lyrics

can you tell me how we can trade places
the world is dark with so many blank faces
if we're being true, i'm envious of you
if i could shut my mind off or simply just erase it
i've lost the feeling for passionate embraces
i feel disgusting, wish i never was created

it would be heavenly, so heavenly
to be simplistic and ordinary
to be ignorant, unaware of oneself
the only answer is to kill myself

progress and move on
i'm out of step here, i'm too far gone
this worlds not somewhere that i belong

i'm fidgeting again and i can't stop
my teeth chatter and my knees begin to knock
the sweating's starting, the pain's back in my wrists
but you don't notice because to you i don't exist

but don't look at this as my final thoughts
the fear of losing you is too great of a loss

it is heavenly, so heavenly
to feel so wanted and know it's you and me
to be aware that you are always there
kills off the feelings to kill myself

it is heavenly, so heavenly
to feel so wanted and know it's you and me
to be aware that you are always there
kills off the feelings to kill myself
