crack open my skull
and find the strength
to withstand what you see
tangle your fingers in
the wires of my mind
welcome to the maze
nobody can save me
so don't even try
wires can connect us
to show you the pain
or they can choke us
to kill the last spark
no matter how much
i try to love you
it's too much of a mess
so leave my wires be
run away while you can
break a different skull
