Deconstruction
Taking one step forward
Feels like walking off a cliffside
Two steps back is safer
But it feels like I've defaulted
Incubated slowly
Under artificial torchlight
Each endeavor I ascribe to
Dissipates as I implode into my mind
Life goes on
With or without me here to stay
I need you here
Time flows on
With or without the words I say
I need you here
Breaking down
Foundational pillars holding up decaying architecture
Falling down
This irrational fear of failing keeps me from blowing this all to hell
Life goes on
Lost in my thoughts
As if they're not just looping feedback in my head
Taking a shortcut leads me to nowhere fast
Habits made of stone
Can't be cut by broken glass, held tight in my hand
If this is all I have
I'll arm myself for battle
Walk me to my end
But I won't go without a fight
I won't go without a fight
Even if I'm doomed to spiral down
And resign my hope to an earthly grave
Life goes on
With or without me here to stay
I need you here
Time flows on
With or without the words I say
I need you here
Breaking down
Foundational pillars holding up decaying architecture
Falling down
This irrational fear of failing keeps me from blowing this all to hell
Blow this all to hell and back, hell and back
Blow this all to hell and back
To hell
Feels like walking off a cliffside
Two steps back is safer
But it feels like I've defaulted
Incubated slowly
Under artificial torchlight
Each endeavor I ascribe to
Dissipates as I implode into my mind
Life goes on
With or without me here to stay
I need you here
Time flows on
With or without the words I say
I need you here
Breaking down
Foundational pillars holding up decaying architecture
Falling down
This irrational fear of failing keeps me from blowing this all to hell
Life goes on
Lost in my thoughts
As if they're not just looping feedback in my head
Taking a shortcut leads me to nowhere fast
Habits made of stone
Can't be cut by broken glass, held tight in my hand
If this is all I have
I'll arm myself for battle
Walk me to my end
But I won't go without a fight
I won't go without a fight
Even if I'm doomed to spiral down
And resign my hope to an earthly grave
Life goes on
With or without me here to stay
I need you here
Time flows on
With or without the words I say
I need you here
Breaking down
Foundational pillars holding up decaying architecture
Falling down
This irrational fear of failing keeps me from blowing this all to hell
Blow this all to hell and back, hell and back
Blow this all to hell and back
To hell
