  • Go!

    The Truth of my heart
    Is like a repressed tale

    A censored and silenced story
    Repression or restraint
    It is a delicate balance
    Between bleeding out what
    Will make me drown
    And closing in what I cannot afford to spill
    Either way, I must cauterize, cauterize the open wound

    I'm caught between the feeling
    Of being pulled apart
    Or stuffed into a cell
    Or stuffed into a cell

    And if these are the only options
    This will be always be hell
    Never ending
    Though I still may be breathing
    There is no quality of life
    So I choose to risk it all for you
    For you to be by my side

    I'm caught between the feeling
    Of being pulled apart
    Or stuffed into a cell
    Or stuffed into a cell

    A crowd is easy to deceive
    But now I am a patient on the table
    I'll give you the knife
    Cut away as you see fit
    Just promise me the patience
    To wait for me to heal

    I'm caught between the feeling
    Of being pulled apart
    Or stuffed into a cell
    Or stuffed into a cell
    Or stuffed into a cell Writer/s: Jordan Mancino, Josh Gilbert, Phillip Sgrosso, Samuel Hipa, Timothy Lambesis
