Album: Anthem For The Outcast
Verse 1
Lie awake, count my sins on the ceiling
Hear the whisper of lies Im believing now
The curtains coming down
All the shame, everything Ive been hiding
Like a knife on my neck, keeping quiet so
No one can ever know
PRE
Theres a nightmare on either side of sleep
Can you hear me?
Chorus (6 4 1 3 4 1 5 3)
Oh God I need you now
Im drowning in this ocean
Pulled down by the waves
Choking on emotion
Oh God I need you now
This sea is like a prison
I cant see past the tide
I dont know if youre listening
If I can not escape this agony (misery/suffering/anxiety)
Its going to kill me
Its going to kill me
Verse 2
Try to fight, try to fracture the cycle
Every day choosing death or denial now
Im sick of losing out
Cant replace all the life thats been stolen
Cant relive all the thrown away moments so
Im clinging onto hope
PRE
Theres a breakdown on either side of peace
Can you see me?
Bridge/PRE
Theres a gravestone on either side of me
Will I wake up from this death dream?
