Bottom
My compassion is broken now. My will is eroded,now,
Desire stolen, now, and it makes me feel ugly.
I'm on my knees and burning.
My piss and moans are the fuel that set my head on fire.
So smell my soul burning.
I'm broken, looking up to see the enemy.
And I have swallowed the poison you're feedin' me ...
but I survive on the poison you're feedin' me,
and i am guilt fed, hatred fed, weakness fed..
it makes me feel ugly.
I'm on my knees and burning.
My piss and moans are the fuel that set my head on fire.
It makes me feel dead inside.
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up at the bottom.
If I let you, You would make me Destroy myself
In order to survive you, I must first survive myself
I can sink no further and I cannot forgive you
There's no choice but to confront you,
To engage you,
To erase you.
I've gone to great lengths, to expand my threshold of pain;
I will use my mistakes against you.
There's no other choice.
Shameless now, nameless now, nothing now, no one now.
But my soul must be iron cause my fear is naked.
I'm naked and fearless, and my fear is Naked.
Dead inside.
Dead inside.
Dead inside.
Dead inside.
Nameless now, shameless now, nothing now, no one now.
Shit adds up
shit adds up
shit adds up
shit adds
You see me naked now, fearless now
naked now, fearless now
shit adds up,
shit adds up,
shit adds up,
shit adds up
shit adds up
It leaves me dead inside
Dead inside,
dead inside,
dead inside.
Hatred Keeps me alive,
Happiness keeps me alive,
Weakness keeps me alive
Guilt keeps me alive
At the Bottom.
