Sirens echo around the cold city
The grimy streets show no pity
Frosted lamps burn amber
Heartbeats pulse, mind wanders
Away, anywhere but here
Ashen face
Let me out of this place
All I dream of is death
All I dream of is falling
This life ever stalling
My shadow follows me wherever I go
Wrap it around like an icy cloak
Numb the feelings, numb the vision
Chemical suppression of past discretion
Don't ever think you've won
Cos that's when you're done
Your shadow will strike
You can't hide from the fight
It's part of you, always will be
Melded together, sings so sweetly
Like a hand run over a stubbled face
Morning brings pain, unbidden tears
Eat your cereal, choke back the fear
Tomorrow, tomorrow will be better
But tomorrow never comes
I've got a dream inside
Burns like fire and ice
Sweet choking tar
Pulsing scar
Like a supernova held in my chest
Let it out and put it to the test
I wanna be who I could be
Someone who used to be
Follow me and i'll set it free
Let's find another way to dream
Sick of suppressing this long held scream
