Ex Negativo

Here I am at the end of my rotten fate
I am a victim to the habits that I cultivate

No smoke without a fire
No blood without a wound
No forgiveness for the sinner
Who has seen the face of gloom

I'll never learn from my mistakes
Misery favors the lonely
Victim to the habits that I cultivate
Misery favors the lonely

All means have reached an end
Another loss in the books
And it feels like I am running out of options
This fucking world's only a fictional invention
Loaded up with toxins
The only reason for me to breathe
The only reason I make believe

No smoke, no fire
No blood without a wound
No forgiveness for the sinner
Who has seen the face of gloom

I don't believe in redemption
I don't think I will ever heal
I don't believe in salvation
Never again will I be able to feel

Doubting my every decision
Fueling my inner division
I am killing off all of my feelings
Kill my feelings

Take, take, when the stakes are high
Break, break, running out of time again
Take, take, when the stakes are high
Break, break, just another life down the drain

The irony, my liabilities ricochet back
I have to face it, I never wanted to repent

I don't believe in redemption
I don't think I will ever heal
I don't believe in salvation
Never again will I be able to feel

Doubting my every decision
Fueling my inner division
I am killing off all of my feelings
Kill my feelings

Take, take, when the stakes are high
Break, break, running out of time again
Take, take, when the stakes are high
Break, break, just another life down the drain
