Sweating in this skin of cold and heat and disarray
Something will change, because nothing stays the same
Choking to breathe in the air of your ever present 
beauty
Fighting to hold onto the ledge of my artificial sanity
This time I'm breaking down
I won't recover from the fall
Sometimes it's okay to break
To bleed and lose it all
But I cannot seem to satisfy myself and keep it all in 
line
I'm looking for the answers as they blur before my eyes
Enjoy all of these emotions
Because they bring me to my knees
A temperamental dissident, hopeless and diseased
I'm screaming on the inside and the walls are getting 
thin
Drowning in the afterglow of hatred and delusion
Believing in the future and all that it implies
The promise of tomorrow and the love you hold inside
Trying not to fail this time
Trying not to let you down
Hoping I can make you smile even when I'm not around
I'm begging for your mercy and the world we made that 
night
Holding onto all those dreams that never seem to die
I still don't have the answers
But I'm searching every day
Looking for the reason why I'm living in this place
Enjoy all of these emotions
Because they bring me to my knees
A temperamental dissident, hopeless and diseased
I'm screaming on the inside and the walls are getting 
thin
Drowning in the afterglow of hatred and delusion
Wrap me up inside your arms and know that I will never 
leave
The time we share has come to mean everything to me
So keep me in your chamber and chain me to your throne
And I will do the same, my love, and chain you to my 
own
