lyrics

I´ve been waiting for the day
When this will fade away.
Every stumble could be the fall,
Another writing on sordid walls.
Ain´t past one rogue escort
That buries me in restless thought?
Will we ever see the day?

You radiate a sick, sick light.
I´ll yield more smoke to conceal the fire.
A shiver lies underneath,
A cold the warmth cannot defeat.
The things we´ll never be
Reflect on everything I see.
Will we ever find a way?

There´s a voice that stays with me in the back of my head
Till I disintegrate and I´m buried and dead.
Oh, I´m biting my nails until my fingers bleed
Yeah, I´m peeling my skin till I stop listening
Or there’s nothing left of me.

You go and dance your silent dance.
I´m over-eager, over-thinking,
Writing with both hands.

Till the earth corrodes beneath my feet.
I´m getting tired past a point where my light sleep cures the fatigue.
Still I wake, shaken and blind.
Aren’t we all looking for something we know we ain´t gonna find?
Yeah, is it me or a failure by design?

There´s a voice that stays with me in the back of my head
Till I disintegrate and I´m buried and dead.
Oh, I´m biting my nails until my fingers bleed.
Yeah, I´m peeling my skin cause I´m still listening
To the face that hums restless on the back of my skull.
It whispers at night and its rattling my pulse.
Pressing it in the pillow, I can still hear it say:
“Wreck what you´ve built,
Throw it all away.
Throw it all away.”
