Silent Killer

Watch the unfolding
This growing grey inside
Creeping slowly,
Silent killer
Of all the real things that I hide

Such a perfect betrayal,
The one within
I'm shattered, scattered,
And words don't matter
Without a fight I've given in

Crush this denial, it's all coming clear
Crush this self-loathing that cages me here
Crush all the holes that can never be filled
Fuck self-destruction and fuck useless guilt

Through the empty,
Breathing steady,
Shed my skin,
I'm stripped away
Flood my senses,
Found my pieces,
Give it all to stay this way
Feel the silent killer wash away

Didn't know the possible
To rebegin
I spent so long waiting for an answer
That was already there
Didn't know the actual
Who I really am
I looked so far, thought life was out there
But I forgot how to live

Through the empty,
Breathing steady,
Shed my skin,
I'm stripped away
Flood my sense,
Found my pieces,
Give it all to stay this way
Feel the silent killer wash away

Ripped out
Stripped out
Burned out
Crushed out
Feel the silent killer wash away
