Lyrics

Insolvent The lights are down so wrap up the play You had your chance to be something But you wasted it leeching off me Hold me back by a chain Lock me away in a hell Where I'm forced to find solace in violence I've run out of mileage (We sell our cliches and the broken kids buy this shit) So bring out your violins and play me a eulogy dressed up in silence (My fucking passions in ashes) all hope is dead The voice that's pulling me downward (all hope is dead) Whispered it's name in my ear (all hope is dead) Severance Another broken cycle Crippling me Under the weight of the things That I wanted to be (I won't) sell my silence to stave off an indictment (Think you could hide from me?) I fucking got you, you rancid fuck When powers authority is vested And the angels sing of blood that they've shed Our pain is packaged Sold like a commodity Strip me to the fucking bone Despondent, the starving child savors the taste When we consume the host, a paradise we annihilate (Pulling levers Savoring consequence) Tension rising Knives dulling Severance Forsaken by God The hell that stays here All hope is fucking dead
