Dead Centre Walk The Line Keep It Rigid Don't Decline Fractured Moments On All Sides To Keep Them Level That's How We Survive. Direct Concealed Design To Lay Down Your Thoughts Next To Mine Lead Weight Intent Collides Despite The Bleeding We're Both Still Alive. Fast Forgiveness, Leads To Resentment Justified, Terrified, Forceful Belligerent. Fast Forgiveness, Leads To Resentment Justified, Terrified, Forceful Belligerent. And In The End We, Still Won't Be Content Fight The Beginning, When You Just Felt Needed Justified Terrified, And Still Deceiving. Scream The Reason, You Keep Forgetting To Give The Space We Both Need For Breathing. Fast Forgiveness, Leads To Resentment Justified, Terrified, Forceful Belligerent. Fast Forgiveness, Leads To Resentment Justified, Terrified, Forceful Belligerent. And In The End We, Still Won't Be Content.

Equation 03:15
Tried Again, Tried To Gain Something Once Held Before. Push Away, Stay Away Won't Help You Fuck Me Up More. Then The Want And The Need For Acceptance Begins Validate What Is Me, Cause I Can't Take This Again. To Conquer Or Be Taken By You And The Endless Struggle Of Needing The Two. Separate To Regain Balance Once More Suddenly Feel Better, But No One Wins Here. Tried To Stand, Throw Away Everything We Knew Before. Simulate All This Rage And Hope You'll Be Back For More Then The Want And The Need For Acceptance Begins Validate What Is Me, Cause I Can't Take This Again. To Conquer Or Be Taken By You And The Endless Struggle Of Needing The Two. Separate To Regain Balance Once More Suddenly Feel Better, But No One Wins Here, No One Wins Here........

How, Do You Know, If The Words You've Got Inside, Will All Fall Out Just Right And, Vulnerable, Tells You Not To Fight, The Wars You've Got Inside And, Run, Another Reel, Of Scenarios Despite, The Fact They Run Your Life And, Hold, Out As Long, As You Can Before, They Reach Out For More And. Throw Down All these Images, Tell Me I'm Being Merciless. Thought This Sense Of Opposites Would Balance Out, But Nothing Has. Throw Down All these Images, Tell Me I'm Being Merciless, Thought This Sense Of Opposites Would Balance Out, But Nothing Has. Take, Another Look, Through This Bitter Lense, To Restart The Chaos And Then You, Push, Up Against, The Reasons You Look In, Not Much Comes Full Circle And Then You're, Caught, Up And Told, Nothing Will Feel Whole, If You Don't Get Control And, Set, Up Distort, The Pictures You Pretend, Will Make You, Feel Real Again And. Throw Down All these Images, Tell Me I'm Being Merciless. Thought This Sense Of Opposites Would Balance Out, But Nothing Has. Throw Down All these Images, Tell Me I'm Being Merciless, Thought This Sense Of Opposites Would Balance Out, But Nothing Has. Telling Me Just To Do The Opposite, Is Sending Us Back To What Started This. Taking A Pause To Make Sense Of It, That's What Hurts, So It's Worth It. Telling Me Just To Do The Opposite, Is Sending Us Back To What Started This. Taking A Pause To Make Sense Of It, That's What Hurts, So It's Worth It.

This Mind's A Constant Rigid Grind, And When No Word Is Left Behind, Momentum's Lost With Every Thought, Good Intentions Nearly Dropped You Drag This Load All Through The Night. Given Direction Where To Fall, Can't Stop The Constant Halt And Stall, Of A Crashing Discontent, Ramping Up With Every Breath Crushing As It Lifts Us All. And There's No One To Save You No One Is Coming, This Time Around. Yeah, There's No One To Save You You Took This Too Far, Gotta Learn to Live On Barren Ground. Contesting What You Think Will Fall, You've Got No Breath To Say It All, These Words Will Come Out In A Rush, Then Turn Tail And Hide Amongst The Desperate Need To Control. A Moment Pure And Delicate The One That Causes You Unrest Afraid To Break It So Insist, It Never Really Could Exist It's Easier Then Feeling Wrecked. And There's No One To Save You, No One Is Coming, This Time Around. Yeah, There's No One To Save You, You Took This Too Far, Gotta Learn To Live On Barren.

This Pull, From The Bottom, Will Pull, You Right To The Bottom. Stood Still, Gave It Momentum, Got Filled, With Useless Decisions. This Pull, Forward Straight Precision, Will Pull, Together All The Smaller Pieces. Stood Still, In Hopes They Pass You Over, Got Filled, To Keep Them At A Distance. Distant, Prediction Of An Echo, You Sent, To Warn Of This Disaster. Could've Dropped The Hint, Just A Little Sooner, To Prevent, This Life Long Contempt. This Pull, From The Bottom, Will Pull, You Right To the Bottom. Stood Still, In Hopes They Pass You Over, Got Filled, With Useless Decisions.
