Ghost Type - Beast Lyrics

Cross your fingers, hope to die
Living life on borderline
My brain clocks in overtime
I've still got some hills to climb
Inner beast is off the leash
Empty feeling, need to feed
Collect the tax, pay the fee
I've still got myself to beat

Open my chest up, find nothing inside
Empty the cage where the animal hides
Heart barely beating, what keeps him alive?
What makes you human, after you die?

A names just a name if you do nothing to claim it
Fame quickly fades, when you don't make the payment
A risks just dismissed, until you go and take it
A smiles just a lie, if you don't know how to fake it

Losing pieces of myself
Don't think they can take it out me
Voiceless, sitting on a shelf
Grab the knife, need a tracheotomy
Quit correcting me, my trajectory
What could your, objection really be?
Please just let me be, need some-, trust me

Drowning, I'm drowning, I'm floating face down and
I'm doubting, I'm doubting. My brain needs rerouting
With vision de clouded, my route is still shrouded
My namesake ain't lauded, and no ones applauding

Cross your fingers, hope to die
Living life on borderline
My brain clocks in overtime
I've still got some hills to climb
Inner beast is off the leash
Empty feeling, need to feed
Collect the tax, pay the fee
I've still got myself to beat
