{Verse 1}
Comforting skin next to me
She said that I can never be
Myself, when I die, I will be alone
Listening to her heart, I can't feel anything
Below my neck, and now my thoughts will take control
{Chorus}
And if you prefer
I'll leave out all the details of this emptiness I feel
And if you prefer
I'll be around to listen to your softly spoken words
{Verse 2}
Darkness seems to make isolation easier
I welcome my hallucinations
Understandings of what I am will come undone
As I spiral deeper into nothingness
{Chorus}
But if it helps me sleep
I'll take out my frustration on my temporary skin
If it helps me sleep
I'll smoke until I never have another dream of you
{Verse 3}
Being in this space where nothing stays the same
I feel this biting clawing pain inside my chest
Fly against the window pain soon to die
{Outro}
Why does he try
Why try
