Alien 04:25
ALIEN A disability, aggravating, conflicting, restricting, self doubt encrypted. Into my mind You see what I see and hear what I hear. But according to you, for me it's still not clear. You spit your words and you say you mean it like this, so where was the part that I missed? We hear the same words so how can it be, that for me, things are not always as they seem? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME? I'm trying my best, to blend with the rest, but I don't want to fit in. I just want to understand, why am I so fucking different? Why am i so fucking different? Social cues, something I never knew Sarcasm, right past me it blew Over enthusiastic, obsessed I live for what I do, don't care to fit with you Don't care to fit with you. See what you see Hear what you hear But for me It's just not clear Why can it be so hard for me to listen, frustrated, I'm gunna fucking lose it. I'll never understand And that's why I'm gunna fucking lose it Alien I feel I let down the ones I love the most, way too much, it's the fucking worst... but sometimes I can't help it and it fucking hurts. Interpreting words and actions like I'm decoding braile. Each time I look, further down I have fell. I hate that I think like this, this series of miscommunications, are nothing but a bitch

You raised me, you made me Only for you to forsake me You only take It makes my heart break things will never be the same On despair, I'm choking our family, is broken Our lives torn open Nothing fixed, no hopin' It only matters what you want You don't give a shit about any of us I can't take this hurt anymore, so now I'm closing the door. No more You won't Hurt me Anymore You were always there Now I look for you, but you're running scared. Father you always said: That you'd love me to the end. Now For myself, I must fend And if nothing changes.. I'll see you when you descend. I admired, respected you For me, you'd make fucking mountains move Now I see you and I don't know who you are, the person I loved, I don't know where they are. No more You can't Hurt me Anymore I'm closing the fucking door. You were always there Now I look for you But you're running scared father you always said That you'd love me to the end Now For myself, i must fend And if nothing changes I'll see you when you descend. When you descend Father Why have you forsaken me? If this is how its going to be I'll see you when we're six feet deep. 6 feet deep, Is where we'll meet Maybe then, we can fucking start again. Father. Why have you, forsaken me?

Feeling like I lose myself more and more everyday, this seems so fucking endless, I'm going insane. Waking up with an ache in my chest, I am miserable at best, I see no future, black and nothingness is what's left for me. What if just give up and let the darkside consume me? I just need a little time, in a world that can't spare a second, feels like I'll be left behind and forgotten. No chance, ONE MIND, ONE PRISON, it has dragged me deep, deep down, and it feels like I'll never get out. I will never get out. Damaged from the blackness, confidence is gone, my heart is torn, happiness is a myth cause I've spent too much time feeling like this. I must have died alone a long, long time ago, cause I'm not the same person that I used to be. I'm not the carefree happy boy that you used to see, been dragged down by the weight of life, from all the shit I've felt, from all the shit I've seen. I can feel it building, inevitable insanity. ENDLESS SUFFERING and insanity. No chance of breaking free I wouldn't be lyin' if I said I hate myself and I, want to die. I hate myself and I want to die See the hope slip right from my eyes i want to die, die, die. I am done with this living hell imprisoned, in my mind I dwell You can't cheat death when you dig your own grave I am enslaved by this darkness. The smile that once was upon my face, through time and torment, it had no choice but to fade. as I lay. and all I can think is I hate myself and I want to die. Die.

Strain, constant strain Emotions of poison shot into my veins. They make me want to hide, never see the light of day. Tense in my shoulders, tense in my soul my muscles tighten as the stress takes hold. Stress and anxiety Wrapped around my throat It wears me down And tears apart my soul It's been this way For so long I can't control it I'm too far gone. FREAKING OUT OVER THINGS THAT SHOULDN'T CAUSE DOUBT EVERYTHING FILLS ME WITH STRESS A FUCKING ANXIOUS MESS You can not see That I'M BROKEN AND WEAK, I always feel like MY MIND IS PLAYING TRICKS ON ME. I'M TAKIN MY OWN LIFE, WITH THE KNIFE I WANNA SLIT MY WRISTS AND JUST FORGET ALL THIS EXISTS TAKE MY OWN LIFE WITH THE KNIFE SLIT MY WRISTS FORGET ALL THIS EXISTS I CAN'T DO THIS I DONT WANNA FEEL LIKE THIS (Dmac) One things for sure, I know I will never get out of this alive. My life expunged, torn from this frail existence. Tar stained lungs, blood stained blades, wreathed in ash. From this fucking burning house, love don't live here no more. Will it always be this way, so manic? cause I can't stand another fucking day in panic. Escape is what I need But I know that I'll never be free from this, anxiety.

Doesn't matter what I do, you and I were too good to be true. You're messed up and I'm fucked up. hate to say it but I miss you so much. I wanted to be there in good times and bad, but things got crazy it makes me sad. I miss those days and what we had. We were a fucking mess, deep in my heart you tore. We were fucked up but we didn't care at all. Alaskan blues I know you're big and bad enough I know you've seen too much, But i just wanted to be by your side But Now I can't look into your eyes. right now I just don't know how to, I wanna talk to you, but right now I just don't know how to, If only you knew how small I feel next to you Alaskan blues I just can't shake this, can't do anything but feel forsaken. Treat me like your dirty little secret But you couldn't keep it Love tore us apart and it fucking destroyed me. Cut me deeper whilst I Lay here slowly dying. I just don't know what to do, even after it all broke me in two, I can't help but still think about you. And so we'll go our seperate ways Live out the rest of our days Maybe one day we'll find some way To not cause each other So much pain.

This world wants everything and I can no longer give it anything. It never stops, these ten thousand fucking thoughts... but you'll never see me live a life, where I remain silent, I am resistance you'll never keep me quiet. Fuck this world for all the pain that you've caused, for all people you forgot and the ones you never gave a chance. From the day that you're born, they take your voice, shaped into something that they can control. don't ask questions, don't break the mold, just do your fucking job and do what you're told. These expectations, never discussed This world has shown me nothing but hate I wish I could be like most and ignore it. but I'm overpowered and overloaded. how long can I do this? My brain in a rut foundations fall apart, nobody gives a fuck. How will I get back up who will help me up? I know it won't be you, you're too focused on the shit that doesn't matter you know it doesn't fucking matter Fuck that shit owwwww. WE MUST WORK TOGETHER, TO MAKE A CHANGE, BEFORE I LOSE ALL HOPE AND BLOW OUT MY BRAINS OR GET MY ROPE CAUSE I JUST CAN'T COPE I can't breathe, I can't hope, I can't breathe, I can't cope ITS THEM VS ME, ITS ALL JUST FUCKED, FUCK THIS WORLD, I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE? Help me
