Broken Reverie

Too much noise in these hallways Heavy heads,

staring at the

floor (yeah) Lockers slamming like a gavel dropping down Rumors spreading quiet

through this paper town

Got a war behind my forehead every single day

Smiling for attendance while my thoughts decay

Notebook margins scribbled till the ink bleeds red

Counting down the hours lying awake in bed

Pressure climbing up the drywall

Pressure pushing through the chest Nobody hears what we never confessed (can

you hear it now?)

We are fire trapped beneath the floorboards

Walking quiet with a thunder inside

Every secret that you try to bury Found a place where the

young minds hide

(yeah, where the young minds hide)

Flipping through the screens looking for an escape

Trading all our fractures for a brand new shape

They call it just a phase till the ceiling cracks

Carrying an anvil on our teenage backs

No one asks questions when you keep in line

Saying 'I am fine' while we walk the borderline

Do you feel it breaking through?

Every little thing they told you not to do?

(hush

now) The static

is turning into

a storm

We are fire trapped beneath the floorboards

Walking quiet with a thunder inside

Every secret that you try to bury

Found a place where the young minds hide

We burn out

in the quiet!

(we burn

out)

Just trying to survive our own heads (yeah)
