Guest vocals by Chazz McConnell

lyrics

Waiting at the scene of your murder.
Watching there sharpening your knife
Routine enslaved, my youth betrayed, stainless blade...
Cut the vein release the guilt?,
Or wear the suit.
Get out of bed and button up?
Get the gun box fire the shell.
Witnessing your temples bleed and spirit leave,
SHIT! I am late for work.

Cost of life
Cause of death drained until you flatline
With traffic this way I will make it OK or fucking flip my car
Cause a scene torch the dream
Incinerate this lake of gasoline
Deep Breathes...Inhale... I may make the news
Or sink into my cube

Separated from myself I see inside a mirror reflecting no one else
The dreams we seek most we will not find
Lets end this search and just take pictures of ourselves

Horrified! I didnt set the flash
This moment validates my existence.
Will you be my witness

Does this life hold any value, without the leering of the crowd?
I just need a fucking witness.
So I can feel proud

Self Inflicted, Self Induced
Eternal Coma sleep perfect
Just dont forget your break at noon
Because this your time to live
DONT BE LATE

Spill the blood
Give into the madness
To end this fucking war
Maybe this will bring excitement
And everyone will leave wanting more
Maybe just one more car payment, Something to keep me going strong
I dont need a fucking witness in my moment of weakness

Take this snap, Live and document
Just inflated skin, waltzing to the melodies of our own song
But i can never seem to stay in tune for a whole song
And as each day ends it brings another round in the chamber
Point blank Range...
Smell the smoke, Flash bulb burns, Spilled milk and blood
Shit I am late for work

Capture the blood red stained floor and write your feelings after
If your deaths not a success you may make friends
And with this new frame in mind its only a matter of time before you vacate the scene of the crime
The only living witness, to a lifes long living sickness

Save me from this ignorance.
Spare me all the decadence
Or maybe I will take that new job, and tear a scar.
