There's still something there
When it dies, I'm cleaning bones
Spending time with change
Reeling from the way it was
Begin to see

Subsistence
Strip away the misery

Survive, the dark makes a dead man rise
Strips away a brilliant disguise
Fall, I gave it all to the escape
And I'm still here, just minus it all

So faithful to the veil
I wanted to die in that place
What's left will see

Subsistence
Teaching me through misery

Survive, the dark makes a dead man rise
Strips away a brilliant disguise
Fall, I gave it all to the escape
And I'm still here, just minus it all

Levels down
Reaching for me
A pound of flesh
Now watch me bleed
Still rage inside
I breathe free

Survive, the dark makes a dead man rise
Strips away a brilliant disguise
Fall, I gave it all to the escape
And I'm still here, just minus it all
