On my own

[Verse 1] I feel better when the world doesn't know me. Rushing lights to pass as there's little to see. (Nothing to see) Repeating faces waiting to be free. A tidbit of news wears the listener down. Falsify the truth to better the sound. [Verse 2] It's not fair, nothings happening. Looking around, deafening sound, Melancholic sights. Sickening heights. It's maddening, all it's doing is damaging.. I'm there, left to despair, with only a half said dare, pointless prayer. [Chorus] I will wait alone, hiding from what's known. (Unknown) Away from the dead. Running from the dread. (Nothing said) I offer the urge with hands aplenty It bleeds away to arrive empty (empty). No..there's nothing there.. [Verse 3] Time passes it away, yet here is where I'll stay. I can see all above me. Not so below. It's just a painful show. I'm tired of looking for what's coming.. Tired of reacting to the running. Cling to a vapid idea, that somehow they'll be here.. knowing skeletons are near. I'm scared I'll break apart... yet I'll keep stepping, feeling it's a start. [Chorus] I will wait alone, hiding from what’s known. Away from the dead. Running from the dread. (Nothing said) I offer the urge with hands aplenty It bleeds away to arrive empty.. (Ahh) [Chorus] I will wait alone, hiding from what’s known. (pretend to know) Away from the dead. Running from the dread. (Nothing said) I offer the urge with hands aplenty It bleeds away to arrive empty (empty). No..there’s nothing there.. Time passes it away, yet here is where I’ll stay. I can see all above me. Not so below. It’s just a painful show. I’m tired of looking for what’s coming.. Tired of reacting to the running. Cling to a vapid idea, that somehow they’ll be here.. knowing skeletons are near. I’m scared I’ll break apart... yet I’ll keep stepping, feeling it’s a start.. (To arrive empty) [Verse 4] Layer the sounds, sing the rounds Double, triple the message. Left with the wreckage. What’s fair? In a rigged affair? A controlled game, forever the same. A fruitless endeavour as we try to sever.. our selves.. rip away our eyes, stop feasting on their lies. Turn away to lay..down.down down. Numb the mind as we drown.drown.drown.. I will wait alone, hiding from what’s known. (Unknown) Away from the dead. Running from the dread. (Nothing said) I offer the urge with hands aplenty It bleeds away to arrive empty (empty). No..there’s nothing there..
