You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it.
You shed a light, then let it dim.
You pull me down to the black abyss.

Been stuck in this dark zone
With how cold this heart's grown.
Pick up another piece to fall apart,
Falling deeper as I creep into the catacombs.
But you don't even know the half.
When you're thrown out in a world just to write your epitaph,
Never looking back cause they never gave a chance
When they promised you the world but delivered petulance.
It's not hard to be jaded
When their shades of jade made you take on their hatred,
A weight never lifted, a burden, erasing
All feelings of hope and left feeling forsaken.
But now I'm awakened.
Lost sight but I'll never be mistaken
To build my energy up just to let you take it
And know it's something that you'll never get away with.

You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it.
You shed a light, then let it dim.
You pull me down to the black abyss.

See you crafting a mask.
What's the tragedy? I'm here for a laugh.
Tear me down, build these walls up,
Let you show me how you really wanna act.
Left the dirt in the past but you're digging up graves, shovel, let's get to it.
You wrote the book on how to feel useless
Drag us all down when it comes down to it.
And I won't bite my tongue just to let you feel strong.
The hate you bred has lived in your blood all along.
And you can wait all you want to hear my swan song.
Let it all fall, out the dark I crawl.
What's an egotist to their own downfall? stupid.

You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it.
You shed a light, then let it dim.
You pull me down to the black abyss.

Blot out the sun, freeze me solid.
Shackle my mind with your toxin, it’s catabolic.
Shred every atom in my body ‘til I’m catatonic.
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
You’re so fucking toxic.
You’re so fucking toxic.
Bite your tongue until you taste the blood
Feign the love, don't make a problem for us.

You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it.
You shed a light, then let it dim.
You pull me down to the black abyss.
You build me up to spread me thin.
You fan the flame just to smother it.
You shed a light, then let it dim.
But there’s no doubt, I’ll get out of this.
I’m crawling out of the black abyss.
I’m crawling out of the black abyss.
