I hear your cries in the dead twilight
I know you long for the dawn of night
For all of you who fight
I'm living proof

I watch you groan and writhe in pain
I pass you through torrential rain
For each word dripping with disdain
I'm living proof

I'm living proof that we do fight
I'm living proof, try as I might
To live a happy and a wholesome f***ing life
I'm living proof our paths are grim
That every time the lights grow dim
We trudge on through the ash, carnage, and strife

I smell the copper in your skin
Each time you rupture from within
For those who have to force their grin
I'm living proof

For those of you who seldom sleep
Because your thoughts run dark and deep
For all who take the fatal leap
I'm living proof
