2. Visceral Zero

V1RV$

Lyrics:

I lay here where shame and pride coincide

Side by side but I override thoughts of suicide

It's where self doubt goes to die

I watch blame peel off my skin

To find the reason hidden within

I took miasma from the lie

Turned it on itself and amplify

This new perspective makes me cold

But that's the place you make me go

I left the daylight blind

This is the hell I redefined

I use dead skin as a battle grin

And let the real destruction begin

Shaken breath held in reverse

I was clay before the curse

Baptized in your torrid furnace

Flames arise and forge the verse

No matter how much that shit hurts

Your kiss was worse

You say truth or lie it's all the same

When you're caught you twist the blame

Now it's my turn to reclaim

Your lie your truth they burn the same

Too long I wore silence as a grin

This is the end never again

I left the daylight blind

This is the hell I redefined

I use dead skin as a battle grin

And let the real destruction begin

Anchored breath held in reserve

I was clay before the curse

Baptized in your torrid furnace

Flames arise and forge the verse

No matter how much that shit hurts

Your kiss was worse

In the cinders of my old disguise

I find the truth behind the eyes

Molten hands reshape my core

Burn away I'm less but more

This visceral zero I've come to know

A blackened shell I wear like skin

It's time for you to let go

This ain't a game you're gonna win

There's nothing left for you to take

You're not my life you were a mistake

This is where I drown your memory

With all the promises you couldn't keep
