lyrics

Thank your brain now
For your emotions
Thank your heart
For pumping that blood
Thank your body
Thank its touch
Thank it all
Until you've had enough

It’s alive! It’s alive! It’s alive! It’s alive!

I clearly don't control this
What you're looking at now is something soulless
So behold this
Just another hopeless case
Of a man who kept talking
Until he swallowed his face
That's food for thought
For a brain like a cannibal
It walks and talks
But while feeding its all animal
Mammal by the hairs
I'm aware that I'm slowly losing touch
But from what I was holding
That really ain't saying much
Got a hole under my sweater
My heart up in a clutch
Still pumping in vain
Out of veins
Left a heart shaped stain
When I fell from them chest pains

Perfecting anatomy
Dig deeper with a slice and cut
Because we can make it better
But not by much (I said)
We can make it better
But not by much
Perfecting anatomy
Dig deeper with a slice and cut
Because we can make it better
But not by much (I said)
We can make it better
But not by much

Thank your brain now
For your emotions
Thank your heart
For pumping that blood
Thank your body
Thank its touch
Thank it all
Until you've had enough

Headless but with face
Mouth full of distaste
Conversations a waste-less body
It hungers
Won't you please feed it?
Full of pain
You know that it needs it
I can't help myself
I can't get a grip of the fragments
That made me slip
This shit called memories
They’re apart of me
Embedded in my DNA
I can't get away from this
No matter how hard I try
I just evolve
When will I just die?

Perfecting anatomy
Dig deeper with a slice and cut
Because we can make it better
But not by much (I said)
We can make it better
But not by much
Perfecting anatomy
Dig deeper with a slice and cut
Because we can make it better
But not by much (I said)
We can make it better
But not by much
Perfecting anatomy
Dig deeper with a slice and cut
Because we can make it better
But not by much (I said)
We can make it better
But not by much
