I cut myself to Zeppelin in the bathtub late at night
Stairway to Heaven is my muse
Carving out the darkness on my arm
I try to fight
I can't stop my hatred and abuse
Sitting with the bubbles, the red soaks into white
Like a meteor to dinosaur, my bubbles fade in disguise
The switch is facing south so you won't notice all my shame
But really I can't see
The blades guide my lines of pain
Take away the silent woes and strip away the skin
Please let my numbness settle in before I begin again
No apologies needed, no not for myself, but maybe one
You are whom
Forget what I've said cause I'm fine in the end
My smile's the best lie for you
Awake every night
The dreams have all faded
So why can't I lie here in peace
My cup runneth over, but I've got my flask
The room spins
I'm a masterpiece
Continuing nightmares
The mares of the night will contort their hooves by firelight
Let fire burn me
I'll feel something, finally
Or maybe divinely, I'll leave here untimely
Cover up my pain
A smile would do for you
Cover up my name
Addiction is my excuse
Take away the silent woes and strip away the skin
Please let my numbness settle in before I begin again
No apologies needed, no not for myself, but maybe one
You are whom
Forget what I've said cause I'm fine in the end
My smile's the best lie for you
I'll walk on the water's surface to avoid drowning alone
If I call a friend, will they hold me under, and bring me my cargo
What year will be on my tombstone
What year will be on my tombstone
Ninety-three, then it's left to me to choose when I'm buried alone
Take away the silent woes and strip away the skin
Please let my numbness settle in before I begin again
No apologies needed, no not for myself, but maybe one
You are whom
Forget what I've said cause I'm fine in the end
My smile's the best lie for you
So bye bye
I'm fine
The best lie for you
Bye bye
I'll be fine
The best lie
Adieu
