New City 02:20
Inside your bones there is a city The people starve and look so good Inside your skin there is a temple The people sin and look so good Count the numbers on your back See how high you really are Count the numbers on your back See how mighty you really are See how big you really are See how strong you really are I told myself that my life would be beautiful I told myself that my life would be more than this This was a perfect example of extraneous symmetry

I wanna change my name I wanna move somewhere warm Give me another way I wanna change my name I wanna cut my hair Give me another way I want the easy way I wanna change my name I wanna move away Give me another way Please

Everything looks different once in a while A glitch in the system, rot in the chip Hopefully this is the last time you see it You've seen too much already you think You've seen too much already you think You've seen too much already you think You've seen too much already you think The clock seems to rot The leaves turn to nothing The dead rose in your hand It starts to smell like a carnival Clarity walks back in waves though it’s never the same perhaps it never will be You think to yourself: Count the cuts on your hand Only one of the two that you will ever get For the minute at least The echoes grow back from the last time you cut them no one can explain Those things that you said

I find myself in a hidden place way out No memories as to how I got there, way out No one knows me anymore I can finally fly away I sink down underneath The floorboards to my hidden place Rotten time is keeping me lame I think It’s got the best of me grey walls Purple Ceiling, all I see, It’s what I wanted it is The price of living This way I guess it’s for me It’s the price of living I guess it’s just for me

I told myself that my life would be beautiful Where are the mirrors The lights and the smoke? I told myself that I was worth more than this Where are the mirrors, the lights and the smoke? Illusions will get the best of me always, no matter how hard I try to see Through the veil of things I can't change Always Always ending me I will forever be inside the room with grey walls and white ceiling and the lies that the walls tell me I’m the one who put them there, I think that I like it here Wheres the fucking door? Maybe someday my life will be beautiful Free from pain I design I need to get out from under the claws that are over me Bloody hangnails You picture yourself champion of pain Please put down the crown, hands up.
