I keep trying to hide
Inside these walls where I bleed
These knives, the thorns adorn
The mantles where I lay
My roses, they bloom inside
Like unwanted weeds, they just stick
And I don’t want them anymore
I don’t understand
My will will not command my hands
Actions out of my control
Mens rea gone out the door
I can’t seem to feel my hands
This is how I am
Deep beyond, I’m free from static
But knives are easy, automatic
Let me out of me, I can’t
This is what I am
I keep digging deeper down
I think I cut a vein
(Aw, shit!)
I don’t understand
My will will not command my hands
Actions out of my control
Mens rea gone out the door
I can’t seem to feel my hands
This is what I am
Deep beyond, I’m free from static
But knivеs are easy, automatic
Let mе out of me, I can’t
This is how I am
The blood won’t stop, oh
I need you now, more than ever
I don’t understand
My will will not command my hands
Actions out of my control
Mens rea gone out the door
I can’t seem to feel my hands
This is how I am
Deep beyond, I’m free from static
But knives are easy, automatic
Let me out of me, I can’t
This is what I am
This is what I am!
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
This is what I am!
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
(This is what I am, I need this)
This is what I am!
