lyrics

In a room of human loud. Rubbing shoulders with a crowd. Trigger silence seize the reign and engulf my skin in flames.
Time to shy, say goodbye. You're a fly. You never try. Back inside again, retreat, through the exit to the streets.
Shadows stalk my every step to ensure I don't forget, every moment of regret, I can't afford to pay this debt.
Kill the lights and lock the door, I can bare awake no more, nasty noises nag and gnaw, nag, and gnaw, nag and gnaw, nag, and gnaw...
There's no place where I belong
Well, I'm gone.
Tear a droplet from the grey. Swallowed whole beneath the waves. Fold along the beacon poor. Roar you've never seen the shore.
Sinking blue to blue to black. Jagged teeth devise attack. It's the nature of the beast, the circle 'round the squirming feast.
They're quick to tear apart, they're hungry for a happy heart, as they search the gory mist, they find that one does not exist.
Just an empty flesh and bone, made of balsa wood and stone. Is there anybody home? You're alone, you're alone, you're alone...
