Transcend (by Means of Escape)

I'm pacing 'round in circles You'd think I was a vulture Preying on the crumbs left on the floor I'm scratching the walls until my hands Turn into stubs There is nothing left for me here Escape. Escape This place of blood and yellow tape Escape. Escape Before it's too late Oh, shit Everyday I'm wasting away in the mirror No hope, just slop and swill Dragged down by my dregs of failure A never-was, never-is, never-will Burned bridges and a map of dead ends Transients who will never transcend Goddammit, I'm crying out for help Dreams paralyzed and left on the shelf Wearing Death Incarnate's cheap perfume I'm lost in my own cage A novel; scribbled on every page "You will die alone" Escape. Escape This place of blood and yellow tape Escape Before it's too late Oh, shit Everyday I'm wasting away in the mirror No hope, just slop and swill Dragged down by my dregs of failure A never-was, never-is, never-will Burned bridges and a map of dead ends Transients who will never transcend Rejoice in disgust All alone. All alone in molded homes of black dust and bone All alone. All alone in molded homes of regret and stone All alone with the discards that were thrown On the floor with the needles, cum, blood, and bone Escape. Escape This place of blood and yellow tape Escape. Escape Before it's too late Oh, shit Everyday I'm wasting away in the mirror No hope, just slop and swill Dragged down by my dregs of failure A never-was, never-is, never-will Burned bridges and a map of dead ends Transients who will never Transcend their own past
