I tried to escape it

I tried to let it go

But every morning it's right there

I face it alone

I drown myself in liquor

I even prayed to God

I did my time with Satan

I look back and it's odd

Haunting me through all my waking dreams

Giving me doubt, nothing's what it seems

Cant control rage, bursting at the seams

Turn of the page, gone

My life is gone, gone from what it was

Hopes that have died, died and turned to dust

Died in a season descending from lust

Died long ago when I let you go

Look how the years have gone by like its nothing

You mean nothing more than a backwards path

A past regression

A ghost reaching out to choke me in retaliation

For not letting you sleep out your time

Sleep the sleep of warehoused machines that forgot

Artificial aerosol as your brain protects its mind

Parallel wives

Living ghost blood (x3) gets past the lights

Its not your fault

Enter the vault

Every so often

We'll wake you with salts
