Disassociate and disconnect to detach the rhythms that bind
You to life the same old culprits
The ones like breath and pulses
Decide to reject and shed the charade of sanity, defeat
Minimal self-reflections have left you worse for the wear
Deep dive dig into dissent, deliver one last message
I've checked out of the place and my decency is erased
I'm revived in this distance
I realize I won't miss this
It's like every day I find a new way to disintegrate away
I swear every day I find a brand new way
Motor functions misfire, misstep
Excessive thoughts causing missed breaths
I'll turn purple before it's my time to search for a fix
Every cell in my body builds up this prison and it's filled up
with convicts each whose song is
Something wrong with social bondage
Dissolve and degrading away, decay and deteriorate
The strongest of all solvents goes by the name of a new day
I'm derived from resistance
I've realized I've never been fit
It's like every day I find a new way to deteriorate away
I swear every day I find a brand new way to disintegrate away
