I made it out of the maze
I cleared the smoke and the mirrors away
All that remains is the honest truth
but it's the same mistake
That I made last week
fell back in the trap
Every breath I breathe
barely makes it past my teeth
'cause these same vises occupy my mind
And I opened up the cage to find
that the beast locked inside
didn't want to be saved
Panic makes all of my decisions for me
No rational thought just a quick jerk of the knee
I am alive
Despite my pain and strife
My salvation lies in every note
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
I bleed for my anger
I hold onto my youth
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
But I've got a gold medal in failure
I climb up to the highest block
I felt the cold down my spine from their empty accolades
And my passion becomes comatose
But like these notes these problem won't
resolve themselves
Panic makes all of my decisions for me
No rational thought just a quick jerk of the knee
I am alive
Despite my pain and strife
My salvation lies in every note
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
I bleed for my anger
I hold onto my youth
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
And my body is sick from this thinking
And my body is sick from the drinking
Everybody knows what I'm thinking
Everybody but me
And my body is sick of this thinking
And my body is sick from the drinking
Everybody knows what I'm thinking
Everybody but me
and my mind is weak from this sickness
Head to toe engulfed in this weakness
At least I know that I still have feeling
I am alive
Despite my pain and strife
My salvation lies in every note
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
I bleed for my anger
I hold onto my youth
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
