ARCHITECTS
"Landmines"

I'm never gonna send the emptiness away
I'm tired of climbing up the walls
God, I need those chemicals
When I don't wanna feel it
No higher meaning when my bones begin to break
But if I turn myself to stone
Could I be better off alone?
I'd listen to my head, but I'd be dead this time tomorrow

[Chorus:]
Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off, 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken (Broken)
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines

[Post-Chorus:]
Yeah, I'm skipping over landmines
(Oh) Oh

Still got a feeling there's a hell that I've erased
It's like the fire took it all
But I still won't take the call
'Cause I don't wanna hear it
Too busy thieving all the time that I'm awake
I'm on another episode
Where the good gets overthrown
And none of us believe it

[Chorus:]
Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off, 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken (Broken)
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything is alright

[Breakdown:]
Another couple strikes, then I'm out
These punishments were made to measure
Drowning flowers in the depth of a drought
Doomed to repeat until the end of never

[Chorus:]
Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off, 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken (Broken)
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything'll be alright
