The Diamond Ring
(album: The Destruction Of Everything Is The Beginning Of Something New)
I´ll peel back the skin from my head
Let the sun melt you from my memory
I´ll drink myself to sleep and escape
The nightmares of being awake.
I´ll set the air afire.
You never even tried to tell me
What went wrong, what went wrong.
In this train wreck that we built together
What went wrong, what went wrong.
Under shaking skin, underneath it all.
Kill me from within. Kill me, kill me.
You said always.
Steal my breath, taint the air.
Every bone in my body´s been broken
And my life is a jaw wired shut,
My voice is my curse and my shelter from the pain
And I´m breathing carbon just to fall
Asleep at night. Asleep at night.
In this train wreck that we built together
Nothing´s right, nothing´s right.
