Breathe the Tedium

from I Am Become Death EP by Spitting Black

/

lyrics

What you crave an unmarked grave
Conditioned visions
Give everything, lose all feeling
The price of possession
Chase the promise to find some solace
When is it over?
A yawning distance earns you a pittance
The thought leaves you sober

Why?
And still you try, leaving all for want of a cause
Why do we pine for hollow lives?
Bleeding ourselves into deceiving jaws

Top of the chain, the shackles remain
There's no one to blame
Where is the joy?
You're rich and employed and feeling the same
There is no meaning, tired and needing satisfaction
An empty shell trapped in hell, your lifelong creation

Why?
And still you try, leaving all for want of a cause
Why do we pine for hollow lives?
Bleeding ourselves into deceiving jaws

You're chasing a dream, American dream
Breathe the tedium, Breathe the tedium
Chasing a dream living a nightmare

Ask yourself, why?
