lyrics

Can anybody hear me in here?
I don’t know what to say
And I don’t know how to free my lungs
To properly communicate

It’s getting lonely in here
But I guess this is where I belong
All dust, dirt, and forgotten memories
And the fear that I was made wrong

Please hear the silent screaming
The tears I cannot yet cry
I’m unsure if I deserve this pain
And if I do, the reasons why

There’s bleeding bits and barren sharp bones
Loosened teeth and tears and tones
Who even knows what the truth is
If you can no longer live it

Be careful with your words
My heart beats in my chest
The shrieking won’t leave me alone
I’m too tired to give myself a rest
Man, this feeling’s far too well-known
Well maybe I am wrong
But as long as I feed myself lies
Then maybe I will become strong

You say you know me better
Or maybe you just hope I’m immune
Don’t worry for just a bit longer
I’ll tighten up this mask for you

Maybe this is the wrong path
But only time will tell
I’d like to think that I’m trying my best
But good could always be well

May I live before I die
Or must I die before I live
Then they’ll be asking why
Why my shoulders have sagging skin

The days won’t stop running from me
I’ll make them stay if I have to
I’ll chain Father Time to me
And then flush us both down the drain

Be careful with your words
My heart beats in my chest
The shrieking won’t leave me alone
I’m too tired to give myself a rest
Man, this feeling’s far too well-known
Well maybe I am wrong
But as long as I feed myself lies
Then maybe I will be strong
