Watch Me SinkA breaking in spirit, a breaking in promise, a breaking in meHow can I find the peace inside me, in a world I can see That's taking and taking all for ourselves, taking and taking And it's dragging me down, deeper and deeper Watch me sink like a stone In a sea of selfishness Where me is more and you is less The vanity, it becomes insanity We eat the shit that's fed to us We stomach it, and we embellish it And we confuse our love with lust Cant we find another way? The way that goes against the grain Abstain, the grain Abstain, abstain, abstain, abstain The grain The ugliness, licentiousness The love that is just skin deep Please get me out Before I become just a memory of what I used to be Get me the fuck out We're deaf and blind to a age's cry We refuse to fucking hear Not learning to grow, just losing the one I used to see in the fucking mirror The egoists, the narcissists The shallow waters wade in Please get me out Before I become just a memory Of what I used to be Get me the fuck out "Of a world that's doing its best Night and day, to make me everybody else" Please take me out Of a world without any heart Take me out When they see my hope and rip it apart Take me out Of a world we built to serve our selfish-fucking-selves Can you tell me Where does love fit in? Remember what love is? |
