Dying to Believe Lyrics

Like dragging nails through my skin

Strip the scar, scratch the itch
Dig your nails deep, until the nerve is good and raw
Pulling teeth again, to pay for all your sins
The blue pill or the red, all you want are enemies

Feel the tension set to break
We've swallowed more than we can take
Like dragging nails through my skin

Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will
Find you where you sleep

We'll find you where you sleep

God complex, let's start a war
Whose prayers will you answer, whose will you ignore
Paint it black and torn apart
Baptized in hate to the beat of a hollow heart

Feel the tension set to break
We've swallowed more than we can take
Like dragging nails through my skin

Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will
Find you where you sleep

We'll find you where you sleep

We'll find you where you sleep
Because it's a sick fucking world in a sick fucking time
Splitting at the seams as you desecrate the hive
The cancer's in your heart The poison's in your mind
Forked tongue motherfucker tell me how the hell do you sleep at night

How do you sleep at night?

How do you sleep at night?

Dying to believe

Die, die, dying to believe
This beast you resurrected won't break its leash
We're die, die, dying to believe
That the ghost of the ills of this world will
Find you where you sleep

What is the Meaning of Dying to Believe?

Parkway Drive's intense lyrics explore themes of disillusionment, societal decay, and internal conflict. The visceral imagery of "dragging nails through my skin" symbolizes deep emotional and psychological pain. The song critiques the cyclical nature of hate and violence, suggesting that society is trapped in a self-destructive loop. The references to "God complex" and "baptized in hate" point to the misuse of power and the corrupting influence of fanaticism. The recurring line "dying to believe" underscores a desperate search for truth or redemption amidst chaos. Ultimately, the song questions moral integrity by asking how one can sleep peacefully while perpetuating harm, highlighting a profound disconnect between actions and conscience.
