Lyrics

[Verse 1] Gone, I couldn't murder your promise Right before my eyes The revolutions of my psychosis Kept me outta the way Once inside, all I hold is ash Fall, suppressing every feeling I'm in so much pain I have every fuckin' right to hate you I can't take it [Pre-Chorus] The hardest part was knowing That I could never be you Now all I do is sit around And wish I could forget you [Chorus] My demise, I took a life worth living And made it worth a mockery I deny, I fold, but they keep on coming [Post-Chorus] (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me [Verse 2] Who are you to me? Who am I to you? Is this a lesson in nepotistic negligence? By default, you are my only link to the outside Psychosomatic suicide Where were you when I was down? Can you show me a way To face every day with this face? Goodbye [Chorus] My demise, I took a life worth living And made it worth a mockery I deny, I fold, but they keep on coming [Post-Chorus] (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me [Bridge] Oh, when I blur my eyes, they make the whole world breathe I see you fucking me And I am absolutely controlling every urge to mutilate The one and only answer, so much for memories I wanna dress in your insecurities And be the perfect you, I'm through I'm outstretched out for all to loathe Here we go, the ultimate irony Yeah, yeah, yeah [Chorus] My demise, I took a life worth living And made it worth a mockery I deny, I fold, but they keep on coming [Post-Chorus] (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me (Stop) I'm always ready to die But you're killing me [Outro] (Stop) Killing me (Stop) Killing me (Stop) Killing (Stop) me Killing me
