Now

Welcome to my home and I'm mad

I can't draw out the past and I

Can't leave this vision out of my mind

And fate

Had taken her by the throat

I can't get her back and I've tried

To seek the salvation that I find so delectable to me

So I have taken all the tools from my body and my brain

I carved a canvas for the blood that remains

When will you return to me?

My God

Why can't we be?

I've traveled through tunnel visions and slowly the tunnel gets colder!

(Colder!)

(colder!)

I RIDE!

I can't believe that you're gone

When will the pain stop haunting my life and blaming me

I fell too far to tell if I'm dead or alive

I can't look back on everything

Because your corpse is running for me

You like the thought of a fright

In layers of fear tonight

I

Am driven by your cries

I tread through this broken foundation

To seek the broken lies

What's more

Is all the suffering in my head

Will take countless hours to recreate

Yet nothing steps in my way to creating works of art

So I began to take a dive into the deep

I couldn't turn back

Put my body to sleep

Relentless submission drove me to the brink

My God

I've run out of ink

My art is now complete

Yet the layers of fear get colder!

(Colder!)

(colder!)

I RIDE!

I can't believe that you're gone

When will the pain stop haunting my life and blaming me

I fell too far to tell if I'm dead or alive

I can't look back on everything

Because your corpse is running for me

You like the thought of a fright

In layers of fear tonight

First I looked for a canvas

But not just any canvas

I needed a jar and plastic tubing

I sucked on it until the blood filled my mouth

I needed to remove the flesh from the bone

It made for a lovely undercoat

I had a special brush

Like a horsehair brush but different

I needed something to add the final touches

I needed a finger

Finally, someone had to bear witness

A critical eye on things

I gouged it out

Oh god

I felt like a monster

I traced your beauty but

The memories remain colder

(Colder!)

(colder!)

I RIDE!

I can't believe that you're gone

When will the pain stop haunting my life and blaming me

I fell too far to tell if I'm dead or alive

I can't look back on everything

Because your corpse is running for me

You like the thought of a fright

In layers of fear tonight

Layers of fear tonight!
