Culling Kindness Lyrics

There won't be a next time

What did it cost myself to become the greater good

I've tried to write it all out to spell my thoughts out in blood

Lifetime medication overwhelmed with no sedation, self separation

It's so funny you were scarier at night

The blade I carry holding all the weight of every life

I've chosen not to take, just push me one more time

I'm treading on the snake that's culling the kind

Too terrified to die

Too scared to try

Dug my nails into my palms and cried

Spent my whole life with both arms tied behind my back

And now the chain snaps

I hope your legs can run faster than you run your mouth

I'm so close to the edge now, you're gonna find out

Now only at the end do you understand

Blacked out

Face down can't make a sound left my eyes gouged with a smile

Tapped out

Drowning in my own blood bleeding out fast on the tile

So tell me who hurt you

Convinced you of your virtue

Psychosomatic made up of your bad habits

The silver lining fades to gray

You'll never know

Never know what it's like

Watching your back

Watching the exits for the threats in your mind

I chose not to fight

It followed my whole life

On the defensive, ill intentions metastasized

There won't be a next time

Taking every ounce of self-control to keep you alive
