I have an illness and it's called myself
I am so desperate
I'm getting in over my head
I regret so many things Ive done
The past is to remind me how broken I am
How naive I was
I've suffered the consequences
This world is not for me
I've suffered the consequences
Ive failed you
Ive failed everyone
Ive put so many things above you, but you still are always there for me
I don't know who I am anymore
If I even know who I was how naive I was
My head starts pounding
My body begins to burn
I'm tired
I'm beat down
And my hope is dying
Ive suffered the consequences
This world is not for me
Ive suffered the consequences
Ive failed you
Ive failed everyone Ive put so many things above you, but you still are always there for me
I don't know who I am anymore if I even know who I was

    Song Meaning:This is from an interview with Johnny.

    "The reason for this song's name is that our guitarist [Andrew Whiting] wanted our whole record to be in drop-A tuning. We went with B for the majority of the album, so this song in drop-A is for Andrew. We just wanted to make the heaviest, sludgiest song we possibly could. This song is about putting things above God and how He still is always there for you. No matter how many times we deny Him, He knows how broken we are and still loves more than anything.
