Lost in my mind in my body in my soul, I don't know what I want anymore, but isn't that how the world crumbles I need people in my life. Friends, lovers, enemies, anything. Feeling like **** is still a feeling, and boy am I swimming in it. Maybe my prospects are potential crutches for me, letting me move forward. Why should I help myself when I can instead help others? How can a businessman expect to succeed when his heart speaks louder than his mind? Let me swim in a sea of tears, drown in a river of blood. When did I become such a broken, sad man? Simpler times call for simpler pleasures, of which I have neither. Breathe into me the spirit of life and watch me choke on it and perish. Bottle up your feelings and put them on a shelf for everyone to see. Drink out of the bottles and think fondly of those memories.

Heart, Beating Me to Death
Lost in my mind in my body in my soul, I don't know what I want anymore, but isn't that how the world crumbles I need people in my life. Friends, lovers, enemies, anything. Feeling like **** is still a feeling, and boy am I swimming in it. Maybe my prospects are potential crutches for me, letting me move forward. Why should I help myself when I can instead help others? How can a businessman expect to succeed when his heart speaks louder than his mind? Let me swim in a sea of tears, drown in a river of blood. When did I become such a broken, sad man? Simpler times call for simpler pleasures, of which I have neither. Breathe into me the spirit of life and watch me choke on it and perish. Bottle up your feelings and put them on a shelf for everyone to see. Drink out of the bottles and think fondly of those memories.
