lyrics

Don't say anything
I know you know anyways
You don't have to say anything
I know, you know

Just let me lose hope for a while
I'm so tired of wearing this godawful smile
No tears, my eyes stay dry
I write to keep the right to stay alive

You papermade prophecies
In my dry-skinned hands
Waiting for things to fall into place
Without a need to understand

Mechanical, worn-out and thin
I'm no stranger to things that live under this skin
And consequences of where I have been
Stay within, within

It's the knot where all threads meet
It's the wound that refuses to stop to bleed
It's the sickness corrupting my head
Doubts eating their way through my stomach like rust instead

I'm sorry to disappoint
And I'm so sorry for letting you down
And I'm sorry for hiding inside
With those words I can't seem to spit out
Until I find a way
I will have to carry them around.
