Step back, watch it burn
Ignite our world with hatred and loathing
Walk into the blaze
Kneel down, praying water will drown
And wash away every mistake to break the cycle 
That has left us feeling dead and forsaken
Look back at what we've done
No reason not to run
I can feel my heart prolapse
Love begins to collapse
Why be at war when we don't know what we're fighting for

When I look inside myself
The darkness is overwhelming
It seems there's nothing there that resonates with my desires
I'm bleeding for your affection
I'm pleading for your connection
I'm not getting through
Transmission lost with all foundation

When I look into your eyes, I see nothing
Nothing but pain and anger
That brings suffering

I am dying for your embrace
But we have fallen right out of place
When will all of this pain secede 
How can all of this be erased?

When I look into your eyes, I see nothing
Nothing but pain and anger
That brings suffering

Step back, take a breath
Before you do something that you will regret
Tears roll down your cheek
Sadness, thinking of the madness
That we have created, becoming content with all of the overflow
Look back at what we've done
No reason not to run
I can feel my heart prolapse
Love begins to collapse
Why be at war when we don't know what we're fighting for

Take back everything we said
If words were bullets
Every single shot would leave us fucking dead
Trigger, pull it, shoot it
Pull the fuckin trigger
Bullet
Bite the lead until your teeth are shattered
Into a million pieces
Murder this life that we've built together
Set in, dead in stone
Why can't we seem to correlate
And resonate together on a wavelength flow of harmony
Temper, anger, fury
Pull the fuckin trigger
Tongue
Bite your tongue until your words don't matter
And blood drips down from your lips
Bury these memories that make up the story of us
They're all dead now

Step back and watch it all burn
We've ignited our world with hatred and loathing
And as we walk into the blaze
We kneel down, praying the water will drown
And wash away every single mistake

When I look inside myself
The darkness is overwhelming
It seems there's nothing there that resonates with my desires
I'm bleeding for your affection
I'm pleading for your connection
I'm not getting through
Transmission lost with all foundation

I am dying for your embrace
But we have fallen right out of place
When will all of this pain secede
How can all of this be erased
When I look into your eyes, I see nothing
Nothing but pain and anger
That brings suffering
