[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] I don't need'ta tayke a waulk, Seriously, I don't wanna go n' pray, Ever since the day ya' left, I've been skippin' down tha drain, Don't wanna do anythin'. [Verse 2] What am I suppose to do? Who am I suppose to be? M'uy soul's dissolved, In all this solvent, When they put you six feet deep, Along with pieces of me. [Post-Chorus] And now I'm runnin, On hollow feelings... [Chorus 1] The day I lost you, I lost myself, You left me with open wounds, Hemorrhagin' on'a shelf. Bury me deep, With all my memories, Keep me dreamin', Until death comes to coll–ect me—ee! [Verse 3] How can the sun go down, When my eyes are opened? Your time was stolen, Broken, corroded—frozen in moments, I'm copin, while chokin—my hope went——when your soul left, All my breath... Slipped outta my chest... Without you...—nothing's left. [Verse 4] I don't sleep at home, I live at your grave, Nothing feels the same, Without you by me, I might as well be,—just a livin' disease. [Post-Chorus 2] Now I'm suff–o–ca–ting— On ev–er–ee–thin'... [Instrumental Build-Up] [Chorus 2] The day I lost you, I lost myself, You left me with open wounds, Hemorrhaging on a shelf, Bury me deep, With all my memories, Keep me dreaming, Until death comes to coll–ect me—ee! I just don't know, How far to go, Until I fall. Eyes goin still, In this silence... The quiet, Is too violent... It crushes, The best of us—grinds into dust, The peace, You keep, Leaves— All of us——sufferi—iin'! [Instrumental Solo] [Final Chorus] The day I lost you, I lost everyfin', Cataclysmic sufferin', Every second of the mornin', Constant reminders–strewn about, Like dirty laundry! This head I live in, It's wreckin', my thinkin', Is sinkin', tied to bricks n', I'm neva missin', when nobodies lookin' For reasons to bring you up, Drudge your sunken cemetery, Crack open that ancient coffin. [Instrumental Break] That laugh, yeah, Without that, Magic of a pautnauship, Blinkin' out of existence, It's livin' with noffin', Missin' somethin', For lovin' the best one, That's stolen, The glow n', Before leavin', Emptied me of, All that was family. [Instrumental outro]
