Alpha

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's always better on the other side of it

Wanting what you'll never have

It's a goddamn broken state of mind

The one that we've been living in

It's never greener inside the mess we're in

Wanting what you'll never have

The less we are content the more we throw away

What little time we have left to grow

Separate mind from me

But still I have no adamant will to leave what little time we have

Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive

And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white

Can we show the ones who are blind?

It's envy eating away at the core of us

Wanting what you never have

Isn't it the point of living to breathe

Knowing this is all we need

It's never greener inside the mess we're in

Wanting what you never have

The less we are content the more we throw away

What little time we have left to grow

Separate mind from me

But still I have no adamant will to leave what little time we have

Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive

And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white

Can we show the ones who are blind?

(Show them that we're not blind)

Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive

And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white

Can we show the ones who are blind?

Fly passed the withered trees

Ascend to holy air and breathe

(Separating, drive me crazy, separating mind)

Fly passed the withered trees

Ascend to holy air and breathe

(Separating, drive me crazy, separating mind)

This want is menacing it will not leave us be

Can we purge this?

The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds

How did we get like this?

How did we get like this?

(Can we purge this?)

Step out in the rain

Feel life in our veins

Step out in the rain

Feel life in our, Feel life in our veins

(How did we get like this?

Can we purge this?

The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds

How did we get like this?)
