Exhausted Empty - Demo Version

Helpless me I'm wavering
It falls apart as I lose it completely
And frantically I try to keep
The hardest parts to myself and it kills me

And suddenly I can't breathe
Caught in the open
But my joints are frozen
Unbuttoning and pulling strings
Constricting is fear
Which conflicts with the calling

Will I escape the atrophy
Or will it kill me slowly
My heart is tearing at the seam

Expectations are nothing but fables
There's no safety outside of the cradle
Abdication is always available
Where there's identity there's always betrayal

And suddenly I can't breathe
I'm caught in the open
But my joints are frozen
Unbuttoning and pulling strings
Don't try to catch me
If you see me falling

Will I escape the atrophy
Or will it kill me slowly
My heart is tearing at the seam
Exhausted empty

Exhausted empty
Exhausted empty

Block the decay
Before it reaches the bone
Before it reaches
Nothing's the same
Something's breaching the code
Something's breaching
Lost in the grey
Where is the monochrome
Where is the monochrome
Dying to wake
There's no more sleeping to come
There's no more sleeping

Will I escape the atrophy
Or will it kill me slowly
My heart is tearing at the seam
Exhausted empty
The answer's right in front of me
But I'd rather suffer silently
Another day wasted on a dream
Lucid and lonely

Exhausted empty
Exhausted empty
(Don't try to catch me)
(If you see me falling)
Exhausted empty
Lucid and lonely

There's no more sleeping to come
No more sleeping
