lost in the space between awake and sleep
lost in the silence between the sentences
breathing by instinct alone
(we are ours alone)
breathing the same stale air as the day before
(we are all alone)
i've spent so much time inside my cell, i've lost my mind.
buried alone, deep in this hole, no one will ever find me here
this crippling house in view, it cuts my curse in two
should i stay or should i leave
the shadows on my window sill, a vague reminder
of the world outside.
how was i to know i'd be stuck in here alone
wondering where my life went wrong
how was i to know that every stone i'd throw would come back at me
i've spent so much time inside my cell, i've lost my mind.
buried alone, deep in this hole, no one will ever find me here
why do all these pictures, smile back at me?
you're too busy living in the past
why does it seem like my whole life's behind me?
you're never happy with anything
