Reach

Reach out to the dark
Reach further than you've ever gone

Palpable insecurity leaves a bitter taste in my mouth
There's a resin that glues all the cracks together
Spoiled forever and marked for death
A metropolitan wasteland, and I'm the king
I stayed behind when the world moved on 'cause I knew I could make it come back to life
If only I'd known the difference; pride and persistence
And in retrospect I know what started it all

Oh, it's the poison
Oh, it's the medicine
Oh, the elixir
Oh, the addiction

If I reach out and take what's mine
Am I just tempting fate again?

Liquor turns the blood thinner
Makes my skin thicker
Trying to keep myself inebriated
Chemical compounds to remedy all that I see through
Distorting my vision and bending the truth
Bending the rules that I set myself
Make myself sick

I make myself sick
I tried to cure it
Self-inflicted and self-prescribed

If I reach out and take what's mine
Am I just tempting fate again?
If I reach out and take what's mine
Am I just tempting fate?
