(Don't) Save Me

I saw through all the bullshit even when I was young
Why are we so guilty from what we haven't done
I have a case of anger and I know I can be better
But it won't go away
My medicine is just a simple slap in the face

Bury your words
Through the scars in my chest
I'm in pieces
You can cut and hurt me just like the rest
But I was made to build
What was broken inside
I will grow and never be confined

What else can I say
Without repeating from the grave

Cut out the sounds and distractions
That pollute my brain
Spewing chemicals
All we do is breathe, ignoring pain
I look in the mirror and see the true enemy
My legacy's ignoring my identity
Through all the preachers that add to the fire
Your safety blanket religion's a liar
Earth is paved over
In gravesites and cigarettes
The caskets are ashtrays
From the ground it collects

These demons woven in are
Fucking relentless

Bury your words
Through the scars in my chest
I'm in pieces
You can cut and hurt me just like the rest
I try to blame it on everyone else
Hypocrisy is practicing deceit on myself
Strip me down
To just my soul and my skin
I thrive for the feeling of being human
These visions coming out of me
As a scream
This imagery's my ecstasy
In making memories

With my psychoactive cage
Inside my brain
With my psychoactive rage
Insult my name
With my psychoactive cage
Inside my brain
With my psychoactive rage
Insult my name

Break me up inside
I feel like nothing tonight
With remedies in mind
It's taking longer to feed the high
It's all I'll ever need
It's all I'll ever be

Can the days please stop repeating
The years that pass are fucking fleeting
Give me a remedy that'll put me to sleep
I'm high as I'll ever be
Death won't get the best of me
Haze, the dreadful daze
Sleep seems to evade so I dismay
I dig my grave
It all fades away as I slowly decay
Lock that shit away for another day
So don't save me
This is my identity
So don't save me
This is my identity
So don't save me
