chonny jash - the heart acoustic lyrics

think of these thoughts as hackneyed and trite
clichéd, depraved, disturbing and contrived
shallow, cold, wretched. miserable, dark and any other adjective
choose to sit safely out of the sun
away from rays so blinding to the eye
singing songs someone’s already sung. averting gaze from beautiful light
but as complacency settles, anxieties will rise
and part this soul as jekyll parted hyde
now i’m but half of a hollow man’s lies:
the love, the hate, the emotional side
what’s the point in trying if this end result of dying
sits persistently encloaked in dimness
life can’t thrive controlled by digits

“i know i’m weak. i know that i’m vile
but sometimes that is needed to survive.”
that’s what i’ll say to rationalize
“i’m needed if we’re to stay alive.”
and yet, here i lie with black, sunken eyes
my mind’s consigned our sighs to a leaden void
the soul remains tempered. i remain plied
condemned ‘til we are both all but destroyed

but i know that one plus one can’t equal two
if happiness is both our truths
our total sum must equal one if we’re to find that golden hue
so spiraling down entropically. i beg of thee, have mercy on me
i am just a boy, you see
i plead of thee, have sympathy for me

see how it hurts when the sound
begins to ring
and you feel it start to rot
and you beg for it to stop
but you’ve already dug your lot in the ground
see how the mind tricks the soul
into being something sickly, dead and cold
as you feel it start to tire and fester so, so slowly
up until the point where it will finally die
just in time to see what could have been

do what you want, you automaton freak
no, i can no longer bring myself to care
this hollowed out vessel’s beginning to creak
so take control, let’s see how you fare
