Fractured Minds

The morning bleeds through broken blinds Another day I leave behind

I hear the world outside my door

But I don't feel a part of it anymore A thousand thoughts

I never speak

A hundred nights without relief

I've learned to smile,

I've learned to lie And hate

the man I keep inside

I watch the colors fade to grey While everything keeps moving

I try to find the words to say But nothing feels worth

proving

I CAN'T ESCAPE THE THINGS I THINK!

THEY WEAR MY FACE,

THEY SPEAK FOR ME!

I WATCH THE WORLD THROUGH HOLLOW EYES!

AND WONDER WHAT'S STILL LEFT INSIDE!

I'M STILL AWAKE!

I'M STILL AFRAID!

THE NOISE INSIDE

WON'T FADE AWAY! There's something underneath my skin

That turns my every thought against me

I know the words before they're said

Still let them tear through everything

And when the anger finally dies

I'm left alone with what I've done

I try to bury yesterday But every morning digs it up

I used to know the sound of peace Before the noise became

my name Now even when the room is still

There's something screaming underneath

I close my eyes against the light

But every thought remains awake And all the things I try to

hide Are all the things I cannot shake GET OUT OF MY

HEAD!

I KNOW THAT VOICE!

I KNOW THAT FACE!

I KNOW THE THINGS I

CAN'T

ERASE! I

AM NOT THE THINGS I THINK!

BUT THEY WON'T LET ME FUCKING SLEEP!

I CAN'T ESCAPE THE THINGS I THINK!

THEY WEAR MY FACE,

THEY SPEAK FOR ME!

I WATCH THE WORLD THROUGH HOLLOW EYES!

AND WONDER WHAT'S STILL LEFT INSIDE!

I'M STILL AWAKE! I'M STILL AFRAID!

AND EVERY DAY I WAKE UP HERE

WITH EVERYTHING I CAN'T ESCAPE!

The morning bleeds through broken blinds I watch the light crawl up

the wall

Another day I can't explain

Another night I can't recall
