Darling, where'd we go?
How am I supposed to know
The lay of the land?
None of this was planned
Darling, why the fight?
I'm barely upright
I don't understand
My brain's own demands
Darling, give me strength
Go to extra lengths
To talk down to me
Until I'm empty
Darling, simmer down
I'm coming around
I finally see
It's not about me
I'm not gonna shut my mouth
I'm gonna bleed all of my weakness out
You know that I won't choke this anger down
I'm gonna drown out every other sound
I'll burn you to the ground
Don't try to laugh
Don't try to have your own thoughts
Be who you are
Only as a last resort
Don't try to speak
Don't try to think; I've got this
Our time has come
Go limp and numb
Kinesis...

A Mouthful of Lungs

I'm back on my feet
But a mess of hair and teeth
I've fallen in line
I'm no longer so inclined
I'm breathing the day
Trying to get through today
A mouthful of lung
Waiting to be told I'm wrong
Tell me how to act
I'll put my feelings away
Tell it like it is
Or there'll be hell to pay
I'm broken inside
But I take it in my stride
I'm spittle and salt
It's nobody else's fault
I'm losing my skin
But it's holding nothing in
I'm losing the fight
There's no world beyond tonight
I walk away
I'm alone this way

Your face is on my mind
Your voice is in my head
Your barbed and rehearsed lines
Wishing that I was dead
I close my eyes and see
A chorus of phosphenes
A smile with too many teeth
Ready to snap at me
Your troop of giggling fools
Contort reality
They keep changing the rules
No sense of honesty
I turn my back and smile
So many things to say
But they'd be wasted, so I'll
Speak out another day
Just believe the lie
Avoid looking me in the eye
Don't have the urge to fight
I'm not that kind of guy
And if you need me too
I'll pretend I'm not over you
Let people think it's true
But if they only knew
They'd turn the other way...
We've both seen better nights
We've both seen better days
There's lightning in my brain
I've got electric skin
Expectations remain
Mediocre and slim
It's relentless and cold
There's nothing in your eyes
A black encrusted soul
A vapid, shallow mind
Your agenda is clear
It's etched on your face
Motivated by fear
You need to win this race
I try and pull away
I try to move along
I take it day by day
I'm working to stay strong
Your heart is barely a muscle
It's atrophied and it's chasmal
You don't even amount to
Nothing
Nothing
'Cause you're nothing...
Nothing
'Cause your nothing
