From The Outside In

	Colliding highs, the slender sky, descend into empty spaces
	Sensational wasted fall from grace
	They'll never give alternatives the longer you live without it
	It's all about what you learn to hate
	In your unaltered state, you found yourself too late
	I carve your name with razor blades to feel like a decade younger
	Insatiable hunger from within
	Accept that poison skin from the outside in
	Whenever I look down and when I throw my weight around
	The unintended consequences die
	Nobody said instead of dead, I'd feel I was wild and futile
	I never knew blood could run so cold
	Accept that poison skin from the outside in
	When I look down and when I throw my weight around
	The empty-handed meet with something worse
	A hand of narrow bone leads me on
	Among the fallen stones into the night less known
	Inside the needle veins, the blood is drained
	I lie unrestrained and breaking down alone
	This barren centigrade, the choices made from secrets best left kept
	The absence reconciled, the wrong denial is seen through hostile eyes
	I'm waking up, I'm better dead
	Arm yourself, defend no-one else
	Far inside, you're mine
	Live again for if not now, when?
	This is not the end
	Your life is compromised, most of it was
	All your endeavour lies lost
