Lyrics
Salting the Earth
It sounds just like a eulogy
What the fuck did they do to me?
The voices that never leave
Dragging me down until I'm too deep
I think I hate myself more now than you ever could
One blink of an eye and I'm gone for good
I'm left with the dust in this vacant room
If it's the salt in my veins
What helps to slow the decay?
I just hope it doesn't burn this way forever
If it's the salt in my veins
What makes it so hard to leave?
I just hope that I don't burn this way forever
A sickness without a name
Who thе fuck is left for me to blame?
Thеre's no one here, I just pushed them all away
That's where you'll find me
Digging into these wounds again
Emptier than I've ever been
Stitching together what I've got left!
Is it living through pain if I'm always chasing death?!
If it's the salt in my veins
What helps to slow the decay?
I just hope it doesn't burn this way forever
If it's the salt in my veins
What makes it so hard to leave?
I just hope that I don't burn this way forever
Is it a plague to end up like this?!
To let it linger inside my head?!
Was I ruined from the start?!
Ripping my limbs apart!
Bleeding out all on my own!
Bleeding out, I choke on the blood in my throat...!
If it's the salt in my veins
What helps to slow the decay?
I just hope it doesn't burn this way forever
If it's the salt in my veins
What helps to slow the decay?
I just hope it doesn't burn this way forever
If it's the salt in my veins
What makes it so hard to leave?
I just hope that I don't burn this way forever
Burn this way forever
