I guess this is kinda like being on the phone to someone telling you how close to the edge they are and needing help...

lyrics

I cannot read these vertical lines
They make no sense to me
If you say them out aloud you'll challenge the air that I breath
Emotions run high another heavy day
I hate myself more for the pain
These last few minutes could never be ours again

Sharper edges mustn't blur
All around must stay focussed
Why can't I get my head straight
I don't want to choke

I cannot see horizontal lines
You blinded me years ago
Camoflage was decreased and now we cease
It's best to say no
Amusing myself in a wasted youth corpse host
I'm empty silent and still
I've said it before I'll say it again
I can slip from my window sill

Sharper edges mustn't blur
All around must stay focussed
Why can't I get my head straight
I don't want to choke

Sharper edges mustn't blur
All around must stay focussed
Why can't I get my head straight
