Lyrics

[Verse 1] The chair's been kicked A rope tied to the rafters Blue-faced and broken-necked, I sigh Relieving my vision from the sick mocking stare Of that hated sun burning the sky Slumped like a headless scarecrow Cold and limp against the wall Blood paints a pattern of rorschach's design Thawing the winter that burdens this heart Shit-stained and shameful An exit in disgrace Not a splash, but just a ripple left I end this life in vain In vain [Verse 2] In the dead of the darkness I breach the still lake Toward the reflection of the moon The night-colored liquids arresting my lungs Finally at peace in this watery tomb Destroy this fragile body To be gorged upon by worms Not a splash; just a ripple is left In the wake of my merciless scorn [Chorus] Beyond those cursed stars above Lies the answer that I seek On the backs of bullets rides my name Longing to kiss my cheek Resentfully decline Retire this hated life Without guilt I break these veins Carved with salvation's knife [Verse 3] Turn not away Avert not your face This is how it was meant to be In silence found hanging there 'bove a pool of waste The beauteous workings of mortality No one can truly touch another Parallel never to cross Pointless fumbling, sad mistake Only capable of pain [Chorus] Beyond those cursed stars above Lies the answer that I seek On the backs of bullets rides my name Longing to kiss my cheek Resentfully decline Retire this hated life Without guilt I break these veins Carved with salvation's knife [Outro (Fades out)] Beyond those cursed stars above Lies the answer that I seek On the backs of bullets rides my name Longing to kiss my cheek Resentfully decline Retire this hated life Without guilt I break these veins Carved with salvation's knife Beyond those cursed stars above Lies the answer that I seek On the backs of bullets...
