|
Waking up and fearing that I'll never get back into |
|
my sleeping |
|
Haunted by the darker, hidden sides of the family |
|
The silence and repression and unspoken old secrets |
|
come a-creeping |
|
The oh so clean, golden dream is not what it used to be |
|
Oh no no |
|
Lying in a darkened room the first time I hear my |
|
voice speaking |
|
You are next in line the golden child, try to remind him |
|
"keep breathing" |
|
Scared to hell, the pressure, conform to common sense |
|
Cut off from your past, you're disconnected from |
|
yourself |
|
Reach beneath the surface, it's time that you started |
|
believing |
|
In the shadow of the mountains, in a graveyard, |
|
the ancestors are sleeping |
|
I used to feel that everything I knew here could |
|
fit in my hand |
|
Linoleum and empty rooms, suburbian dreams were |
|
running deeper |
|
So naive that I believed the kingdom was at my command |
|
Oh no no |
|
Lying in a darkened room the first time I hear my |
|
voice speaking |
|
You are next in line the golden child, try to remind |
|
him "keep breathing" |
|
Scared to hell, the pressure, conform to common sense |
|
Cut off from your past, you're disconnected from yourself |
|
Reach beneath the surface, it's time that you |
|
started believing |
|
Lying in a darkened room the first time I hear my |
|
voice speaking |
|
You are next in line the golden child, try to remind |
|
him "keep breathing" |
|
Scared to hell, the pressure, conform to common sense |
|
Cut off from your past, you're disconnected from |
|
yourself |
|
Reach beneath the surface, it's time that you |
|
started revealing |
