The third and final single from "True Happiness," out 4/6/18.

lyrics

Rip the skin off of your lips and soak forever in the shadows of the tanks of oxygen you burned to embers
You sit around and wonder why your friends won't make the call when you could just as easily end it all

Don't worry, if this is the end then you'll never have to try and start it over again
The peak of an avalanche that's too steep to climb with every line
And empty rhyme

If you speak up, you'll start a war
Send fledgling armies to your shore
At the end of the day, I wish I knew what makes you tick, but with every hope to understand, I'd never hear the end of it

You swore you'd never let yourself get in this mess, but now you're jaded and empty just like the rest
You walked into the house of mirrors and tried to get clean but the next day you went waltzing to the bottom of the sea

*You saw the light, and then it faded through the frame
You saw a picture of yourself, and to this day you wonder why it gets so hard to carry on when every day is spent writing what you did wrong*

Cut your tongue out and sew your mouth shut
Gouge out your eyes and tangle your guts
But you'll never run away from your hatred inside
'Cause when the Rapture comes, you'll never survive

*Old film photographs are fading from view, dissecting every detail of the portrait of you.*
