lyrics

VERSE ONE:

And I've been planning my escape,
Too many dark nights turned to days where the sun never came,
Wide awake in the middle of a nightmare,
Praying on a way to stay numb from the pain,
Devil in my head with the heart of an angel,
Didn't realize they're one in the same,
But It's too little too late this time,
And there's just too much bad blood in the veins,
So I learned to bleed less,
When all they had to offer were their words and cheap threats,
They walk into the fire where they burn with regret,
I'll be next when it's my turn to cheat death,
A deep breath,
The last that you'll ever take,
So feel the weight on your chest as you suffocate,
We're separated from each other with a window to the world that we never understood but we love to hate,
And I hate you too,
I hate myself cause I'm just like you,
Erase who you are to be just like them and replace yourself like you always do,
Death to defy,
Left to divide,
You took yours when I left you with mine,
Should have listened when I told you to step to the side,
But you kept it alive when I left it to die,
You wont plea and you can't pray,
You can't leave and you can't stay,
You still believe it's the last way out and you wont be free when the glass breaks,
So glue it together with foolish endeavors,
Enraged from the distaste,
That you feel when you're beautifully weathered and useless as ever estranged here in this place,
No love below as it pulls you beneath in the undertow,
Destruction starved where the hunger grows,
Undisclosed where your reluctance shows,
Another door you'll never open again now once it's closed,
So we'll slip away into those endless dreams where no one goes.

CHORUS:

Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
Into and endless dream,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
And you can rescue me,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
Into and endless dream,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
And you can rescue me,

VERSE TWO:

I'ma keep my eyes closed,
With visions of ripping the stitches from my own,
Tight sewn,
Little incisions inflicted from symptoms of sickness in my home,
I don't,
Wish I was given a shit with a shit to be given so I won't,
Try hope,
This isn't what you intended I guess I'm pretending to die slow,
I know,
I know,
I know,
It's a face in a crowd full of undesirables,
Pacing around in a shroud with eye holes,
Faded with an ounce on a cloud of trichomes,
I made it to the ground with a round of vicodin,
I might go in a psycho binge,
If I don't finish my own fight with this tonight,
I won't live to see the downward spiral,
And I'm so subtle with my love,
Another wasted safety blanket cause I cuddle with my drugs,
And my greatest inspiration when I'm huddled in the mud,
Is I can paint you pretty pictures with the puddles of my blood,
And I believe I need a more normal habit,
Than picking up and leaving all my torn moral fabric,
I did it just to lead you through my four cornered labyrinth,
And listen to you breathing where my chloroforming rag sits,
So inhale and drift off to sleep,
In clouds of chem trails and get lost for keeps,
In crowds where friends fail and shit talk is cheap,
I'll be drowning my dead cells in sick thoughts for weeks...

CHORUS:

Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
Into and endless dream,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
And you can rescue me,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
Into and endless dream,
Slip away,
Slip away sweet lover,
And you can rescue me,
