UFO Party 04:02
Waiting for that final day I get the unmarked grave So here’s my last reward for years of suffering Too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself Buried alive with my thoughts long ago Suburban mausoleum I once called home No doors and no windows allowed Surviving on whispers and rumors for now See all these places that I used to know Withered and crumbling memories made of stone What’s left but the deafening sound Of emptiness filling the air all around The stars I used to believe in Nothing but satellites, uninspiring machines, deceived Waiting for that final day I get the unmarked grave So here’s my last reward for years of suffering Too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself Poorly written poetry, a worthless eulogy With zero volunteers to carry me away Too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself Always a sucker for heart wrenching hope But somehow terrified that I’ll die alone My fault not wanting to be found Hide and seek champion, 3 decades down Lack of attention, I’m starved to the bone A self-inflicted, kind of tragic syndrome Autopsy shows nothing resounds In my head the echoes have all faded out The stars I used to believe in Nothing but satellites, uninspiring machines, deceived Waiting for that final day I get the unmarked grave So here’s my last reward for years of suffering Too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself Poorly written poetry, a worthless eulogy With zero volunteers to carry me away Too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself I was always too blind to tell, I sank this fatal knife in myself

Nostalgia Born out of Cities that don't exist Don't look, don't speak Why don't you wanna be Around me now Breathe toxins Bleed tension Household built of stress Don't look, don't speak No, I don't wanna be me Drowned in doubt Twenty-four hours awake and I'm numb Where are the dreams I used to love Down at the bottom, no way back up This time I'm giving up I'm giving up Heartbeat skips again and again Anxiety so loud I'm giving up The self-loathing party never ends So scream with me as we go down Relinquished to the night I told you I'll be fine Feels more alive Cuz now I've decided Tonight in my mind I'm giving up What I want's Not enough Guess I'm just obsessed Don't look, don't speak Why don't you wanna be Around me now Relive some Old trauma Things you should forget Don't look, don't speak No, I don't wanna be me Drowned in doubt Forty-eight hours, sleep wouldn't come Fated to be the afterthought A walking cadaver, drained of all blood Inside I'm giving up I'm giving up Heartbeat skips again and again Anxiety so loud I'm giving up The self-loathing party never ends So scream with me as we go down Relinquished to the night I told you I'll be fine Feels more alive Cuz now I've decided Tonight in my mind I'm giving up Cuz now I've decided Tonight in my mind Twenty-four hours awake and I'm numb Where are the dreams I used to love Down at the bottom, no way back up This time Forty-eight hours, sleep wouldn't come Fated to be the afterthought A walking cadaver, drained of all blood Inside Heartbeat skips again and again Anxiety so loud The self-loathing party never ends It never ends Relinquish to the night I told you I'll be fine Feels more alive Cuz now I've decided Tonight in my mind I'm giving up Cuz now I've decided Tonight in my mind

The sun goes out, colder hearts now reign They’re always hunting down our last mortality We’re easy prey We’re running now and they’ll make us pay Producing every cure we’ve all been forced to take They know your face We’re never satisfied, the endless Games and the chasing What happens now If I end the games we play, the chase? Illusions, seduce us We’ve got no backup plans, all stuck in our own heads Illusions, we’re all entranced Caught in a night we never want to end We all break down and sometimes we stay Down underneath the ground just hiding far away The easy play Akin, no doubt, but we’re not the same Enticing us with sounds of love, I can’t relate They know our names We’re never satisfied, the endless Games and the chasing What happens now If I end the games we play, the chase? Illusions, seduce us We’ve got no backup plans, all stuck in our own heads Illusions, we’re all entranced Caught in a night we never want to end Never want to end Caught in a life we never want to end Never want to end Caught in a life we never want to Illusions, seduce us Illusions, seduce us We’ve got no backup plans, all stuck in our own heads Illusions, we’re all entranced Caught in a night we never want to end Illusions, seduce us, we’re all entranced Illusions, we’re all entranced Caught in a night we never want to end They know your face

With every step I hear you calling out Are we falling out You said I'm with you till the end of the line But would you scream my name Blood soaked outside in the pouring rain I'll make you pay for this mess you've made I'll make you pay for this mess you've made If you saw me in a dream Would you pass me by Would you even know its me After all this time After every promise made Every single lie You have to settle this with me Thought we knew one another So what's left to say (I'll make you pay for this mess you've made) Thought we could hold one another There's no other way (I'll make you pay for this mess you've made) With every step I hear you calling out Are we falling out You said I'm with you till the end of the line But would you scream my name Blood soaked outside in the pouring rain I'll make you pay for this mess you've made Thought we knew one another So what's left to say (I'll make you pay for this mess you've made) Though we kill one another There's no other way I'll make you pay for this mess you've made With every step I hear you calling out Are we falling out With every step I hear you calling out Are we falling out You said I'm with you till the end of the line But would you scream my name Blood soaked outside in the pouring rain I'll make you pay for this mess you've made (It's all we ever dream) (It's all we ever) With every step I hear you calling out Are we falling out You said I'm with you till the end of the line But would you scream my name Blood soaked outside in the pouring rain I'll make you pay for this mess you've made

