I surrender
To this suffering
Post-traumatic
Life, that's full of shame
Save me from this
Path of growing hate
Burn the bridges
Fall, beneath the weight

This is my wake
Cleansing all of the scars
Cauterizing deep wounds
I've left behind
Is this my fate
Bleeding out from the heart?
Tunnel vision; train-wreck
I'm gonna die

Floating
Into the sky
Absence of mind
I say goodbye

Floating
Into the sky
Pain won't reside
Mental rewind

I surrender
To this suffering
Post-traumatic
Life, that's full of shame
Save me from this
Path of growing hate
Burn the bridges
Fall, beneath the weight

But listen to me now
I am calling
From this grave
The beyond is
Where I am falling

I've seen the truth despite
These wounded eyes
Cast aside your favorite guise

I seek an archetype
One can't define
No end in sight
My soul is drifting
Until my palette's wiped
Colors decide
Foresight within bleak existence

Designs' divide
Midnight's respite
Wasting my time
Within these confines
Not all stars burn bright
In dying light
