"Suffering" lyrics

I've thrown aside my worries
But the cares, they bite me back
I'm taking twenty vitamins a day for the iron I lack
I don't need food, I don't need sleep
Don't tell me that I'm wrong
I don't know what I'm doin'
But can you please just play along?

My head is made of flowers, my body made of steel
'Cause I can't think
Can't hear, can't feel

They say, "A picture's worth a thousand words," but I disagree
I can't imagine anything 'cause I can't see
I won't break the ice, though, what else is there to do?
'Cause suffering in silence is better than suffering with you

So, I jumped out with a parachute, but the ground caught me off guard
Karma for the rules I break, the ones I disregard
I can feel the tension rising, what fate is worse than this?
Stuck between the ones I love and the ones I miss

My head is made of shrubbery, and my body made of stone
'Cause I can't for the life of me reap what I have sown

They say, "A picture's worth a thousand words," but I disagree
I can't imagine anything 'cause I can't see
I won't break the ice, though, what else is there to do?
'Cause suffering in silence is better than suffering with you

I tried to sink and never float
'Cause my head is underwater
I'm here by choice, by my own hand
I'm a lamb sent in to slaughter
I'm aware of my own body
I can feel beneath my skin
I can wash away my insecurities
But can't wash away my sin

They say, "A picture's worth a thousand words," but I disagree
I can't imagine anything 'cause I can't see
I won't break the ice, though, what else is there to do?
'Cause suffering in silence is better than suffering with you
