lyrics

Both my eyes are open
But I’m not awake
My broken heart is bleeding
But this pain feels fake

Beneath this black tie
that holds my spine up straight to this desk
gnawing at my shackled teeth

I am nothing

At night I lie to myself
That there was a yesterday
And in 100 years
Someone will remember my name

All my hopes and dreams
Stapled to this bed
With the fuck all I’m fed
And the shit they said on tv
To make us forget this is real
washed away in the static sea
everything ends

I am nothing

As I walk these crowded streets I am alone
I only feel alive when I’m asleep
I hold an image in my head of who I was
Like a promise I can’t keep

I am nothing

As I wither away
In my self-indulgent hole
I think of might have beens
If I hadn’t lost control

Staring back at the void
Saying nihilism wrong
Because nothing matters
Everything was beautiful
and nothing hurt
So it goes

that is not dead
which can eternal lie
and with strange aeons
even death may die
