Glass House

Shrouded in clouds of decay
Perpetual gaze
I'm drowning in waves of thoughts
Of better days
But you could never keep me from ever
Reaching the next level
Get expelled from my cerebellum
Demons and villains
A premonition
My own abyss
This is amiss
If death is bliss
Why do we even fucking exist
Remember this
I told your fucking God he's a bitch
I'm sick and tired of this shit
And you can suck my dick
I prayed every day for death
'Cause death is better than this
My room illuminated
By a light that's hard to resist
As real as it gets
I'm chasing every pendulum swing
It never quits
Engrave your fucking name in the wrist
The rest is history
And every day it still gets the best of me
Thought my ghost was inside
But it seemed that he died
Right next to me
Heresy
Impossible for you to comprehend
Said it once and I'll say it again

A slip of the tongue
Or a slit of the wrist
Who could ever predict
That we could never be missed
Under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine
Can we rewind
Heaven can wait
And we kill to believe
And we travel by shadow
Until you tell me to leave
Now I'm back under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine

Anticipating
My eternity fading
Am I all that I portray
Or am I simply masquerading
Dedicated to fabricating
A multiple facade
We are hated and antiquated
To deafening applause
But I'm starting to grow
In ways you couldn't relate
I see my fantasy dying
With every breath that I take
And every move that I make
How could home feel so alone
Where I sit and atone
For the stones I've never thrown
I just wanted a light
To be shone in my direction
That didn't imminently
Demonstrate my imperfection
Why am I so fascinated
By the harrowing guilt
Of the knife in my back
That's buried down to the hilt
Bigger pictures and better things
Beholden the truth
The golden era is over
So say goodbye to the youth
Nothing new
Look in the skies
See the venom in disguise
Over time I was never surprised

A slip of the tongue
Or a slit of the wrist
Who could ever predict
That we could never be missed
Under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine
Can we rewind
Heaven can wait
And we kill to believe
And we travel by shadow
Until you tell me to leave
Now I'm back under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine

A slip of the tongue
Or a slit of the wrist
Who could ever predict
That we could never be missed
Under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine
Can we rewind
Heaven can wait
And we kill to believe
And we travel by shadow
Until you tell me to leave
Now I'm back under black light
Looking for time
Where is the star that I needed to shine
