Lyrics
i'm going back
of course i am
as if i ever had a choice
back to what i always knew i was
on the inside
back to what i really am
look at this pathetic place i made
with little bits of sticks and hair
and anything i found along the way
and tell yourself, you know?
you're not really what you know you are
you know?
of course you do
i think i may have even listened to you
i think i may have even listened to you
at the height of my demise

breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe…
break through the surface and breathe

i am forgiven
i am free
i am a field on fire

and oh my god, i have missed you
it has been so long
and i am stronger than i have ever been in my decline
i am stronger than i have ever been in my decline
for now i know, now i know, now i know for certain
now i know for certain
oh, burn motherfucker
carry the carcass and throw it on
pull up a chair and watch
the flies come roaring out
and will surround the entire world
and blacken out the sky and every last one of you
like a plague of locusts
like an exit
like an end
like an end
like an end
like the end

breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe…
break through the surface and breathe

i am forgiven
i am free
i am a field on fire

i can't tell if i am dreaming anymore
