Rustage
Let the Ink Bleed
(Verse 1)
What did you want to show me?
Ink on the ground below me
Start the machine, like a routine
Simple as that, if only

Created a monster
Insane, I’m in need of an answer
Your brain’s an unwieldy commander;
Orchestrated a painted disaster

Stuck in a cycle, escaping is vital
I guess my arrival is long due
It’s a revival, another recital
A spiral of all those who’ve wronged you

Reliving the past won’t help you
No matter how much you attempt to
Bendy’s a memory, lost to this century
That’s what I’m trying to tell you

(Chorus)
Dripping down these paper walls
Are the stains of a broken heart
They say, “empires never fall,”
But instead they are taken apart
Keep on dreaming
Keep on working where you wanna be
Keep on breathing
Don’t give up on what you’ve made for me
Keep on feeling
All the magic that we once believed
Stop the screams
I won’t cease until I’ve let the ink bleed

(Verse 2)
Trapped in this hellscape
I’m guessing it’s my fate
It’s driving me crazy, I’m venturing deeper
And seeking to escape

Enter the world of dreams
Knowing it’s not what it seems
Joey, you built up an empire, amazing
Now why can’t you rest and just leave it be?

Deceiving me
Deception is the key to see your mysteries
Alice is an angel
But by God is she a beast to me

You’ve misconstrued your history
I find it contradictory
You have these different theories
But the truth’s in its simplicity
(Chorus)
Dripping down these paper walls
Are the stains of a broken heart
They say, “empires never fall,”
But instead they are taken apart

Keep on dreaming
Keep on working where you wanna be
Keep on breathing
Don’t give up on what you’ve made for me
Keep on feeling
All the magic that we once believed
Stop the screams
I won’t cease until I’ve let the ink bleed

Let the ink bleed
