanity

what a messed up world
brought out the monster in me

crashing
colliding
all these feelings inside me

no secure outlet
at least not one i've met
