lyrics

Silence, corner booth
Inner violence, without so much as a clue
Inhibitions slowly coming unglued
Toes dangle over the edge
The day you lost your innocence
Fight the urge to impart revenge
The coldest days are ahead

Leaving empty handed what did you come here for?
I'd understand if your vision was something more
But I'd like to point out that you've
Barely scratched the surface how can you see the end?
They don't deserve this hurt it'll breed regret
Ignore the demons put the past to bed

Draw back, with your icy stare
The line is here and you're
Err on the side of common sense
Resist the urge to exact revenge
You're one day closer to death

Leaving empty handed what did you come here for?
I'd understand if your vision was something more
But I'd like to point out that you've
Barely scratched the surface how can you see the end?
They don't deserve this hurt it'll breed regret
Ignore the demons put the past to bed

Idle hands
Never rest
Skeletons
Always haunting
