Another Life

(album: The Place I Feel Safest - 2017)

You felt the slow-motion dream
You knew the consequence
A quick fix, you're worry-free
What's the difference?
A pierce of the flesh
You sealed her death
It should be you who's not breathing
You felt the slow motion dream
You knew the consequence
A quick fix, you're worry-free
Floating on top of the world as her soul leaves her body
I feel something change in me

You made your bed, always strung out, and ignorant
Living in excess only to be suppressed
You'd be surprised just how fast your life can turn around
You try to run but it's too late to take it back now
You think you've seen it all?
You think you've seen it all?
You're just in time to watch the whole thing fall
You're just in time to take the fall

In death, solace follows
The final product of your mistakes
The dream is dead, another life laid to waste

In testament to your failures
The final product of your mistakes, another life laid to waste
She wasn't a saint but you still pulled her in
you still held her so close to your heart
now you say that you weren't involved
and that's the way things ended up, it was never enough
Now you're left to wander finding no solace inside a broken world
You're a subject to your deceit
I won't let you get the best of me
You're a subject to your deceit
I won't let you drag me down into your misery!

You say that that's the way things ended up, it's never enough
I bet it's hard to be a father when you're always out shooting up
If you ask me, I find you fucking disgusting
it's not worth remorse or saving, you're a subject to your deceit

If this is how you wanna live your life
then understand that you won't survive
to see a second of peace inside this sick
sad world of your own design
Desensitized
