Lyrics
Cauterize
I can't contain, or field alone
my impressive inner army of fools.
And i want you, to join their ranks
Welcome to the war of self-abuse
Do you want to die?
I can't close this wounded side
The spark has left your eyes
If only guilt could cauterize.
After all we've survived
how could you dare to end your life
Dark parades, family slides
Is this a fitting final lulaby?
Do you want to die?
I can't close this wounded side
The spark has left your eyes
If only guilt could cauterize.
