|
Submit to the numbness of narcotic sleep |
|
It dulls my eyes, and dilates under the expanse of grey skies |
|
The dark comes to surface |
|
In my dreams the world burns |
|
Falling like prisms |
|
Turned numb to the pain |
|
Like the father spit on me |
|
Tell me how worthless I am |
|
As daylight filters leaves |
|
She wept so many tears for me |
|
Of desperation |
|
Forgive me father |
|
Forsaken have been left to die |
|
The walking dead surround me |
|
The hubris of our shame |
|
Sleepwalkers |
|
(Walkers) |
|
And the lemmings of modern day |
|
...and I'm sorry I always pushed you away |
|
Please let me go |
|
Cradled in its grip with a gun up to my head |
|
Stomach aches... |
|
Skin is white... |
|
I'm always back for more |
|
You wanted to live |
|
Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe |
|
(Couldn't breathe) |
|
Inspiration has died |
|
(You cannot open my eyes, inspiration has died) |
|
...and nothing makes me feel alive |
|
(Alive, for years of the torment left covered in shame) |
|
Time |
|
Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe |
|
(Cut from your pride, born from your pain) |
|
As we slowly fade away |
|
In the end your all buried to me |
|
If callous hearts collide |
|
Could I re-open the wounds left scarred? |
|
To let those emotions bleed |
|
Of the ghost that's left of me |
|
Cradled in its grip with a gun up to my head |
|
Stomach aches... |
|
Skin is white... |
|
I'm always back for more |
|
You wanted to live |
|
Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe |
|
(Couldn't breathe) |
|
Inspiration has died |
|
(Has died) |
|
...and nothing makes me feel alive |
|
(Alive) |
|
Time |
|
Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe |
|
For the years of the torment |
|
Left covered in shame |
|
As your all |
|
buried to me |
