Blackout

I feel like I am trapped inside my mind
I think when I'm lost to pass the time
When I speak my words are lost inside a maze
I just wish someone could see me through the haze

Who am I
But sticks and stones and flesh and bone
And why should I try
To fit in when I just feel more alone

Every morning I wake up and feel like I am still the same
Even though the night before I dreamt of fleeing from this pain
Sun is bleeding on my face, but I don't feel its warm embrace
I only feel the distance calling it's not worth the chase
I lay in bed a little while floating high up in the clouds
While the memories ring endlessly like voices in a crowd
I can't tell what they say and I don't care anyway
I just listen to the static while I fade away

I hate that words can't express how we feel
Maybe we're the only ones that feel this way
Broken from the wounds that we can't heal
We never heal
I hope that you can find a way to carry on
If you need me I'll be here from dusk 'till dawn

I'm waiting for the sunrise
Waiting for the moment I can close my eyes
'Cause I just want a way out
Life feels like a roundabout
I know that I'll wake up, and this dream will be a blackout
And I know that I'll stay the same
This sickness is a fire that is burning my brain
So I don't want you staying near
Standing there or laying here
Lest your mind be subject to my flame

I'm not singing this song 'cause I'm in love with you
I only sing because I know it's true
You know what I am going through
Even when I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

Every morning I wake up and feel like I am still the same
Even though the night before I dreamt of fleeing from this pain
Sun is bleeding on my face, but I don't feel its warm embrace
I only feel the distance calling it's not worth the chase
I lay in bed a little while floating high up in the clouds
While the memories ring endlessly like voices in a crowd
I can't tell what they say and I don't care anyway
I just listen to the static while I fade away

I'm waiting for the sunrise
Waiting for the moment I can close my eyes
'Cause I just want a way out
Life feels like a roundabout
I know that I'll wake up, and this dream will be a blackout
And I know that I'll stay the same
This sickness is a fire that is burning my brain
So I don't want you staying near
Standing there or laying here
Lest your mind be subject to my flame

Every morning I wake up and feel like I am still the same
Even though the night before I dreamt of fleeing from this pain
Sun is bleeding on my face, but I don't feel its warm embrace
I only feel the distance calling it's not worth the chase
I lay in bed a little while floating high up in the clouds
While the memories ring endlessly like voices in a crowd
I can't tell what they say and I don't care anyway
I just listen to the static while I fade away
