lyrics

I choose my words, my battles carefully
No God-shaped shadow's hanging over me

I’m my own worst enemy

I’ve got a matroshka memory
I can’t see past the foreground of my dreams

I’m my own worst enemy

All these walls
Will cave in
Eventually
They will win
They’re trying to amputate
All our limbs
They’re trying to tell
Us what to think

I’m the king of amateur psychiatry
My internal dialogue’s a symphony

This will be the death of me (x2)

But these walls
Will cave in
Eventually
They will win
And all of my broken bones
Will pierce my skin
It’s cutting off
My oxygen

It consumes everything
Eventually, they will win

All is lost
To asymmetry
I’ve tried to escape
But it follows me
All is lost
To asymmetry
I won’t let them take
You away from me
