lyrics

What do you know about the dark ?
what do you know about living
with your eyes sewn shut ?
what do you know
besides the warmth of your bed
and all the comforts of home ?

What do you know about the pressure ?
of living in fear of any direction
and place to go
and i one tracked mind set on sorrow

Constantly in doubt of anything substancial

What do you know about
living with your eyes sewn shut ?

Slowly losing my will to stand on my own
slowly losing my will to try
to be more than just a false step of
a failure to the ones i love
more than just the dirt at your feet
to be complete

Well I reckon, my actions don't seem justified on any terms
not when it's based on your outlook of perfection
a world still stuck in a monochrome mess
lower expectations are surely for the best

Imperfect but no one deserves this

Eyes wide open, my heart's in my hand
disregard my fears, my fate's unplanned

I'm in a cavity you can't find
relentless thoughts on my mind
deep down inside i know
there's no examples of this to show

What do you know about the pressure ?
of living in fear of any direction
and place to go
and i one tracked mind set on sorrow

Slowly unravelling, hopelessly pulling strings

Slowly losing my will to
stand on my own two feet
slowly losing my will
slowly losing my will to try
