How to Live Forever

If my soul would one day die
Of course I live forever
Words they never fade
And the thoughts would last forever
If my body one day die
How the fuck I live forever
Echos one day fade
And the fog clear up on the mirror

I've been feelin' like shit as of late
And it's funny on the day people callin' me great
This depression shit boosted from like an 8 to 10
It's got me wonderin' now if there's even a point to making friends
It's just more people to disappoint before I make amends
Or fake offense, or block you all now, like I'm on defense
But I guess it depends, only wear a suit and tux when it's come to an end
Shootin for a couple bucks, so why pretend
When I come in, I swear I could hear a pin drop
Lookin at me, like don't you know we closed shop?
I'm just an extra on set so the show stopped, ratings flopped
So now the only thing next to my face - is the knot

How do I live forever just knowing what I fucked up
They told me find my place, the sacred place that I done usurped
Too much on my plate, the gluttony just lead to destruct
Self annihilation - the self reflection I done reluct and I

Can I even feel joy I've never known?
Worked myself to the bone, bared my soul
But what do I have to show?
What more can I give? What more can I be?
How do I live
Rope - tightly constricted, checked off the only name on my hitlist
The man in the mirror the only witness, to what this is
And even he couldn't care less if he wished it
Lips of death, well he kissed it, and though his brain insisted
His heart knew that he's a sick kid, spirits never lifted
Unless it's in the glass, cold as ice when it pass
This is sin at last, waiting for the skipping class, to hit the flask
But it runs right through like I'm made of bones
Feeling just as hollow as an evicted home
Or like a king who never could sit on throne
Is it possible to be surrounded and still alone?

How does it feel, seeing all that I've been?
Many vices I have known (these days I'm drowning in my sin)
Such darkness seeping from within (from within)
Escaping my soul

Feel the echos in this room
Hear the loneliness as a group
I feel like I can't resolve
This bitter feud

Why can't I love the people in my life?
And be content with the things that I do?
Why do I trust this path I choose?
Where will it lead me, what good will I do?
