Текст Atreyu — My Sanity On The Funeral Pyre

[Verse 1]
Paranoia is the insect worming its way
Through my subconscious thoughts
It’s the larva of my self doubt
Gestating in my heart as I spiral down
And everything I touch is breaking
And it falls to earth in splinters
And I shiver as every splinter
Finds its way underneath my skin
And after 22 years I can still make my skin crawl
Every shortcoming, a pitfall

[Pre-Chorus]
On my way to making amends
Within myself to be
To be what I became

[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like the whole wide world
Has made itself my enemy
But I will stand upon my own two feet
And raise my head up

[Verse 2]
I lick my wounds
Trying to cleanse the infection
Rabid and diseased reality fades away
When I pushed myself too far
A dream of emotional perfection
Has left a wounded heart
Trying to perceive the gifts inherent inside me
It’s like squeezing the trigger
It’s like opening fire

[Pre-Chorus]
On everyone who’s let me down
On every beautiful lie that is
That is only fiction

[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like the whole wide world
Has made itself my enemy
But I will stand upon my own two feet
And raise my head up

[Outro]
For the first time
I’m losing control and I like it
Freedom feels like the noose is gone
For the first time
I’m losing control and I like it
Freedom feels like the noose is gone
