Lyrics for Critical Darling
Yeah God's in a coma Put faith in a life support Running away won't feel the same If you reach your metaphysical last resort Oh, malevolence and purgatory give you pause It's a miracle you haven't broken any laws We are not entitled to surviving So keep your friends and your enemies thriving What a cliché (Just not true) What a giveaway (What comes now?) Can't be the last one Falling down Every time this happens I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me Why can't I covet And keep it away From the leeches who want to deceive? What is coming has begun It's something that you got to see We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption What is coming has begun An ending I won't live to see We tell ourselves there can't be hell if there's no heaven Once again we got suffocated In a sick perversion of a spider's web Crawling over all the spent digested pieces Celebrate the dead Here come all the judging eyes Got to pave the road with your best intentions I only wish you can picture a future That doesn't resemble your crazy inventions I don't mean it (Dream come true) I don't need it (What comes now?) another hollow one Must come down Every time this happens I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me Why can't I covet And keep it away From the leeches who want to deceive? What is coming has begun It's something that you got to see We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption What is coming has begun An ending I won't live to see We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven A mirror only works if you open your eyes Even then you have to understand what's inside The easy part is always hardest to see I know you'll never guess, but darling You're so critical Darling, you're so critical Oh, you're so critical Oh, this is a cave-in The weight of the catalyst Just wait, let the games begin Going to tell you all about it for the savages (Good for your) not another one (Just not true) not another one (What comes now?) this world is Falling down Every time this happens I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me Why can't I covet And keep it away From the leeches who want to deceive? What is coming has begun It's something that you got to see We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption What is coming has begun An ending I won't live to see We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven It's begun Oh, you're so critical Yeah Oh, you're so critical Critical Critical Critical Critical Critical Critical Critical
