Patient Sixty-Seven
The Void
[Verse 1]
It hurts to feel normal
To be bitter
I’ll never change
It’s never been clearer

The snake won't be forgiven
Not myself as I look in the mirror

Put the pain on a pedestal
I swear I mend just to ache
I’ll never mend or take control
Why do I bend just to break

[Chorus]
I’m falling through
I’m failing you
It kills me to concede
Redemption in truth

I have to believe (I have to believe)
The countless times I’ve put on the line
The thoughts that cloud my mind
This is not how I'll be defined

[Verse 2]
The void it never seems to cease
The heartache never seems to ease
I never believed in this disease
Before it found a home in me

[Chorus]
I’m falling through
I’m failing you
It kills me to concede
Redemption in truth

I have to believe (I have to believe)
The countless times I’ve put on the line
The thoughts that cloud my mind
This is not how I'll be defined

[Bridge]
The world at my feet
Why would you take it away from me
The world at my feet
I know you’re fucking listening

I’m not going to let you fucking take me
Try as you might you won’t fucking break me
I'm not your prey, I’m a fucking earthquake
I’m not caged and you’re mine for the taking

Maybe I’m not the same
But it’s my turn to change
There’s too much at stake
[Phil Druyor]
I'm just a man
With a problem and a plan
And I've got nothing
I've let go of myself

I understand that I need a fucking hand
But I'd rather burn my nose than get help

Now I'm petrified of my own mind
'Cause I'm fucked up all of the time
I think I'm seriously ill
What would you know (you know)
