LYRICS





Today, up on this hill

I'm counting all the killers

They sway as they swarm

A look of gluttons in their eyes

They mutter as the body loses warmth

They pick your bones like locks inside a tomb

And take great care to not take care of you

Here’s an unexplainable one

Here's an unexplainable one





While I was learning to live

We all were living a lie

I guess you got what you wanted

So I will settle for a slaughterhouse soaked in blood and betrayal

It's always somebody else

Somebody else was me

You want the real smile?

Or the one I used to practice not to feel like a failure?





I don’t need you to do it for me

I don't need you to understand

I don't need you to hide it from me

I just wanna feel like any other man

I won't show you the whole story

I won't show you the aftermath

I won't show you my allegory

Don't look away, here's an unexplainable one





Here’s an unexplainable one

Here’s an unexplainable one





I'm not ahead of my time

I just drew the first breath

If I’m alive tomorrow

I will alleviate the pressure by cutting you out of me

I found my bottom line

Dead on the front lines

I know I'll never go home

So set fire to your ships and past regrets and be free





I don't need you to do it for me

I don't need you to understand

I don’t need you to hide it from me

I just wanna feel like any other man

I won't show you the whole story

I won't show you the aftermath

I won't show you my allegory

Don't look away, here's an unexplainable one





What have you done?

What have you done?

Yeah





Oh, while I was learning to live

You taught me how to die

I guess I got what I wanted

Another needle in the back through purified scarification

It wasn't somebody else

You fucking did it to me

You want a real smile?

I haven't smiled in years
