This is the story of a man that I know A man with a heart of gold But a body becoming weak And a mind that let him go This is the story of a man and his wife And how she died of that same disease How he stayed with her after her spirit left But he won't remember her death and It's a deadly dull Like a sword stuck in its sheath A mind once sharp and full Now clouded and diseased What's it like to be erased every time you fall asleep? Waking up as a clean slate without a sense of reality? And will I end up the same way when I grow old and turn to grey? As time leaves me behind to fade away, away This is the story of a man that I know He knows my face but he doesn't know me Pretends he does every time we meet And puts his questions on repeat Like, "are you staying out of trouble? What's the plan? Can we go see G-Ma down the street? When I saw her last she didn't say much of anything But if I were there think how much better it would be" (Life with a heavy soul) This break the news a few times a week And every time it's followed by the same thing (Death by a deadly dull) He sits outside and stays quiet for a while And forgets and goes to sleep (Life with a heavy soul) Will that be me eventually? (Death by a deadly dull) Will that be me? It's a deadly dull Like a sword stuck in its sheath A mind once sharp and full Now clouded and diseased What's it like to be erased every time you fall asleep? Waking up as a clean slate without a sense of reality? And will I end up the same way when I grow old and turn to grey? As time leaves me behind to fade away, away

Lips bleed from the rings All these little bruises The little things That provoke the segregation Lead the separation Cage and clip the wings Little noises The little screams That's not the operation Conscious amputation Just do what you do, what you do What you did to me Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere With nothing, with no one Just do what you do, what you do What you've done to me Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over Now it's all over Broken heart that's lost its beat A little boy, that softly weeps Overwhelmed with emotion Views burns through explosion Lost the forest through the trees Little whispers, the little dreams That sparked the recollection Constant suffocation Just do what you do, what you do What you did to me Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere With nothing, with no one Just do what you do, what you do What you've done to me Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over Now it's all over I can feel my life is changing (changing) I can feel my heart is jaded (jaded) Left the sticks, left the stones Words don't hurt, mend the bones I can feel my life is changing Just do what you do, what you do What you did to me Now I'm stuck in between a rock and nowhere With nothing, with no one Just do what you do, what you do What you've done to me Draw the chalk line around the scene, it's over Now it's all over Raise the past and leave the pain Cleanse the wounds and forget the name Lost the will, ran far away So, it's all over Spread the ash and fill the grave Lost the tongue and make my way Do what you do and go away Now it's all over

Ever feel like dying? Ever feel alone? Ever feel like crying? Lost child in a store Ever feel life pushing? Shoving you away Ever feel like breaking down? Funeral in the rain Feel like slipping away Stand in the corner and scream with me A body full of empty A head that's full of rage, better believe it Stand in the closet and scream with me A mind that's like a fire Driven by the pain, better believe it Ever feel like lying Down inside a grave? Listen to the eulogy A pyre of the hay Ever danced beside the devil? Taste the barrel of a gauge Ever pulled the trigger? The light begins to fade Feel life slipping away Stand in the corner and scream with me A body full of empty A head that's full of rage, better believe it Stand in the closet and scream with me A mind that's like a fire Driven by the pain, better believe it I've asked you for forgiveness I've asked you for your grace I've asked you for your blessing I've asked that I be saved Stand in the corner and scream with me A body full of empty A head that's full of rage, better believe it Stand in the corner and scream with me A body full of empty A head that's full of rage, better believe it Stand in the closet and scream with me A mind that's like a fire Driven by the pain, better believe it Stand in the corner and scream with me A body full of empty A head that's full of rage, better believe it Driven by the pain, better believe it

In this hole that is me The dead are rolling over In this hole thickening Dirt shoveled over shoulders I feel it in me So overwhelmed Oh, this pressured center rising My life overturned Unfair the despair All these scars keep ripping open Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? In this hole that is me A life that's growing feeble In this hole so limiting The sun has set, all darkens Buried underneath Hands slip off the wheel Internal path-way to contention Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? (Are you) Happy? (Are you) Happy? Are you feeling happy? In this hole that is me Left with a heart exhausted What's my release? What sets me free? Do you pull me up just to push me down again? Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? Peel me from the skin Tear me from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear meat from the bone Tear me from myself Are you feeling happy now? Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy Now that I'm lost, left with nothing? Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy Now that I'm lost, left with nothing?
