We’re upside down,
Ready to drown, my body finds home underground.
Our pigment fades,
As blood seeps to our brains
Paling underwater with age.
That “truth” we see here is nothing near
the truth I have wanted
It’s what I fear, being your “dear”.
The hand of man pats my head like he’s
a God who owns it all, faulty for my fall.
We’re paling, together
Here’s the thing, It’s forever.
Please don’t think to save me,
I’m paling to be free
We’re paling, together
The ocean’s my shelter.
Hit the waves, thief of age
I’m paling to be free
We’re upside down,
Fist grabbing grounds of green.
I think I am starting to drown,
Decayed away,
Skin wrinkled like it’s frayed
This sacrifice is far too delayed.
That “truth” we see here is nothing near
the truth I have wanted
It’s what I fear, being your “dear”.
I’m perishing from inside out but it’s alright because I’m free of you
(finally)
We’re paling, together
Here’s the thing, It’s forever.
Please don’t think to save me,
I’m paling to be free.
We’re paling, together
The ocean’s my shelter.
Hit the waves, thief of age
I’m paling to be free.
I’m paling, remember?
It is not a surrender.
Please know this is power.
I am paling to be free.
I’m paling, remember?
The time was now or never
Sacrifice uncovers
A man’s godly complex
We’re paling, together
Here’s the thing, It’s forever.
Please don’t think to save me,
I’m paling to be free.
We’re paling, together
The ocean’s my shelter.
Hit the waves, thief of age
I’m paling to be free.

No, I don’t think that this is right
I didn’t wanna do it
But I’m afraid there is no choice
We’ve all gotta go through it
The news says that we’re all mad
Well, there’s not much to it
Better not tell mom and dad
Their hearts will be ruined
Afraid to walk alone at night?
I really can’t blame you, babe
The monsters have come out to bite
Who knew they smiled so bright?
Can’t run from you, can’t run from you
So I’ll just become you, better than you, worse than you
That’s when my name will be
In the magazine
Look behind you, look behind you
Why would I be scared of you, I’m worse than you?
It’s a dog eat dog game
In the deadliest decade
No, I don’t think that this is right
I didn’t wanna do it
But battle royale really sucks
At least lawyers make good bucks?
The news says that we’re all mad
They’re scared for all their lives
Better not tell mom and dad
Can’t let them take back my knife!
Afraid to walk alone at night?
I really can’t blame you, babe
The monsters have come out to bite
Who knew they smiled so bright?
Can’t run from you, can’t run from you
So I’ll just become you, better than you, worse than you
That’s when my name will be
In the magazine
Look behind you, look behind you
Why would I be scared of you, I’m worse than you?
It’s a dog eat dog game
In the deadliest decade
I’ve become you, I’ve become you
That monster you drove me to, but better than you
Punks like you will always deserve
My sweet revenge
Look behind you, look behind you
Why would I be scared of you, I’m worse than you?
It’s a dog eat dog game
In the deadliest decade