Eternal night, but we don’t need sleep Can’t shut your eyes because out here all lights are shining Everyone’s dying, but nobody leaves Lamenting skies pouring down, this city’s been crying Are you searching for another pretty face? False angels, so fatal Are you really going non-stop, till you got it now you caught it, just lose it on top One more step away, you can finally taste it, you made it Feel it flowing through your veins, rivers of fire, desire There’s no denying, you’re in it too deep Don’t try to hide it because out here all lights are shining We’re out of time, our future’s too bleak Electric skylines falling down, this city’s been crying Are you searching for another pretty face? False angels, so fatal Are you really going non-stop, till you got it now you caught it, just lose it on top One more step away, you can finally taste it, you made it Feel it flowing through your veins, rivers of fire, desire All this worth the pain, for so long you’ve waited, now take it Feel it closing in again, thirsting like fire, desire All lights are shining Are you searching for another pretty face? False angels, so fatal Are you really satisfied to end it all this way? Are you searching for another pretty face? False angels, so fatal Are you really satisfied to end it all this way? One more step away, you can finally taste it, you made it Feel it flowing through your veins, rivers of fire, desire All this worth the pain, for so long you’ve waited, now take it Feel it closing in again, thirsting like fire, desire False angels, so fatal False angels, so fatal

Cold Blooded 03:38
Tucked away, far away again Never should have walked these halls at night Tell me why I deserve this Follow footsteps dripping wet with spite Hide away, far away again Can’t escape the grasp of fate or time Six feet down feels like heaven Hell is knowing that you’re still alive Stuck in the gravity Pull me out, don’t pull me under Am I worth saving? Lost within a dream And now she comes for me Won’t I fade just like the others? Ivory hands, choking Find me in your dreams Cold blooded affection, love me like a ghost Hoping there comes a day you can forgive me I’m here waiting Hold me so endless, tracing every bone Watching as I decay, relive my mistakes Right here waiting Stuck in the gravity Pull me out, don’t pull me under Am I worth saving? Lost within a dream And now she comes for me Won’t I fade just like the others? Ivory hands, choking Find me in your dreams Cold blooded affection, love me like a ghost Hoping there comes a day you can forgive me I’m here waiting Hold me so endless, tracing every bone Watching as I decay, relive my mistakes Right here waiting I’m here waiting Right here waiting

I’d give every moment spent with you For one chance to finally disprove That I’m nothing special at all Emotions like glass At the end of everything, hold on to anything Always held me back At the end of everything, hold on to me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless Every day feels perfect, every night I’m downing pills just to sleep Come lay down, daydream with me Tonight, promise me you won’t be late Attend my debut symphony of shame Tell me I’m not special at all My heart breaks at last At the end of everything, hold on to anything Lullaby of death At the end of everything, hold on to me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless Every day feels perfect, every night I’m downing pills just to sleep Come lay down, daydream with me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless It’ll feel so perfect when I bring this city down to its knees Come lay down, daydream with me

Late night You told me that you're done with this game It's 3am and I go searching your name It's toxic, but I'll do it the same The same Late at night, it's toxic, but I'll do it Late at night Late at night Late at night, it's toxic, but I'll do it Toxic Through a screen, feel your chemistry But I'm just another face, not a memory (meant to be) It's a blood pact promise that I made with myself Yeah, my friends all tell me that I need to get help Digital make believe, repeating every word you sung about Classical tragedies, running through my feed, and it makes me wanna Take back every word I typed on my phone, ‘cause you’ll say it’s in my head, screaming Leave me alone (me alone) Late night You told me that you're done with this game It's 3am and I go searching your name It's toxic, but I'll do it the same The same Make me your enemy, put me on every blacklist that you make If it’s not meant to be, you could set me free, and Know I'd take it back… maybe I won't do it again You can call me when you want, maybe more than just friends? (Than just friends) Late at night, it's toxic, but I do it Late night You told me that you’re done with this game It's 3am and I go searching your name It's toxic, but I’ll do it the same The same I try to find a way to forget the pain But every thought of you, it drives me insane It's toxic, but I’ll do it the same The same The same I come undone, each thread you pull cuts deep and now I can’t Outrun this mess I’ve made Can’t take it back, baby, ‘cause I’ll do it again You can call me when you want, maybe more than just friends? Late night You told me that you’re done with this game It's 3am and I go searching your name It's toxic, but I’ll do it the same The same Late night You told me that you’re done with this game (this game) It's 3am and I go searching your name (name) It's toxic, but I’ll do it the same The same The same I try to find a way to forget the pain But every thought of you, it drives me insane It's toxic, but I’ll do it the same The same The same

