lyrics

I see the clock, I watch the hours slowly ticking away
(I wish I could get these minutes back)
The days are longer and I wonder when my life’s going to change
(This waiting is going to make me crack)
The words I wish I would’ve said
Alive in me, but left for dead
I’m just a puppet so I’ll tell you what you want me to say
(Cuz it’s not for me; that’s what it seems)

*And every time I fall asleep,
I hear your voice like gunshots from under my sheets
And you’re saying the words that are making it worse
You compromised my dignity cuz your life sucks
But I’m falling in the debris of the pain and the hurt you create for the world

I’m getting tired and impatient and I don’t want to wait
(About to explode, so hit the deck)
I’m overwhelmed by all the shit that’s piling up on my plate
(The car keys that led to the car wreck)
Assuming roles, attending these memorials of my dead dreams
Dressed up in bullet holes while bodybags are sealing their fate
(Cuz it’s not for me; that’s what it seems)

*
And every minute going by we die a little from inside
And nothing ever gonna hold me back
The padded walls have kept you in
Your never ever gonna see daylight again
But when! Were you ever my friend! My friend!

Stored up in my heart for oh, so long
Without knowing anything was wrong
(x2)

My feelings lost pigment, and now they’re only getting cold
Just zip them in this body bag, and take them to a place unknown
(Without knowing anything was wrong)
(x2)

And every time I fall asleep, I hear your voice like gunshots from under my sheets
And you’re saying the words that are making it worse
