Figure This Out

Been asleep for years on end
Spent too much time trying to wake the dead
Caged birds sing for freedom forlorn
This house is unkempt, and weeds come up from the floorboards
It's true, the people that I love are the ones I've put through hell
Pages torn, body bruising
Will I ever burn bright without diffusing

I still hear that lovely sound
Comes straight through my pores and reverberates me inside out
Trading blows with myself
A stubborn reminder I can't be somebody else

If you don't say it out loud it's not true
The thought just dangles in your head like a rope lowered to save you
When you tug it comes crashing down
Now I'm left here all alone to figure this out

Now I'm waking up and I'm cold
Have we got to the part where you pick up the phone
I say I'm sorry I've been so detached
I'm a stranger in this vessel, can't find my way back
