Album: 10.17.09
a breaking in spirit, a breaking in promise, a breaking in me
how can i find the peace inside me, in a world i can see
thats taking and taking all for ourselves, taking and taking
and its dragging me down, deeper and deeper
watch me sink like a stone
in a sea of selfishness,
where me is more and you is less
the vanity, it becomes insanity
we eat the shit that's fed to us
we stomach it, and we embellish it,
and we confuse our love with lust
cant we find another way?
the way that goes against the grain
Abstain, The Grain
abstain, abstain, abstain, abstain
THE GRAIN
the ugliness, licentiousness,
the love that is just skin deep
PLEASE GET ME OUT
before i become just a memory of what i used to be
GET ME THE FUCK OUT
we're deaf and blind to a age's cry
we refuse to fucking hear
not learning to grow, just losing the one
i used to see in the fucking mirror
the egoists, the narcissists
the shallow waters wade in
PLEASE GET ME OUT
before i become just a memory
of what i used to be
GET ME THE FUCK OUT
"of a world thats doing its best, night and day,
to make me everybody else" -ee cummings
please take me out
of a world without any heart
take me out
when they see my hope and rip it apart
take me out
of a world we built to serve our selfish-fucking-selves,
can you tell me
where does love fit in?
remember what love is?
