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
Additional lyrics printed on the physical component include:
Now I know for certain Shedding any Burn motherfucker
Like an end Like an end Like the fucking end Like the end
It's getting hard to know which side is the dream
