I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
Break and mend, hear the call
A crack in the sky
Be a friend, build a wall
And I'll be the fly
I've been staring out the window
At the world burning down
You can nail it to my head
No, I'm not wearing the crown
It's not safe inside my head
It's not safe inside my head
I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
I was made in the dark
Original sin
Be the blade, leave your mark
And I'll be the skin
I've been livin' with no feelings
I get so sick and tired
Of just staring at the ceiling
While the room is on fire
It's not safe inside my head
It's not safe inside my head
It's not safe inside my head
It's not safe inside my head
No, no
I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
I need keys that can't be made
The sun and the shade
A needle and thread
What I feel, is best unsaid
It's not safe inside my head, no no
I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
It's always the same
I'm better off dead
It's all razors and chains
I'm better off dead
