tantamount

Bonfire vanity heavy saturnine dreams
Took a pinch of salt tossed it into the breeze
Why is chlorine washing more
We're already licking off the floor

Magnify splinters forget all you knew
Screaming my scalpel cut out the view
Building Colossus so we're not alone

Freedom to choose which freedom we lose instead of abuse
Clashing ideals under feelings concealed that we can't help but steal

This is the best we ever had
Smiling always makes us sad
Taking the blood and feeling relief
Dying inside but living belief
It's a tantamount talent
Don't fall without pain
We're slaying the dragon
We can't escape
Living in shadows
Searching for light
You're giving up passion
Just for the fight

Freedom to choose which freedom we lose instead of abuse
Clashing ideals under feelings concealed that we can't help but steal

Nothing is naked nothing is ill
Pounding our whisky with a poison pill
