Breathe in slow, your chest is tight
Dragging heels through flashing lights
Your sum fell short from the start
Break your bones to rearrange your parts
Cradle me in your arms
Shield my fragile form from harm
Pick up the embers in your hands
You've closed those fingers, now witness your best laid plans
May the devil take my son at my demise
Make him not what I've become to stand here
May the devil take my son at my demise
Make him not what I've become
I am nothing but a drop in the ocean
Give me your words, your face, give me your lover
See me looking sad and lonely, give me a brother
Now my days are getting on my shadow's getting taller
You can try to dam the flood but you're breathing in the water
Break at the bends
Wish for the end
The faster I grow, the more you slow me down
May the devil take my son at my demise
Make him not what I've become to stand here
May the devil take my son at my demise
Make him not what I've become
I am nothing but a drop in the ocean

Adolescence

Danger creeps in behind closed doors
Danger believes it will even up the score
And take you back to the day you were born
My hands are clean
A figure steps in
He knows you're alone
Tell him what you told me
Your questionable heart
The nagging doubt you run from when the light closes in
Draw a line, leave your mark, we won't meet again
The fatal sound, a nightmare you're afraid to begin
This shrinking room we leave behind, we're sealing you in
My hands are clean
You will be the making of me
You're sick to the bone
I wash you away, the stains won't go
Hating, you're blaming
This mould, the folds on me
Praying that you'll break skin
The mould, the folds around me
Count the steps you led astray
Hold the ground where you lay
Dig yourself an early grave
My hands are clean
You will be the making of me

When you grow up
I won’t even know your name
When you grow old
I won’t be there
When you grow up
I won’t even know your name
When you grow old
I won’t be there
It’s all work eat sleep repeat
Work eat, sleep repeat
Dodging the corpses that line up the streets
Clouding your vision and tripping your feet
Well I won’t eat I won’t lay down to sleep
The stories I’m told I refuse to believe
I won’t eat, I won’t lay down to sleep
Until I can buy a house on this street
The emptiness at my address
Is keeping me from sleeping
The rainfall at my window
Is just angels weeping
At my sorry state of affairs
And I’ve seen for myself what ambition can do
When left in the hands of someone like you
Let go as the tide turns
flesh and bone has to change
Feel the weight pulling under
as if growing was strange
Just give me one more zero
Just give me one more
The emptiness at my address
Is keeping me from sleeping
The rainfall at my window
Is just angels weeping
At my sorry state of affairs
You're old at heart
In a heartless home
In a heartless home
Just give me one more zero
Just give me one more
The emptiness behind my chest
Is keeping us from meeting
The cage hung in your window
Reminds me I'm leaving
Reminds you not to care

I’m in need
Heal me
Give me the remedy
To make my heart release
Cold bones
A hand set in stone
I am alone
I am alone
Cold bones
A hand on my shoulder
You make me feel so
I am disease
Free me
These needles in my skin
Pin me to the sheets
Cold bones
A hand set in stone
I am alone
I am alone
Cold bones
A hand on my shoulder
I wish I was old
You make me feel so
You make me feel so young
Let it fade
I know this place, I can taste the sea
Don’t make me stay
The fear I had, the fear I hold no more
