I spilled my thoughts into the ocean
Hoping they get back to you
We’re lost with the love we once knew
I spilled my thoughts into the ocean
Save me while I’m still young
I’m as fucked up as they say
I can’t fake the daytime
Found an entrance to escape into the dark
Got false lights for the sun
It’s an artificial nocturne
An outsider’s escape from a broken heart
If it’s a war you came to see
You will never see a waved white flag in front of me
I can’t end up dead, I won’t be mislead
I’ll keep singing this song inside my head
Oh my God.
If only I knew,
If only I knew about the world without the bullshit and the lies,
We could’ve saved time.
They could’ve saved me.
But instead I’m here drowning in my own fucking mind,
And I’ll be damned if you’re the death of me.
I won’t let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if I do,
It’s you,
Oh it’s you,
They add up to
I’m in love with you,
And all these little things
With every breath you take you’re dying
With every step we take we’re falling apart
I’m awake, and trying
While you’re sleeping like a babe
Beside him
I’m on the ledge while you’re so
God damn polite and composed
And I know you see me,
And you’re making it look so easy
What comes and goes,
I’d go without
Can we create something beautiful and destroy it?
Nobody knows I dream about it, this is my imagination.
This isn’t fair.
Don’t you try to blame this on me.
My love for you was bulletproof but you’re the one who shot me.
And god damn it, I can barely say your name,
so I’ll try to write and fill the pen with blood from the sink.
So lead me back
Turn south from that place
And close my eyes to my recent disgrace
‘Cause you know my call
And we’ll share my all
And Now children come and they will hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
‘Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we’ll be alright
Don’t you say you had a part of it
I guess we’ll never know
Oh would you say that had a part of it
Well I guess we’ll never know
Constant recovery
I see you choke and it takes my breath away
But all is good, we close our eyes
They all accept the lie
So bury what you are outside
Brother, promise you won’t leave me
I know you’re tortured within
Your eyes look hungry again
But I’ll never wander, my friend
Will somebody believe in this suicide?
Am I the only one that thinks that you should stay alive?
Oh, I became the train as you backed up on the ropes to arm yourself and lie
And so I scream, “Mayday, I’m in trouble, send somebody on the double.”
Scratching at the floor inside my mind
They all accept the lie
So bury what you are outside
Brother, please don’t be afraid of…
I know you’re tortured within
Your eyes look hungry again
But I’ll never wander, my friend
I let you down
And I started to run
Never meant to be your pain
Oh my God, what have I become?
Show me and show me the way back
Show me the way back home
I know you’re tortured within
Your eyes look hungry again
But I’ll never wander, my friend
No, I’ll never wander again
This is not what I want
This is not what I need
Can I just have one more taste
Just to make it through the day
You’re tangled in
You’re tangled in the great escape
I never meant to hurt nobody
I never meant to hurt you
I only meant to do this to myself
Great escape
Let me out of this
