lyrics

A fantasy to vanish. These notes don't seem to hit, they just crash into a jaded ear, fall to the venue floor, and shatter like a lens that captured your secret rituals.

It gave you wasted gasoline. It gave you wasted time. And it all adds up, adds up to subtract you. The shame of it all is a weight that fractures your fragile chest. An act of contrition that you think you deserve.

The survival instinct can flicker out. Just try to protect yourself.
