LYRICS

Shivers running down my spine
I'm contemplating "suicide"

I'm walking down this path
Until next time I get unalived

My alter ego's gone
'Cause I just wasn't satisfied

Yeah, it is prophesied

So I'm changing faces
Like a star sign Gemini
A hundred names
In my passport creation files
I just can't bear
Who I was when I came to live
So why? So why am I

I just don’t know
What the hell I'm doing here
This life got battered
By so many unconcluded fears
Rip the skin off my face
Get me re-engineered
Another life, another life
So I can keep going

Clogged mind
And I can't drain it
Broken heart
But I can't tame it
Shattered soul
It's the same pain
In the same brain
And I can't change it

Complicated souls
Fighting for their spot to shine
Any second now
One of them will come to life
Burned the bridges
To the ones I had inside my mind
Like a poltergeist

Sun's rising
And I'm trying
To stay here till next morning
They are spying
On my own

Alter ego, hundreds of them died
Take the next one for a little ride

So what do you wanna hear?
So what do you wanna hear?
That your life gets better
If we all disappeared?

What you wished for is a curse
You worked so hard to summon
Threw away these entities
Now you're the one they're hunting
Based the image in the mirror
On their way of judgment
Try to break the loop
Before the break where you malfunction

So where do I go?
I get pulled into the void
Yeah, where do I go?
Where do I go?

I just don’t know
What the hell I'm doing here
This life got battered
By so many unconcluded fears
Rip the skin off my face
Get me re-engineered
Another life, another life
So I can keep going

Shivers running down my spine
I'm contemplating "suicide"
