"Scab" lyrics

My mirror so much more beautiful than I
Trippin' like shoelaces, we're tied
To remain soulless for a while
I'll be a joke to make you smile
Growing so old, get sick and die
They look a little old, we're sick of time
Ticking around and round and round
No one notices my cries
And no one cares if I am kind
So if I was mindless, it's the fine
If we come back like less next time
Or is it hopeless seeking help
Or is my selflessness not right
Am I just egotistic now?
Doing just a little takes a lot
But what is left if we do not?
Is it supposedly enough
To do bare minimum a lot?
You're a wound, oh, just a scab
Something just meaningful and bad
We were both beautiful and sad
If only both of us had had
You're a wound, oh, just a scab
Something both meaningful and bad
We were both beautiful and sad
If only both of us had had

I'm thinkin', oh
I'm thinking, no distraction
I'm drinkin', oh
I'm thinking, no distraction
Tell me, kind person, could you help me?
I have found myself becoming so selfish
I hyperfocus on my own affliction (I'm thinkin', I'm thinkin')
Thus manifesting what isn't
Oh kind stranger, I fear I am now in danger, and
I fear I can't take it much longer
Only the kindness of a stranger can help me save her
Princess of my devotion, for you are across the ocean

Disgusting
Pathetic

Where fear flowers, I cannot
Under the dark and permafrost
Waiting to fly tonight, a raven
Waiting to hear the ultimatum
Just about too late to stop
Just in time to try, but not
Into your arms and not the vacant
Into a time of contemplation
Despite many brave attempts
Can't escape the death sentence
Could this shame be all I got
From all these years of work, for what?
All this love became frustration
All of the gold turns so degrading
Everything was once not this
Nothing left to lose or risk

What if I can't win over next time?
What if I can't win next time?
I can't win next time
I can't, I can't (Oh-oh)
I can't (Oh)
What if
What if next time I never come out the other side? (Oh, oh)

The lesson is between
The rest is history
Our stories in the sky
Ignites a golden shrine
If I could find the way tonight
To find the energy to fight
Then I would search until I die
Because of you, my only light
If I could find the way tonight
To find the energy to fight
Then I would search until I die
Because of you, my only light
Our stories in the sky
Ignites a golden shrine
If I could find the way tonight
To find the energy to fight
Then I would search until I die
Because of you, my only light
If I could find the way tonight
To find the energy to fight
Then I would search until I die
Because of you, my only light
Destroy
Crush them
Destroy, destroy
Crush them
