Strangle Me

Identity, identity
Some things I can't get to follow me
'cuz I beat that shadow senseless
Flush me out, let it drain
Follow every drop of freezing rain
To the gardens we planted
Growing into something new 'cuz I can't stand the sight of you
Crying over a dieing rose
Count every pedal, count your mistakes
Count on someone else to remember the number
Is this the product you brought us?
It reminds me of the darker days
When you were fucking with the constants
Growing into something new 'cuz I can't stand the sight of you
Crying over a dieing rose
We let them slip away like frantic doves

[Chorus:]
Nevermind all the things that hold us down,
It's the shackles that hold me to the ground
And I owe it to the world and every breath that tries
To strangle me, to strangle me

You'll find the problem, and you'll stop the bleeding
But you'll lose your mind
When you're a slave to your creations
But that's the way it goes, that's the way it goes
And that voice is never leaving
Someone's got to remind you to fuck up everything you do
And I'd be better off alone
We let them slip away like frantic doves

[Chorus]

[continued]

I won't let it go, 'cuz when I do I lose control
And I'm separated
That's where I want to be, a few steps away so I can feel the heat
As everything I've done begins to burn [3x]
