Autophobia 05:14
your way with words will be the the end of you opposing gravity, you’re falling down again self destruction caused by your own tongue projecting ironies from your iron lungs off balanced smiles stretching far and wide falling short of glory crashing like the tides extravagant farewells to my former self and a heavy set goodbye this is the last time i’ll raise these faults aloud i just want you to be proud tallest of tails part between your lips shooting canon balls into the strongest of ships mirror mirror i am so afraid dopplegangers threatening to fade bridges now burn paths no longer crossed making up for all time that was lost extravagant farewells to my former self and a heavy set goodbye this is the last time i’ll raise these faults aloud i just want you to be proud

come with me, and you will see the rise of glory take my hand as we withstand these washing waters bring me out by ay of the North Gate (by way of the North Gate) bring me to an uncrossable river (an uncrossable river) measure a thousand bring me to my knees measure a thousand more Son of Man, have you seen the beauty I've created? perfect in every way where the waters only rise, and the leaves never fade pinch me if i'm dreaming, but i'm already awake perfection uninterrupted leaves me in a daze these leaves will never wither, these fruits will always bare there's healing in the water - such beauty i must share forever is an understatement; there is no end these borders are equivalent, we've inherited the wind Little Bear, Father's coming, so throw away your fear the most delicate of memories, a utopia so sheer! feel the sand dance in between your toes flowers in your hair, raindrops on your nose how does it feel to be the owner of this all? (to be the owner of this all?) bring me out by ay of the North Gate (by way of the North Gate) bring me to an uncrossable river (an uncrossable river) measure a thousand bring me to my knees measure a thousand more son of man, have you seen the beauty i've created? perfect in every way where the waters only rise, and the leaves never fade pinch me if i'm dreaming, but i'm already awake perfection uninterrupted leaves me in a daze these leaves will never wither, these fruits will always bare there's healing in the water - such beauty i must share Son of Man have you seen the beauty I've created? where the waters only rise, and the leaves never fade.

your eyes lack the clemency that brought me here those whole hearted gestures from so long ago seem to fade with every wasted breathe why do you dance with hidden tension? is there something you left to mention? i'm a mountain to climb, but one day i'll get over myself a trick i've fallen for multiple times i'm a mountain to climb, but one day i'll get over myself oh, one day i'll get over myself i'm so susceptible exposed at every angle your hands lack the tenderness that held me dear callous hands as rough as your callous heart they cut like knives sharpened for the occasion no consistencies - a better mystery no consistencies, a loss of self i'm a mountain to climb, but one day i'll get over myself a trick i've fallen for multiple times i'm a mountain to climb, but one day i'll get over myself oh, one day i'll get over myself i'm so susceptible exposed at every angle

we packed our bags like the rest of 'em while you stuck it out like the best of 'em like the winds we rolled far and wide though like drums we were so hollow inside we thought we'd find ourselves along the way instead, we fell off track and went a stray we lost our path to the narrow gate we lost our path to the narrow gate don't worry i'm on my way and though i've had bad yesterdays, i still say hip hip hooray God's gift of breath we celebrate i'm marching towards a brighter day my path is lit, now i won't stray the broken hearted sing hooray the broken hearted sing hooray hip hip hooray so i've been writing s.o.s' in the sand but no seems to understand we watched our hope begin to curdle, but we fought on; leaping over hurdles i'm headed back to where i started to the home of the heavy hearted there's no angels guarding the forbidden garden there's no angels guarding the forbidden garden we're coming in. we're coming in. i'm on my way and though i've had bad yesterdays, i still say hip hip hooray God's gift of breath we celebrate i'm marching towards a brighter day my path is lit, now i won't stray the broken hearted sing hooray the broken hearted sing hooray keep on looking out for your prodigal sons they're on the way - the battle is won this war has no enemies when i look around, all i see is everybody celebrating our victory today is the day, we sing hip hip hooray.

my last ditch effort is just as pointless as the first fallen yesterdays call for more antics of the worst the self supremacists are far too blind to see the sharpened deceit (sharpened deceit) we bathed our days in mischief, soaked ourselves in sin our conscience paid the price, despite our hearts of tin i'm too proud to beg, blood too thick to bleed but the last thing i need, is for you to leave me don't leave me. oh my God it seems like there's no help in sight so let's rip open the sky tonight we're changing like the seasons, and falling like the rain help me convince myself everything's still the same as the sun sinks a little lower and i start to sink, too i lift my eyes to the hill and leave it all to you constructive criticism only tears me down hiding in the circumstance such failure, so profound surreal symphonies are my only friends you led the game the whole time, but your score only matters in the end and now it's over. oh my God it seems like there's no help in sight so let's rip open the sky tonight we're changing like the seasons, and falling like the rain help me convince myself everything's still the same as the sun sinks a little lower and i start to sink, too i lift my eyes to the hill and leave it all to you i'm going under, i'm going under fast how much longer will this last? i'm going under, i'm going under fast in due season, this will pass.
