Lyrics
My head's an empty tank, my fuel line is shut down...my brain feeds waves throughout another meaningless day...elevated for a while and crashed because i faked a smile...apathetic fatigue sets in because i didn't believe...i didn't believe...
my weekend drug kept it cool for a short while...telephone's off-line as i close the last blind...sitting still for a change to open up my right hemisphere...i know i'll go insane if i don't figure out this game...figure out this game...
i don't want to stay the same...
but i'm too afraid to change...
i don't want this paranoia to reign...
i guess i only have myself...
myself to blame...
one day,
i'm going to finally wake up...
and understand, why this is all fucked up...
one day, i'm going to finally let go...
and realize, that this is part of my soul...
the outside air screams of thoughts and illusions...as i go back to craving for secuity...i need someone to take me away from this...or i'll be stuck alone in this stale abyss...stale abyss...
Realize that this is part of our soul...
