Wirehead

Dead til my last day
Can't erase my shadow
That's the price I pay
Can't erase my-

Trust the judgement of a straw man
Stitched in a daydream by the fates
Heaven send your works to us
Bestow your purpose
Lock your gates
Can I feel alive in the right now
Pissin' in the wind 'til we all drown
Its crazy how our words make our vows
We're all liars and cowards
Asking won't you lay down
Won't you
Lay down and tell me the truth
I feel like I'm turning into you
Meant for nothing
Tired-eyed

Stand up on the hillside
Breathing the atmosphere
Blinded by the ash cloud
Praying for rain
Prisoner to passage of time
You're only living for the sorrow
Tomorrow the skyline will still be the same

Dead til my last day
Can't erase my shadow
That's the price I pay
Can't erase my shadow

Runnin' for nearly fifteen years
I wanna come back someday but what
Precious little good is there to a silhouette
Of somebody like me
Let me feel alive in the right now
Sick of playin' king in a false crown
So put my head up on a spike, take a bow
Just as long as I reach that higher ground

Stand up on the hillside
Breathing the atmosphere
Blinded by the ash cloud
Praying for rain
Prisoner to passage of time
You're only living for the sorrow
Tomorrow the skyline will still be the same

Here's to the architect who sought to shed my skin from bone
The choice was only mine
Denying loss of innocence to keep my barren throne
Alone in time

Wirehead
Wirehead
Don't you know I'm already dead, already dead,
Yeah
Wirehead
Wirehead
I won't consent!
Plug me in! Plug me in I said!

Lay down and tell me the truth
I feel like I'm turning into you
Turning into you

Stand up on the hillside
Breathing the atmosphere
Blinded by the ash cloud
Praying for rain
Prisoner to passage of time
You're only living for the sorrow
Tomorrow the skyline will still be the same

Dead til my last day
Can't erase my shadow
That's the price I pay
Can't erase my shadow
