Lyrics

How sick do you need to be?
How far down you have to go?
How cruel do you want to seem?
Before the bottom is too low

cuz when you hit
you'll hit until it hurts
you'll bleed until you're empty
you'll struggle and you'll curse
against your fragility.

all the kings horses, all the kings men
cannot break your fall
you're just a shadow on the wall
Can your soul be born again?
until your demons let you go
you're just the shadow of who I used to know

Do you remember the curtain close
or the ending of the joke?
Do you remember remember clutching my throat
the moment your conscience broke
How about the downward spiral
or the years of denial
do you remember every time
you promised not another time?

Every promise that you break
And every plea that you ignore
I look but
I don't see you anymore

The darkness that you drank
Hollowed out your core
I look but
I don't see you anymore

Hold on to the ghost
Of anyone left at all
I look but
It's just shadows on the wall.

Strangled in blackness
drowned in ethanol
I look but
It's just shadows on the wall.

all the kings horses, all the kings men
cannot break your fall
you're just a shadow on the wall
Can your soul be born again?
until your demons let you go
you're just the shadow of who I used to know

all the kings horses, all the kings men
cannot break your fall
you're just a shadow on the wall
Can your soul be born again?
until your demons let you go
you're just the shadow of who I used to know
