Manic
I've been spending most my nights on the edge
Wishing I could let you in, but you won't understand
Spent my days the past few years pinned in rid
The stress and the weight of the world
Changed the locks inside my head
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
The curtains close on another day
Everyone's been asking how I've been
But, I got nothing to say
I'm a cold dead hand steady gripping the past
And at the rate I'm going I'll never make it
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
Behind the veil of complacency
Solitude is all that remains
Revealing the grim shade of darkness
That defines the man behind the mask
Can't clear my head it's all a mess
I'd give it all for one more breath
Of air with a sign of hope
That would lift this hand from off my throat
So many masks change through time
Reflection glitches, blurring the line
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a shell of a man picked clean by wolves
Fending for what's left
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
Wishing I could let you in, but you won't understand
Spent my days the past few years pinned in rid
The stress and the weight of the world
Changed the locks inside my head
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
The curtains close on another day
Everyone's been asking how I've been
But, I got nothing to say
I'm a cold dead hand steady gripping the past
And at the rate I'm going I'll never make it
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
Behind the veil of complacency
Solitude is all that remains
Revealing the grim shade of darkness
That defines the man behind the mask
Can't clear my head it's all a mess
I'd give it all for one more breath
Of air with a sign of hope
That would lift this hand from off my throat
So many masks change through time
Reflection glitches, blurring the line
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a mess, I'm a mess, I'm a mess
I'm a shell of a man picked clean by wolves
Fending for what's left
All my life I've been living to die
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Over and over and over
Here's the show baby, step inside
Hands unsteady, hearts on fire
So put the lights up on me
