Run! One more time to that place inside my mind
Just! One more day (staring at these walls)
Make! One more dime to justify the waste
Time waits for none, the clock ticks and then you're done...
...then you're done...then it's all done
Spent years building my cage, every bar a coming of age
Just to make me forget all that I've learned in life
Poured tears for your challenge, another thorn to build the callas
Just to make me forget the difference of wrong from right
Watching it all just fade away,
eroding impressions in my mind,
wondering as waves recede - if sanity's been left behind
Maybe the waters of this day,
will unearth the peace I could never find,
‘cauz all of the shelter's gone, there's nowhere left to hide.
...there's nowhere left.....there's nowhere
Too many years, watching your motives made clear, holding my tongue, knowing I would not be heard
Too many years, watching you feed off their fear, staying the gun, clutching my heart as it burned
Watching it all just fade away,
eroding impressions in my mind,
wondering as waves recede - if sanity's been left behind
Maybe the waters of this day,
will unearth the peace I could never find,
‘cauz all of the shelter's gone, there's nowhere left to hide.
Run! One more time to that place inside my mind
Just! One more day (staring at these walls)
Make! One more dime to justify the waste
Time waits for none, the clock ticks and then you're done...
Storm's coming.
There's no running.
Light veins flow thru sky,
cracks, bangs drown out the cries.
Unnatural disaster
Let things slip too far,
Cannot erase the scars.
A future filled with hate
towards those who sealed their fate
we should have known better
we could have done better
the child knew better, but the world wouldn’t let her.
There always comes a price, to how we live our lives
Conquered by divide, it’s slow burn suicide.
You're selling the same lies,
you just rebrand them,
bullshit, hypocrisy,
served up in tandem
You fill the coffers,
then you dip your hands in,
Callous sacks of shit,
wrapped in suits and skin.
Burn.
Run! One more time to that place inside my mind
Just! One more day (staring at these walls)
Make! One more dime to justify the waste
Time waits for none, the clock ticks and then you're done...
And then you’re fucking gone.
Watching it all just fade away,
eroding impressions in my mind,
wondering as waves recede - if sanity's been left behind
Maybe the waters of this day,
will unearth the peace I could never find,
‘cauz all of the shelter's gone, there's nowhere left to hide.
There’s nowhere to hide….. nowhere……
