==Lyrics==
    I'm going back
    Of course I am
    As if I ever had a choice
    Back to what I always knew I was
    On the inside
    Back to what I really am
    Look at this pathetic place I made
    With little bits of sticks and hair
    And anything I found along the way
    And tell yourself, you know?
    You're not really what you know you are
    You know?
    Of course you do
    I think I may have even listened to you
    I think I may have even listened to you
    At the height of my demise
    
    Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe…
    Break through the surface and breathe
    
    I am forgiven
    I am free
    I am a field on fire
    
    And oh my God, I have missed you
    It has been so long
    And I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline
    I am stronger than I have ever been in my decline
    For now I know, now I know, now I know for certain
    Now I know for certain
    Oh, burn motherfucker
    Carry the carcass and throw it on
    Pull up a chair and watch
    The flies come roaring out
    And will surround the entire world
    And blacken out the sky and every last one of you
    Like a plague of locusts
    Like an exit
    Like an end
    Like an end
    Like an end
    Like the end
    
    Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe…
    Break through the surface and breathe
    
    I am forgiven
    I am free
    I am a field on fire
    
    I can't tell if I am dreaming anymore

The lyrics as embedded in the files of some versions of the EP:

    i’m going back
    of course i am
    as if i ever had a choice
    back to what i always knew i was 
    on the inside
    back to what i really am
    look at this pathetic place i made
    with little bits of sticks and hair and anything i found along the way
    and tell yourself you know
    you’re not really what you know you are
    you know?
    of course you do
    i think i may have even listened to you i think i may have even listened to you
    at the height of my demise
    
    
    break through the surface and breathe
    
    
    i am forgiven
    i am free
    i am a field on fire
    i am forgiven
    i am free
    i am a field on fire
    
    
    and oh my god i have missed you
    it has been so long
    i am stronger than i have ever been in my decline
    for now i know i know for certain
    shedding any 
    burn motherfucker 
    carry the carcass and throw it on 
    pull up a chair and watch
    the flies come roaring out
    and will surround the entire world
    and blacken out the skies and every last one of you
    like a plague of locusts
    like an exit 
    like an end
    like the end
    
    
    i am forgiven
    i am free
    i am a field on fire
    i am forgiven
    i am free
    i am a field on fire
    
    
    it's getting hard to know which side is the dream
    i can't tell if i am dreaming anymore
