"Into The Mud" lyrics

Why don't you
Dig yourself an even deeper hole?
Fill it up with
Something other than a shovel
Bury the trench in borderline
Surrounding your troubles
And when the world falls in
Don't let it be subtle

Why don't you cover up the rose
With more dirt?
Let it rot beneath the sun
It will not see
If your mind is your reality
You've got a twisted fate
If the ground is your insanity
Then it's far too late

Just sink away
Into the mud
That's taking the place
Your clear water reflection
Distort the color with your
Desire for perfection

Why don't you throw another punch
At your mirror?
Find poetry in the blood on your
Broken fist
Stare at the shattered face
As you watch your fall from grace
But still blame yourself
For the uncontrolled space

Just sink away
Into the mud
That's taking the place
Of your clear water reflection
Distort the color with your
Desire for

Perfection's not the finish of
Your lines drawn in the sand
But you let those cords tighten
Over heart and overhead
Watch the world fill up your lungs
All the sediment you dug
Will be nothing but the empty grave
That you've begun

Just sink away
Into the mud
That's taking the place
Of your clear, sweet water reflection
Distort the color with your
Desire for

Why don't you dig yourself an even deeper hole?
