WELCOME (THE RABBIT HOLE)
If I hummed you a lullaby,
Would the tears still leave your eyes?
When you go to sleep tonight,
Don't put up a fight
Welcome to the darkness
Welcome to the show
Follow me down deeper in this hole
God stopped listening a long time ago
I can't find
I'm losing me again
This torture never ends
I'm not mine
My thoughts are running blind
I feel it all the time
Welcome to the darkness
Welcome to the show
Follow me down deeper in this hole
God stopped listening a long time ago
So heartless now
Tell me what you know
Six feet deep in the rabbit hole
God stopped listening a long time ago
Im deprived --
My senses, only 5
Organic narrow mind
Chasing lies
That are always on my mind
I feel it all the time
If I cried you a siren's song,
Would your need for me still long?
When you shut your eyes for good,
You'll do as you should
Welcome to the darkness
Welcome to the show
Follow me down deeper in this hole
God stopped listening a long time ago
So heartless now
Tell me what you know
Six feet deep in the rabbit hole
God stopped listening a long time ago

GHASTLY
My stomach's acidic from caffeine and stress
The lining is ruptured and under duress
Everything's basic but hard to endure,
So my mind's a rock and my heart's a stone, but I feel it all in my gut when I'm alone
It's a sinking feeling in my skin,
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal
So come and dance with me tonight,
And you'll feel alive
Ill tell you everything's alright
While you're deprived
It's a sinking feeling in my skin,
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal
I've given up on giving chances
I'll keep me to myself;
Am I jaded if I'm green? Do I glisten if I gleam?
Am I screaming all alone, with no one on the phone?
(Overgrown) and growing faster
(Overgrown) into disaster
(Overgrown) the voices say
(Overgrown) I've got hell to pay
But with life's expectations, I'm not most favored nations
Im too big for my bones and so scared I'll die alone
It's a beating feeling in my bones,
That numbing pain that stings so cold
Ever changing yet standing still
It comes in waves, it comes for the kill
It's a sinking feeling in my skin,
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal

LOVED TO DEATH
I'm just trying to tell you I'm not myself tonight
When you reach out I'm pulling away
My colors fade to gray
The feeling is fleeting
Nonverbal, demeaning
And I'm your canvas
Terse words are revealing
They cut through my being
The tone's backhanded
Everything's horrible all the time
Pain is divisible by basic rhymes
You'll dig your ditch, never content
Til' you fill the hole with my blood and sweat
I'm just trying to tell you I'm not myself tonight
When you reach out I'm pulling away
My colors fade to gray
I keep myself pale when you're blood red
Cause your lingering lips are always wet
You see the devil in the details but I'm broad in your head
So paint me with projections and love me to death
The fixture is bleeding
Framed picture's deceiving
The ending's joyful
Your hurt is expressive
The need so excessive
Forever loyal
Everything's horrible from all sides
When the weight of the world sits on your mind
You'll grieve the man I never was
'Cause we're all very wrong about so much
I'm just trying to tell you I'm not myself tonight
When you reach out I'm pulling away
My colors fade to gray
I keep myself pale when you're blood red
Cause your lingering lips are always wet
You see the devil in the details but I'm broad in your head
So paint me with projections and love me to death
