Pa**ion and conflict, the sin of human souls The light behind the eyes of a mother's sole existance Random bereavement, the tears out of control The one who sees the smile disappear and wonders where it went Now that we're lonely do we race to see it end? How do we find the candle flicker? How do we trace the vanished grin? You can only do so much Before it gets thinner... Now that we have nowhere to go... All these heartaches and black cancers are painless in their attack As long as you're within my crystal walls, there's no way in But they're constantly inviting, is temptation still a sin? In the long run you'll be the happiest, until then lie to your friends (Lie) Now that you are all by yourself And the world is your enemy What the f** is self-esteem? Now the numbers can't even keep me awake I split my head wide open, bled all over the place This other lunatic has never made the same mistake So he gets to be the hero again Now that you are all by yourself Now that you will die And all because of someone else You can only do so much Before it gets thinner... And thinner
