Lyrics: Alex Cohen
Music: Steve Almon
Drafting my eulogy,
A scream, pins and needles bursting at the seams,
I move through novelty,
this ego searching for relief,
voices tell me where to go,
Is it me or is it someone that iv yet to know?
Stretching methodically through each piece of my mind,
Neurological decline,
Sparse are the days where the rapid decay, move on through the phantom that'll carry away,
My grasp is slipping with the hands of time,
What will heal my mind?
You say you'd do anything to help me,
But when I'm reaching out for help you Desert me,
Cold natured world on display,
Is there anybody out there who can tame this rage?
Sinking slowly to the depths of the monster,
Half alleviated unmotivated to stop her,
You want it? You got it,
The worst in me is coming and it's too late to stop it,
See the world through my eyes,
Now testify to the pain inside,
You take my world, fit it in the palm of your hand,
Moving every facet for your entertainment,
Tell me all about myself like you know me,
A statistic in a book not a heartbeat,
Not a heartbeat,
I need help,
I need peace,
I can't ignore all the signals around me,
These signs keep pointing towards your demise,
Im not fine,
See the world through my eyes,
Now testify to the pain inside,
Testify,
Why am I here?
What is my purpose?
Life makes me nervous,
And I don't deserve this
You bring out the worst in me,
You'll shove my demons in my face,
When my own I cannot tame,
Losing grip on reality,
Keeping it together yeah I try and try,
While everyone around me lives a lie,
Can't make the same face,
Trace the same lines,
Move out of my way while there's still time,
See the world through my eyes,
Now testify to the pain inside,
This world could pull me down into my grave,
But Iām Taking you with me.