Chrysalis 03:52
Hold still, I can see through you Believe in nothing but bad news The breathing had slowed, gasping below Emotions implode, it’s not reality Cry if it’s hurting you Regret, there’s nothing left to do There’s no way to cope with this I’m hoping I don’t explode, this can’t be happening I don’t think I’m ready for this Can I put it off? I’m counting Hour by hour gone Couldn’t stop myself from breaking Worst of all I can’t replace the Hours, the hours lost Stay with me tonight Please don’t leave me behind Heart beats just a bit too soon Shaking, lost and so confused The breathing had slowed, gasping below Emotions implode, it’s not reality Dread the day I always knew Lay here, I’ll wait it out with you There’s no way to cope with this I’m hoping I don’t explode, this can’t be happening I don’t think I’m ready for this Can I put it off? I’m counting Hour by hour gone Couldn’t stop myself from breaking Worst of all I can’t replace the Hours, the hours lost Stay with me tonight Please don’t leave me behind Stay with me tonight Please don’t leave me behind Hour by hour gone Hours, the hours lost Stay with me tonight Please don’t leave me behind

I’d give every wasted day with you For one chance to show what we all knew That I’m nothing special at all Emotions like glass At the end of everything, hold on to anything Always held me back At the end of the everything, hold on to me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless Every day feels worthless, every night I’m calling death in my sleep Come burn down this world with me Tonight, promise me you won’t be late Attend my final symphony of shame Tell me I’m not special at all My heart beat goes flat At the end of everything, hold on to anything Lullaby of death At the end of everything, hold on to me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless Every day feels worthless, every night I’m calling death in my sleep Come burn down this world with me From victim to villain, it’s a consequence Of seeing these visions where I’m not useless Every day feels worthless, every night I dream I’m finally set free Come burn down this world with me Come burn down this world with me

Acknowledge the open mouth but ignore virtue dripping out A thirst in an endless drought, they’ll kill us all A message now multiplied what feels like several thousand times I’ll hear yours if you’ll hear mine, against all odds We’re all screaming Are we all just noise, static voices Always screaming Cancel out the noise, the voice Are you speaking, can you hear me? No one believes me anyways, I guess I’m better never chasing the dream Can’t you hear me as I fade away? There’s always someone else to blame, don’t interrupt me when I’m digging my grave Can’t you hear me as I fade away? I’m willing to close the shades, it’s dismissive but feels safe My only choice left to make, it’s all I’ve got Your words say you’re on your own, signals censored, the truth postponed Save your tears you’re not alone, it’s all you’ve got We’re all screaming Are we all just noise, static voices Always screaming Cancel out the noise, the voice Are you speaking, can you hear me? No one believes me anyways, I guess I’m better never chasing the dream Can’t you hear me as I fade away? There’s always someone else to blame, don’t interrupt me when I’m digging my grave Can’t you hear me as I fade away? Are you speaking, can you hear me? Are you speaking, can you hear me? No one believes me anyways, I guess I’m better never chasing the dream Can’t you hear me as I fade away? Are you speaking, can you hear me?

Am I real? Will I bleed? Was it worth it? Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect It’s in the code, it’s in my head Broken flashbacks, every attack, fades to black for me It’s in the wires, it wants me dead And I’m yearning for an answer, hard truth, simulated Am I real? Will I bleed? Was it worth it? Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect No, I can't be the only one Feeling lost, with nowhere to run In the dark, reaching for a purpose Hold me close, tell me I’m not worthless Every night, it's a loaded gun Pull the plug, on what I’ve become Bleeding out, maybe I deserve it Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect A fractured ghost in this machine With a hack that, tracing each path, brings you back to me I can’t escape, this neon dream And if anything could happen, two souls, vindicated (And if anything could happen, two souls) No, I can't be the only one Feeling lost, with nowhere to run In the dark, reaching for a purpose Hold me close, tell me I’m not worthless Every night, it's a loaded gun Pull the plug, on what I’ve become Bleeding out, maybe I deserve it Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect It’s a curse, that I can’t outrun Cut the cord, and I come undone Take a look, can't you see I'm hurting ‘Cause inside, of my mind, I'm burning Every night, it's a loaded gun Pull the plug, on what I’ve become Bleeding out, maybe I deserve it Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect Am I real? Will I bleed? Was it worth it? Hold me close, tell me everything is perfect Is it original sin that makes me plead, me plead?
