Flatline Lyrics - Periphery Iii: Select Difficulty [explicit] - Periphery

All rise 

Judged like a jury, but in a trial 

No respect for the young and innocent 

Guilty 

Now shut the doors and then open fire 

So fail to make the connection 

and lose beauty in the mouth of rejection 

Can't we understand that no life is out of our hands? 

Suffocation and the fear of living setting in, so let go 

Let go before he let's go 

Patience is wearing thin and leaving him, so let go 

Let go before he lets go of of this life

This song is really important. If only more popular music could discuss mental illness and dysphoria in such explicit terms. See all 

I wonder what goes on? 

Before he lets go he says, 

Send an angel, they're growing from the hell beyond 

This weight is far too much to hold 

And this body doesn't feel like home 

Send and angel, I feel I'm dying all alone 

So lift me up or let me go 

'Cause this body doesn't feel like home 

No 

This body doesn't feel like home 

No 

Love feels far away 

The lack of motivation keeps the soul from bettering 

It's no life 

Now reach the next level with a bottle and a blade 

Retreating it is no way 

Suffocation and the fear of living setting in, so let go 

Let go before he lets go 

Patience is wearing thin and leaving him, so let go 

Let go before he lets go of this life 

I wonder what goes on behind those bloodshot eyes? 

I wonder what goes on? 

Before he let's go he says, 

Send an angel, they're growing from the hell beyond 

This weight is far too much to hold 

And this body doesn't feel like home 

Send and angel, I feel I'm dying all alone 

So lift me up or let me go 

'Cause this body doesn't feel like home 

Sleep now and carry on into the black of the night 

Sleep now and you'll be on your way 

There's another one moving on from the flatline 

Flatline 

Sleep into the fray 

Sleep between the night and day 

Sleep now and carry on into the black of the night 

Head greaves with everything but does it make it right? 

There's another one moving on from the flatline 

Flatline 

Sleep now and carry on, it doesn't matter 

Head greaves with everything but does it make it right? 

There's another one moving on from the flatline 

Flatline
