Plan the escape in the creases of our minds Exit through the valley of wonder Dust of the scent you've left on the trail Look through my skin for a target to impale Desecrate the body we use to conceal what haunts us in our dreams Fortify the walls that crumble under the cover of darkness Nothing haunts us like that which lives in the corners of our minds A sinister reminder that we never truly make it out alive Shed my skin of this swallowed poison Let my teeth splint open a smile I want to die and be arisen I want to be forced to protect my own survival We walk around in our own heads, our own heads Trying to repay ourselves of our own debts Standing above our bodies contemplating our own d**hs Hedging our bets on the hope that anything is left It weighs heavy on my mind, something I can't define Sights burn holes through me, as I navigate the trees Silently stalking the prey, as I race to get away The chase will never cease, until I let my fear feast
Scalp my wounded body and take any pride I have left Skin my tortured soul and expose what I've kept inside Plan the escape in the creases of our minds Exit through the valley of wonder Dust of the scent that you've left on the trail Look through my skin for a target to impale Desecrate the body we use to conceal what haunts us in our dreams Fortify the walls that crumble underneath the cover of darkness Nothing haunts us like that which lives in the corners of our minds A sinister reminder that we never truly make it out alive I think I'm running free, but all the trees are looking at me I think I'm running free, but all the trees are looking for me I hear those footsteps coming I hear those footsteps coming because we're all running from something I hear those footsteps coming because we're all running from something Phantoms vanish but brandish a lurking presence Tangible and capable of serving our own d**h sentence
