Metabolic lyrics

Gone - I couldn't murder your promise

Right before my eyes

The revolutions of my psychosis

Kept me outta the way

Once - inside - all I hold is ash...

Fail - suppressing every feeling

I'm in so much pain

I have every fuckin' right to hate you

I can't take it!

The hardest part was knowing that I could never be you

Now all I do is sit around and wish I could forget you

My demise - I took a life worth living and

Made it worth a mockery

I deny - I fold, but they keep on coming

(Stop) I'm always ready to die

But you're killing me

Who are you to me? Who am I to you?

Is this a lesson in nepotistic negligence?

By default, you are my only link to the outside

Psychosomatic suicide

Where were you when I was down?

Can you show me a way...

To face everyday with this face - goodbye

My demise - I took a life worth living and

Made it worth a mockery

I deny - I fold, but they keep on coming

(Stop) I'm always ready to die

But you're killing me

When I blur my eyes, they make the whole

World breath - I see you fucking me

And I am absolutely controlling every urge

To mutilate - the one and only answer

So much for memories...

I wanna dress in your insecurities

And be the perfect human - I'm through

I'm out-stretched out for all to loathe

Here we go - the ultimate irony
