Day of the Locust

I’ll take the pain It’s the only way to feel alive No getting out of here Show me the truth Tonight Finding peace when the curtain falls There’s comfort in the thought of losing it all Like a cancer that spreads It comes back every time I will end this tonight Shed my Skin When my demons take over At the day of the locust In the eye of the storm I’d die to be reborn Shed my Skin Caught in the swarm It’s drawing me in Like carrion Pick me apart Go on feed on my past Jaded With a look of disdain I’m facing the mirror ‘til all reason has Faded I’m embracing the bloodshed Too long I hid all my scars The feeling gets stronger now In a tunnel of the darkest matter Strangers passing by I don’t know how but Next time I’ll do it better I swear, I swear Take me out of here To shed my skin When my demons take over At the day of the locust In the eye of the storm I’d die to be reborn Shed my skin
Why can’t I show myself Why can’t I show myself In the eye of the storm I’d die to be reborn Shed my skin I’ll slip through the cracks Don’t want another chance I just can’t express I need to confess I can’t look at myself Why can’t I love? Why can’t I show myself? Why can’t I love? I can’t look at myself
