Sean Bean 05:14
In my old mind These are the times That I will remember In my old mind I work for my living, do you Blood, sweat, and fear I work for my living, do you Blood, sweat, and fear Dropping to my back Reaching for the stars I dream and I forget The view from my oubliette I work for my living, do you Blood, sweat, and fear I work for my living, do you Blood, sweat, and fear I work for my living, do you Blood, sweat, and fear but no virtue King of nothing King of nothing King of nothing King of nothing King of nothing

Locked in or locked out Decide never or now Drowning in the water You called to quell the flames Consolidate Accept the little victories We're losing the war It's all a trade It's all a trade Single file Fingers tire Busy creatures Make you smile At what cost My hope is lost And all I've given up Overflows your cup And I walk away Involuntarily Haunted by this new reality And now we will never know What was so dire to defend We have reached heaven To find out that everyone's still dead Everyone's still dead

I wanna vacate in your mind I wanna see through your eyes Share a memory with me Show me something I won't believe We'll have no one to blame For noises in this empty home If you go Down the stairs Looking for your cage I didn't know I was saying Goodbye Basking in a warm place Kissed by the sun's glow A serene solitude Where the soft wind blows You're not too far from home But you'll be remembered here You're not too far from home But you'll be remembered here

One becomes two Divided by you One becomes two Divided by you What it's come to Divided by you Please Don't make me let it go Drop the bomb Say the word It's all over One becomes two Divided by you What it's come to Divided by you I've Already let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go

Candlelight beads Sweat to the floor Bleeds through dressings Seeps from every pore Heartbeat Irregular Starving my mind You're making me blind Ominous messenger State of decline In chambers confined Heartbeat Irregular Starving my mind You're making me blind Ominous messenger State of decline In chambers confined Embrace the choir The sacred satire Sublingual words Clutter up my head Do you eat all you're fed Bittersweet lies So vague in their wording Don't you cry The pain means it's working Bittersweet lies So vague in their wording Don't you cry The pain means it's working Heartbeat Irregular Starving my mind You're making me blind Ominous messenger State of decline In chambers confined Heartbeat Irregular Starving my mind You're making me blind Ominous messenger State of decline In chambers confined

Sirens rob your sleep With tremors felt so deep Bearing exhausting heat To never admit defeat Spears of lightning cry Through the blackened sky So sharp is the tongue That so easily lies Ashes in the breeze Spreading the disease Neither right nor fair You can't make them care Now all I can think about Is just how few stars I can see Now all I can think about Is just how quiet it ought to be Now all I can think about Is just how few stars I can see Now all I can think about Is just how quiet it ought to be Ashes in the breeze Spreading the disease Neither right nor fair You can't make them care

There's no stopping the rain Falling down on the earth Floods breaking through the gate A solvent to our fate Time Does not slip away It fades out Between the moments We faintly recall Pattern fades away There's no rhythm to feel Pattern fades away There's no rhythm to feel Without any order to this Only chaos is real Memories Turning gray Hold me close As we decay Memories Turning gray Hold me close As we decay

Mouths contort and words are lost to the ether The floor dissolves and now waves crash beneath her Streaks of starlight erupt through an ebony screen Made it seem the pain was just a bad dream I'm losing a home I didn't know I had Oh, you were right You were right Oh, you were right It was different then We were in delight Now our walls are so tight Our walls of time Mouths contort and words are lost to the ether The floor dissolves and now waves crash beneath her Streaks of starlight erupt through an ebony screen Made it seem the pain was just a bad dream Streaks of starlight erupt through an ebony screen Made it seem the pain was just a bad dream

Try to avoid the corners And stick to the light Treat yourself good And stay in for the night And when no one is looking You might chance a smile For just a short while Purge the ghosts that make you sin And bar the doors from within Don't you stop at that Why'd you come so far Just to breathe out And bleed out To bleed We were excited little flakes Of snow being whirled by the wind Catching crisp gusts in your hair Laughing without a care And when the thaw comes Titanic daisies will grow Hundreds of feet above your head To give shade to moss below Now where did those days go Purge the ghosts that make you sin And bar the doors from within Don't you stop at that Why'd you come so far Just to breathe out And bleed out To bleed How long will I wait Until this is full-blown Don't let me leave this to fate I'm sorry you must go alone Alone

I want to be on the other side Sick of this view through my tearing eyes Clawing back toward the light Earth closing in, but I'm still alive Now I can't breathe Now I can't breathe Now I can't breathe Underground heart Now only for you Only for you Only for you Will I bleed Will I bleed Contaminate This canvas we paint The colors that run And they drip down your face Blood falling down Like beads of rain Saline in your eyes Swear you like the pain Claw off my skin Feast on the flesh The only thing That will satiate A joy so carnivorous and A love so ravenous inside Your underground heart That caves me in Now I can't breathe Now I can't breathe Now I can't breathe Underground heart Now only for you Only for you Only for you Will I bleed Will I bleed
