The Past Tense

Treacherous memories just wanted to forget
 Madness my emergency exit
 I can close the door on all the dreadful things that happened
 Until I let myself slip (Until I let myself slip)
 And give into your sins
 Bleed the thoughts in the back your head
 Spinning over and over and over again
 Getting over and under and under the skin
 Spin, spin, spin
 Dragged through the five stages
 Now i'm sure I know what grief is
 I finally reached the point of stasis
 Roaming through these empty spaces
 Picking apart my brain as darkness permeates
 Forever stuck in retrograde
 In and out of attachment
 To avoid the hurt, to escape this madness
 Madness my emergency exit
 You can close the door on all that's happened
 I let my sanity slip away
 It was the best decision I have ever made
 If you don't want the guilt and you don't want to feel the pain
 Follow me it's easy you just do the same
 I let my sanity slip away
 It was the best decision I have ever made
 Gloom lays over me
 Gloom lays over me
 Slightly sadistic i'm off the edge,
 The abyss, the place where you don't care anymore
 Where all hope dies and your past screams
 Reducing yourself down to lunacy
 Gloom lays over me
 Twisted trains of thought, i've internalized this pain for so long
