I'll never let you get under my skin Unless you already did I know some monsters come from within One of which I'll never be rid Crash landed, and Houston we have a problem Cracked open a planet And a pandemic caught us Swallowed whole, the moment it marked us Scarred us Turned us inside out and mocked us Walked around in our skin With a cadaverous mask Can't even let the dead rest and Leave the past in the past I'm glad that I'm aptly Strapped with plasma gats Deadly to wipe off my feet On these hazardous mats Maybe I'm haunted by my tragic past But I'll rip my demons limb from Limb till I'm fresh outta gas Sorry but I had to vent just now So if you're crawling through an air duct Hunker down I mean it Keep to yourself or you'll Be placed in stasis 'Cause the dead have yet to remain dead They're graveless Now I'm up to my neck in this Hardly fight 'em off My name is Isaac Clarke And I'm soon signing off Survival's all I've left to do As you become nothin' but memory I know that I was never dead to you But I'll move forward because You're dead to me I guess I let you get under my skin For death, I have an affinity We all keep some demons within Which we supress with divinity What happens when you're lackin' resources And you're a hack Neck deep in external forces For sure, Ishimura could not afford this So rife with strife, and no life insurance But now we're wound up tight like a corset Of corpses, guts ruptured - it's abhorrent Shoulder blades made literal, form distorted Into an awful entity - sentience unimportant Carnage this visceral could never last Natural selection nobody's gettin' past My degree in engineering - mechanic But now I'm second guessing Wish I went with genetics Is everyone demented, defective, infected I stare death in the face and yet I'm irreverent Perseverance, keepin' me movin And just the memory of you Is keepin' me human Survival's all I've left to do As you become nothin' but memory I know that I was never dead to you But I'll move forward Why bother screaming don't see the point No one will hear it we're in the void As I drift into darkness Doom is drawing near me And all along I'm screamin' But nobody hears me Survival's all I've left to do As you become nothin' but memory I know that I was never dead to you But I'll move forward Because you're dead to me Because you're dead to me
