lyrics
Sitting by myself on the edge of an eruption
Knowing I can sometimes sing the words
I never could have spoken.
About the ways that I relate
And interact with the emotion
Of a day spent by myself
Just like an island in the ocean
Of my failures and my debts
I spit my teeth out and move on
To the unrelenting fact
That there are those now I belong to.
With my back against the wall
I search for something to hold onto
And my lips begin to sing,
Even though I told them not to...
At last my focus starts to go
And these dark pathways start eroding
But as they crumble back to dust
I lust for something you can't show me.
There are places on this earth I’m sure
Where people don't get lonely
Even though they're by themselves
And asking, "Do I even know me?"
Do I even have a dream?
Or is this something that I’ve chosen
To distract me from the pain
Of finding out I’m simply broken.
Now my backs against the wall
I reach for something to hold onto
And my lips begin to sing,
Even though I told them not to...
Now I'm lying on this bed on the edge of an eruption
Knowing sometimes, I will sing the words
I never should have spoken
'bout the ways that I relate
And interact with the emotion
Of a day spent by myself
Stuck on this island in the ocean
Of my failures to accept the fact
I really must move on
To the unrelenting pact
I've made "there're those now I belong to”
With my back against the wall
I reach for something to hold onto
And my lips begin to sing
Even though I told them not to...
