The Nihilist

Do you wanna test if I'm bulletproof?
Cuz I don't care if the bullet's repelled
Or engulfed by my skin,
The debris of our hopes rain down from the sky
And crash hard on this world that we're burning,
Do you wanna test if I'm bulletproof?
Cuz a gunshot would hurt me no more
Than the words I hear daily,
I haven't taken a breath in years,
I'm trapped underwater, I drown in my tears,

Watch your cities burn to the ground,
You're so useless without your crown,
All your systems crumbling down,
All you do is watch, nothing can help you now,
Watch in horror as your gods rain death and disease
On your harvest of lies,
Watch your seas run dry,
See the last bird fly,
As our mother dies,
Children suffering in the broken streets,
Listen closely to their cries,
I stand above your world as it burns
Right before my eyes,
I am the nihilist,
I am the nihilist,

Come let's find out if I'm bulletproof,
The worst that'll happen is silver piercing my heart,
We can hope that my splattering blood
Paints the grey of the world,
God knows do we need some real art,
We all know I'm not bulletproof,
But just for fun let's pretend I won't die if you shoot me,
Just to see the fake shock on your face
When I'm down on the ground with a smile,

Watch your cities burn to the ground,
You're so useless without your crown,
All your systems crumbling down,
All you do is watch, nothing can help you now,
Watch in horror as your gods rain death and disease
On your harvest of lies,
Watch your seas run dry,
See the last bird fly,
As our mother dies,
Children suffering in the broken streets,
Listen closely to their cries,
I stand above your world as it burns

Right before my eyes,
I am the nihilist,
I am the nihilist,

A demon came to me in my sleep,
He told me to ask as I please,
I asked him how much pain can a man fucking take?
And he started to sob on his knees,
You must rest soundly thinking inside
That you broke my heart with ease,
I wish upon you cursed dreams,
Cuz what you broke was me.

Excuse my memory,
I must've lost track of all the times I warned you,
But I'll never forget the spot in my mind
Where I buried myself,
Fuck

Watch your cities burn to the ground,
Oh, you're so useless without your crown,
All your systems crumbling down,
All you do is watch, nothing can save you now,
Watch in horror as your gods rain death and disease
On your harvest of lies,
Watch your seas run dry,
See the last bird fly,
As our mother dies,
Children suffering in the broken streets,
Listen closely to their cries,
I stand above your world as it burns
Right before my eyes,
I am the nihilist,
I am the nihilist.
