Ensnared

Where is the light when I burn in the fire?

I stand ensnared, my hands are bound in wire

I fall apart, rapture forming in my head

Don't shed a tear, you'll understand when I'm dead

You'll understand when I'm dead

This cruel world has opened up to me

Like the fire-headed woman standing bare in my dreams

She seems to caress and run her hands up and down me

But now I give way to collapse and feel the ground splinter beneath my feet

I grip the dirt tryna pull it to me

But with my fingers sinking deeper, I have no air to breathe

The open road and my brothers all surrounding me

I have the only truth I wanted from this world made of deceit

I live life numb

So I can spare you the hurt when I die young

I live life selfish and numb

So I can spare you the pain when I die young

Oh, smile

Aren't you so glad to be alive?

Feel the spike in your mouth

I can see the needle in your eye

Feel the loving warmth

Until you're dripping in sweat

Strap a smile on, then shoot yourself in the head

Keep the knife out of reach, hold me down till I see red

Strap my Kevlar on then shoot me in the head

Living life like a dying breed, my misery perceived as apostasy

Ungrateful fuck, give yourself to the light

But I never found it in this endless night

Ensnared by the night, ooh

You said this would never change

You said we'd always stay the same

If I don't die young

Bury me alive

Whoo

Bury me

Bury me

Bury me

Whoo

Bury me

Bury me

Bury me

Eee

Bury me

Argh
