The Depths

Lyrics

Intro ("Breaching, breaching, breaching, breaching") "Sir, we have landed…um…we have a problem…" "The crater!" "This is much bigger than we'd thought…" "It's, uh, it's inscribed with some type of ancient hieroglyphics, it reads…" I saw the evil in a man when I was four years old, oh how that changes a soul I saw the evil in a man when I was four years old, oh how that changes a soul I saw the evil in a man when I was four years old, oh how that changes a soul (Everyday is subliminally the reaper's enzyme) I saw the evil in a man when I was four years old, oh how that changes a soul (Everyday is subliminally the reaper's enzyme) I saw the evil in a man when I was four years old, oh how that changes a soul (Everyday is subliminally the reaper's enzyme) (Everyday is subliminally the reaper's enzyme) Verse 1 To an extent, I'm mentally insane I push my body past the limits of David Blaine I now know unseen connections of the human brain So I hope you can hear the pain as I strain to chain Thoughts into extraordinary from the plain I've lived my life against the grain So the possibility of being normal I have slain I'm a citizen but I brought out my instincts of a can-(Kane)-ine I'm, way to vein I'm, something like a (dark knight) like Wayne I aim, to give everyone the whole world like Garth and Wayne To understand that last line you have to let the whole album play It's the moral behind all the shit that I say Sometimes what comes from my lips is arcane But I'm trying to pop my knowledge off like the top of champagne So I can't be normal, I must abstain But at the same, time try and contain The pOWer of my brain I can't allOW it to end with a chrome bang Against the temple of my cranium Sometimes I think my brain is too dangerous Sometimes it would be easier to just mangle it But I can't because I want to ordain Equity on this planet we domain I've studied Cobain I'm way more insane I've been treating myself inhumane Force-fed myself a 24/7 migraine I need to muster my strength and regain Myself, I need to explain my distorted levels I have gained Ya'll don't know what the fuck goes on in my head I'm in The Depths of the moon's terrain Chorus I'm in The Depths of my mind Listen to what I say, treat it like a shrine I'm in The Depths of my mind Please don't live your life my way, but take notes of what I find I'm in The Depths of my mind I'm drunk and high, all of the time Running away from things I've seen that horrify I'm in The Depths of my mind (Run!) I'm in The Depths of my mind Verse 2 I'm so empty and alone Who the fuck would've known? I spend my time in my home Hiding from my phone I'm scared of picking up and becoming another one of society's drones Sucked into images, logos and colognes I'm homegrown, from inside the unknown I'm in my zone playing with keys and tones I don't go outside much anymore I stay away like clothes in drawers And then I unfold inside of these chords I don't rain(reign), I pour I'm not a king, I'm poor I turn everything into the Devil's front door What the fuck is wrong with me? My life is like the leaves on a tree Every spring I find new things I change their colors then let them fall As the breeze from the season of my feelings This shit goes way deep in I don't know how to tell you or where to begin I'm trying to signal out these raps are beacons I need sexual healing This porn is no longer appealing But I keep the tape reeling I can't escape this basements ceiling I've never really had a healthy relationship I think it's me, myself and I until my heart quits Ain't that a bitch, I look in the mirror And see a twenty year old peer Who hasn't accomplished shit, god damn it Nick… Chorus I'm in The Depths of my mind Listen to what I say, treat it like a shrine I'm in The Depths of my mind Please don't live your life my way, but take notes of what I find I'm in The Depths of my mind I'm drunk and high, all of the time Running away from things I've seen that horrify I'm in The Depths of my mind (Run!) I'm in The Depths of my mind Verse 3 My apartment is so dusty, I can barely breathe My throat is so crusty, I can barely drink My mind is so rusty, I can barely link Thoughts together, wha-what was the next letter? These backwoods been getting lonier by the day I been getting lonlier every word that I say These walls have been squeezing closer every day A lot of dead thoughts in my ashtray I was born a genius but I've been throwing myself away Potential doesn't mean shit if you let it stray I been getting too fucked up too much on Tuesday Stuck inside of the motto of "I'll do it another day" God damn it Nick, you need to get the fuck up today Everybody's got problems, quit falling like autumn You need to go back to awesome Before you splat on the bottom Overcome your mental goblins These are robbing you of your morals replaced with toxins You got an option, you can win…or settle down with your losses My knuckles snuggle on the shovel Digging diamond into rubble Wipe the sweat from my stubble Buckle down on the double I watched myself crumble down and tumble with life's puzzle I learned subtle trouble's at the end of the tunnel I threw myself up, I lost a lot of muscle I put myself down, I gave in to the struggle I need to grow up, come back with a hustle Put my foot on the ground, start to run my rebuttal I've been sitting here, thinking about what to do Staring at myself while I sip this eighty proof Is it too late? Is it too late? Running through these new days My life is shoe laced I been acting two-faced Upside down like pineapple fruitcake I need to find a new place And settle down with a good girl with a cute face I think it's time to pack my suitcase Cause I been smoking so many blunts I got a toothache Drunk and high all of the time To run away from all of The Depths in my mind (I got Peter Pan's tool in hand Running it against my neck to feel the cold metal on my glands) (x2) It was then I blacked out…
