[Lyric] Snip Snip (Shudder)

My sands of time, they rewind
Memories that make me cry
All the lies, the deceit
Names wrongfully labelled me
My mistakes, all I've hurt
Should leave me buried in dirt
Culminates, and it drapes
On my body like a cape

I know that I've done wrong
Believed lies told all along
I was never needed
Caution never heeded
Filled my brain with poison
Devoid of my reason
How this cape chokes me so
Digging deep into my throat

The stitching made me too willing
My hands broke free, now I'm sitting
Under the light of my window
Cutting my fabric nice and slow
And under these sharp scissors of mine
Cut away the toxic with its shine
Slipping the blades so deep inside
Tossing the bad things out aside
So if you may think of mocking me
Look at what I've cut out, then you'll see

Playing with your scissors
You may slip and get hurt
But the blades guide my hand
So much that I can't stand
In this night I'll craft it
The future I've wanted
Take the blood from my eyes
Lead me into clear skies

Oh, to make it go away
I don't wanna play
Ah, can I try again
Where I'll finally get a say?

Cutting away the rotten seams
Snip, snip away those awful things
And remove my diseased puppet strings
Cut and cut away all that it brings
Ripping the negativity
Never to let it ruin me
The sound of a snip, it pleases me
Going one more step towards my peace
Inside the mess, and the blood, and the pain
I wanna be born from these flames
Unjustly fallen from my grace
Those who must spurn their lies choke on the blame
Shred down the things causing me my shame
Leave me behind to clear my name
Amidst the scraps with blood unclean
My spirit haunts these halls, watching this sick routine
