Needles

Breathe in, self afflicted
Breathe out with needles in my skin
I suffocate
You separate me from everything that I loved

Sat down for another session
Save your breath, there's nothing to explain
I know that you are trapped within and you can't deal
See the life in your eyes, it's slipping away
You know I try but can't even save myself
And though your heart still beats
Another friend has died in front of me

I never liked the way
You cut yourself on the edge of another knife
Wish I could bury this all today
It's like the devil is here to stay
And when you cover up
I think of all the colors of your skin
They blind me from what I need to be
Keep me down inside

I watch as you dance in the fire
Death loves to engage himself in your life
Dead inside
Keeping up with the flames burning higher
Breathing in the delusion I can't fight
That I can't fight

Somewhere in my head I know there's nothing I can do for you
Pushing that aside's the only option I can choose
It feels like needles in my head
God there's needles in my head
God there's needles in my head
God there's needles in my head
I carry every single weight until they burrow in my back
While the air around me thickens and the sky is turned to black
It's like there's needles in my head
God there's needles in my head
God there's needles in my head
God I can't just let you die

God know's I will try
To make this whole thing right
And in the end I feel
The way that you look at me
Make's it all alright

I watch as you dance in the fire
Death loves to engage himself in your life
Dead inside
Keeping up with the flames burning higher
Breathing in the delusion I can't fight
I carry the weight of your heart
So now it tortures mine

Keeping up with the flames burning higher
Breathing in the delusion I can't fight

I can't fight
