If I stall
if I repeat
and if I sink right down to the street
and if I hold myself up to the moon I'm see through
if I come to see defeat
lying fetus in the street
and if i fold but if I don't play I can't win
I can't win
I really don't want to try
it's just too cold in the air
upset about my robotic life
and how nobody cares that they're stuck in theirs
As I fall in bittersweet
into the past ominously
and when the fog lifts
and when the light hits the mist it's spinning
spinning
I know this came right from you
I know your not the one
your false idols
your setting sun
the morning star has just begun
to start descending
Bitten
and falling back
sin
bad
even though you couldn't be
you serve one day
the evil and dead
i went to take cover
so one day
fall away and get back
even when it doesn't tell you why
it tears you down
even though I'm one
as you ask you keep coming back
but your cut in half
and the form is bad
I was done
comin
