lyrics

The thoughts in my head are sickening,

and I can’t breathe with my head to the ground.

Dirt in my mouth – turn to see the stars.

Choke on the earth as the heavens watch.

The faces of the people I will never love.

The bodies of the people I will never know.

I’m better off not dreaming anymore at all.

Wake me up – reality’s unreal enough.

The thoughts in my head are deafening.

Screaming a story begging for an ending.

With no plot lines, just wasted time.

Loss of mind – destroying images.

Images passing by like pages in the wind.

The writing is indistinct – the papers been stained.

A thousand-word description wouldn’t change a thing.

I still would never figure out exactly what you mean.

This story is something no one should have to read.

My brain is scattered, grey-ugly matter.

My fingers wrapped around too much current.

Smoke clouds burning, my eyes turn red.

Shedding light on bruised face sunken in.

What happened to me? I’m not the same.

Sick of this fake smile – sick of pretending.

What happened to you? You’re not my dream.

You’re less than anything I need.

“You never care much for anything.”

Well, I never said I wanted this or anything.

My last breath was a lifetime ago.

Please tell me to leave. I can’t on my own.

I’m tearing every page out.

Taking down every picture framed around this house.
