Weighing out, out another one, at the worst time in front of everyone
See the sun, and I won't let go, the wires pull me down - they pull me down a hole
Foolishness; it's inevitable, even with your wits, you're still vulnerable
See the cut, right inside my eyes, I'm not looking at you - this is just a disguise
So much of you now has gone to waste and it's something else
Contrapasso now, we meet again - just to see what it's like, just to feel it again
I assume the dirt underneath my feet isn't leveled out
Conscious burns a path just to let me out
Please don't freak out, just melt in
Sick and showing signs of it, just lean in
Lay those flowers at the door
You won't be home til' at least four
When you think you’ve won
everything feels side ways
even though it was my way, I was silent
See you then, Guess I won’t look around
Your breath still reaks of grouse,
keep my eyes to the ground
Fooled them all, that was inevitable
but I still don’t know how to get over it all
