lyrics

The quiet of the night gives me peace in spite of everything you told me
A spoken word is a thought wasted
I'll never care how much you know me
I've lost my sense of belonging with you
I'm so sick of being watched
I'm so tired of feeling lost
I push back on everyone else but you cried and begged as if you needed my help
I'm so sick of my mind
I'm so tired of hearing it talk
I want to turn the volume down, hide it far away somewhere emotion drowns
Introduced to the friend of a friend
Once he's gone I'll need him again
I feel better, sometimes for days
Forget my problems and get lost in the haze
The taste on my tongue is bittersweet
My skin crawls with violent reactions
It's a risk I will gladly repeat to achieve satisfaction
Forever loyal to the broken side, I've kept my enemies close
Expose my soul and leave it open wide, caught somewhere between man and a ghost
Another night where the day stays the same
Mentally disfigured and unspeakably depraved
I didn't hear the mirror's whispered warnings
It took back more than it gave
I've lost the sense of belonging in me
My neck has finally reached the end of the rope
I can't outrun myself when there's nowhere else to go
The more I medicate the more I'm getting ill
Perform an exorcism on my own free will
Into the gaping mouth of madness
I'm here alone, it's only me
I hover far beyond my body
I don't recognize what I see
Cold as ice, cold to the touch
I wanted better for my life
All my parts are paralyzed, I'm growing weaker by the day
They told me nothing would come easy
In my heart I fantasized I'd finally found a way
They told me noone would believe me
I'd rather burn than fade away
Nothing will ever make me stay
As I settle in for the long ride I wonder what it's like on the other side
I hear the spirits when the wind cries but I never come across any blue skies
Why? Why?
