death is life, is death, is life, is death, is life is-
they're carving my name in the grave a gain
the flowers are fresh and their faces wet
my body has died but I'm still alive
look over your shoulders I'm back from the dead!
I fear I wont live to see the world tomorrow,
someone tell me if this is hell.
I have to escape this void there is no other choice.
Trying to turn off the voices the void ate me .
Leeches surrounded, my conscience is throbbing.
I cant sleep at night I hold my pillows tight.
Caught in the rivers of the tears that I cried.
Bountiful harvest they flock to my garden-
push their way inside I go run and hide.
I used all my words for a quick game-
blew it all before you won.
I speak in cursive, I'm poignant, assertive-
there's musical chairs in my teeth.
Poke me to battle I'll jump on the saddle.
I'll smile as you fall to your feet.
And they talk without thinking, they bark while they're shaking-
with teeth that are round and dull.
And they yell while they're chasing-
while I'm steady pacing,
my syllables hit the floor!
Ribbons tied around like a noose-
wonder if I'll ever get loose.
I don't want to bruise for you-
holding back my words until my face is blue.
I don't really care about your crew-
you can tell them what you wanted to!
bones are crushing-
bodies touching-
blood is pumping-
feeling nothing-
I will not suffer,
cry under covers.
Damaged oddity bought by Sotheby's-
auctioned to the selfish man who thinks that he's the prophecy.
I'm hauling an outdated shell help me let go!
The walls around me are so close-
caving in.
Some of the friends that I thought were forever,
I now want to severe the ties.
The seats have been spotted I'm no longer doubting-
I think its finally time.
Pluto destroy me, **** me off slowly.
I'll bathe in my ashes and rise like a phoenix.
Show me who I am becoming.
Show me the demons I'm hiding.
I'm turning to expired roots-
help me move on!
There's nothing in this tired town for me no more.
What was once a home is a hell I cant imagine.
So send me out packing it up.
Everything is blurry I don't want to worry.
The pain from this growing is rough-
pluto destroy me **** me off slowly.
I'll bathe in my ashes and rise like a phoenix!

You pull me by my hair so I don't go nowhere
Tell me you love me, but you treat me like I'm never there
You say the cruelest words, you used to break my heart
'Cause I'm over here working my *** off
Why is it so hard to see? (Why?)
If I cut myself, I would bleed **** me)
I'm just like you, you're like me
Imperfect and human, are we?
Show and tell
I'm on display for all you ******* to see
Show and tell
Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me
Buy and sell (buy and sell me, baby)
Like I'm a product to society
Art don't sell
Unless you ****** every authority
You beg and cry for more, he had 'em on the floor
There are strangers takin' pictures of me when I ask "No more"
It's really hard for me to say just how I feel
I'm scared that I'll get thrown away like a banana peel
Why is it so hard to see? (Why?)
If I cut myself, I would bleed **** me)
I'm just like you, you're like me
Imperfect and human, are we?
Show and tell (show and tell)
I'm on display for all you ******* to see ******* to see)
Show and tell (show and tell)
Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me
Buy and sell (buy and sell)
Like I'm a product to society
Art don't sell
Unless you ****** every authority
Show and tell
Why can't you ******* hear me?
Show and tell, um
Are you listening yet?
Show and tell (show and tell, baby)
I'm on display for all you ******* to see ******* to see)
Show and tell (oh)
Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me
Buy and sell
Like I'm a product to society
Art don't sell
Unless you ****** every authority
