Today my past has come alive to eat All of the guts that I use to just keep my feet Moving left and right as my legs shake like trees Oh how I curse the heavens for not taking me Goddam! This whole mess that's me I don't trust myself (i'm in way too deep) And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me I awake much to my dismay to find that I'm still staring at the same ceiling I just wish once that I could get this right And have the angels from the south take me at night Goddam! This whole mess that's me I don't trust myself (i'm in way too deep) And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me all I have is meaningless And all I found is nothingness In this self-loathing sickness (2x) Goddam! This whole mess that's me I don't trust myself (I'm in way too deep) And every night I erase the day with the strongest drinks they'll give to me And all I have is meaningless And all I found is nothingness

    General Comment:this is a great song, it doesnt appear on the american album if im not mistaken but it is on the european i believe. this is obviously about depression as is most of this new album because of what Buddy has gone through over the years since Let it Enfold You, hes been in a hole or so he explained in Alternative Press and this album helped him finally express some of what he hadn't
