"Well you know Jesus didn't die for us
So we could be half way between two places
He didn't die for us so we could
Not exactly be a total mess or failure anymore
But yet, nor to really be victorious either
And a lot of people I think get stuck somewhere in the middle
And they've got too much of god, to go on, to go back
But not enough of god to go on
(Backxwash)
And so it's very important to me
That I do whatever I can do, with the calling in my life
To help people be all"

I'm trying to save myself and I will do it by myself
I don't trust a soul and I don't need no fucking help
I'm paranoid that everybody's out to try and get me
I'm looking over shoulders as I'm passing through through the deli

Maybe it's my skin or maybe it's the way I dress
I'm tearing out my limbs and I won't make it till the next
I'm walking down the street and I'm anticipating death
All because a motherfucker looked at me, I said

I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the 

Back in the danger, no lessons
Was passing the strangers so scared
They acting invasive, oh dear
They slashing my face up (yah yah)

I'm happy I made it right unto the haste
My hand on my waist plan to escape
Gradually faint hit my ass on the pavement
Panic degraded step out of my face

I'm having a little bit of trouble
I saw a man who was sinister and he was bleeding and
Thought he was serial maybe he wasn't
Thought that he gon' kill me blade in my stomach
The void is place of the torment and mourning
Summoned by spirits from horror belowest
Darkest of depths, corners of corners 
Don't say I didn't warn ya, don't say I didn't warn ya

I go into the void
I go into the void
I go into the void
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the void
F*ck
I go into the 

"And so we might say
This is an experience of the void
Before time can explain what this is
And you know the funny thing 
Is it really can't be explanied
Because it has to be felt
Because it's a transformation of one's basic feeling
One's basic consciousnesses of life"
