lyrics

It should be so simple
To remove every trace
To disappear entirely
From this time and place

To retract each and every mistake
To recollect everything lost
To rectify all past regrets
To venture back all rivers crossed

Intensified Madness
Is all that it takes
To drive away sadness
In case your heart breaks

To elevate everything you feel
To nullify all that’s been spent
To permeate everything real
To straighten out all that’s been bent

But your mind is so beautifully decayed
Your thoughts are so strangely delayed
The ashes you rise from so black
From now on there’s no turning back

A morning of cruelty
And everything’s right
To set the stage for one more
Performance tonight

To intensify everything fake
To turn back the clock in your head
To make one last dreadful mistake
And forget every last word you said

Your mind is so beautifully decayed
Your thoughts are so mercifully frayed
The ashes you rise from so black
From now on there’s no turning back

Your mind is so wonderfully demoralized
Your body so oddly intact
The infant you carry so innocent
From now on there’s no turning back
From now on there’s no turning back
From now on there’s no turning back
From now on there’s no turning back
