You build me up to spread me thin
You fan the flame just to smother it
You shed a light, then let it dim
You pull me down to the black abyss
Been stuck in this dark zone
With how cold this heart's grown
Pick up another piece to fall apart
Falling deeper as I creep into the catacombs
But you don't even know the half
When you're thrown out in a world just to write your epitaph
Never looking back cause they never gave a chance
When they promised you the world but delivered petulance
It's not hard to be jaded
When their shades of jade made you take on their hatred
A weight never lifted a burden, erasing
All feelings of hope and left feeling forsaken
But now I'm awakened
Lost sight but I'll never be mistaken
To build my energy up just to let you take it
And know it's something that you'll never get away with
You build me up to spread me thin
You fan the flame just to smother it
You shed a light, then let it dim
You pull me down to the black abyss
See you crafting a mask
What's the tragedy? I'm here for a laugh
Tear me down build these walls up
Let you show me how you really wanna act
Left the dirt in the past but you're digging up graves, shovel, let's get to it
You wrote the book on how to feel useless
Drag us all down when it comes down to it
And I won't bite my tongue just to let you feel strong
The hate you bred has lived in your blood all along
And you can wait all you want to hear my swan song
Let it all fall, out the dark I crawl
What's an egotist to their own downfall? stupid
You build me up to spread me thin
You fan the flame just to smother it
You shed a light, then let it dim
You pull me down to the black abyss
Blot out the sun, freeze me solid
Shackle my mind with your toxin, it's catabolic
Shred every atom in my body 'til I'm catatonic
Tell me is this what you wanted?
You're so f*cking toxic
You're so f*cking toxic
Bite your tongue until you taste the blood
Feign the love, don't make a problem for us
You build me up to spread me thin
You fan the flame just to smother it
You shed a light, then let it dim
You pull me down to the black abyss
You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it
You shed a light then let it dim
But there's no doubt I'll get out of this
I'm crawling out of the black abyss
I'm crawling out of the black abyss
