Abyss Behind My Eyes

Simple glances
Cut like glass
Every hallway
Feels like mass

Every whisper
Carved in stone
Every silence
Tells me go

Their eyes slide off me
Like I'm rot on the floor
Is it all in my head
Or was I done for at the door

There's an abyss behind my eyes
It chews through every sunrise
I'm a hollow, walking fault line
One more step and I break
If this is living, let it die
Let it burn, let it all unwind
I'd rather vanish from this life
Than stay trapped in this empty mind (hey)

I drag my body
Through the days
Wear this anger
Like decay

They talk about me
Through their teeth
I hear the verdict
When they breathe

Their faces blur together
Into one long sneer
If I cut out my heart
Would it finally disappear

There's an abyss behind my eyes
It chews through every sunrise
I'm a hollow, walking fault line
One more step and I break
If this is living, let it die
Let it burn, let it all unwind
I'd rather vanish from this life
Than stay trapped in this empty mind

I'm tired of begging
Rooms that never hear
Tired of choking
On everybody's fear

If I walk away
Leave it all in flames
Would anybody
Even say my name (woah)

There's an abyss behind my eyes
It chews through every sunrise
I'm a hollow, walking fault line
One more step and I break
If this is living, let it die
Let it burn, let it all unwind
I'd rather vanish from this life
Than stay trapped in this empty mind
