LYRIC FOR SALE

By Chris

When you feel like choking while screaming
Yet don't make a whispery sound,
And the world seems to only keep beating
The shit out of fresh bleeding wound -
You get used to indifference deeply
Till it feels like the warmest embrace,
There's no way to get out too discreetly -
That darkness will always leave trace.

You always prioritize the pain -
So soothingly familiar.
You'll wrap yourself with chain
To gain the sweet oblivion.
You'll break it all to hell
To clear the space from misery,
But all you'll see inside
Are cracks your soul is suffering.

Shining light is so far to reach out to,
But you try despite every knock down.
Bit by bit you will let it inside you,
Fill the cracks without turning around.
But this fight that is hidden from others
Is the hardest to win and survive,
And by habit you'll be there with darkness,
But then - run, to be finally alive.

You always prioritize the pain -
So soothingly familiar.
You'll wrap yourself with chain
To gain the sweet oblivion.
You'll break it all to hell
To clear the space from misery,
But all you'll see inside
Are cracks your soul is suffering.

With no drama and no game
And with nobody to blame
Break the chains,
Let go the pain.
Get it out of the system.
Get it out of your system.

Let go of the self-destructive pain -
Make peace inside familiar.
Don't wrap yourself with chain
To gain the sweet oblivion.
Just break it all to hell,
Get rid of all the misery,
And then you'll see inside
The cracks are just your history.
