lyrics

I sit in here so quietly the sides start caving in
the world that sits outside of me is replaying again
there are silent images and songs with no instruments
all is quiet it's just me and the world again

at times I wish to share the space with Imaginary Friends
I scatter pieces of myself across every plot of land
another lonely and Tenderly handsome hand
Another secret held from man to man

it's just me and the silence again

no I am fine
I am divine
and it takes up so much of my time
my sorrow is my song
and my thoughts are my rhymes
these words have no reason to lie
Its nothing you can see with the human eye

I am a part
I am a piece
I am just a memory
an entity forever tethered to me
is it you or is it we

to sulk or to sing along
to cherish the melody of right and wrong
Inside of you there is a song
I follow my enemies
From death to life its in front of me
An answer that puts me on my knees
All i;ve ever wanted is to be freed

I am empty of a substance that is growing everywhere
I've no reason to fight and I have no purpose to care
the past a thousand years is mine to bear
a chaos like leather i wear

no really all is well
nothing's much different can't you tell
I've got a face that's been ready to sell
my body is my instrument
my carcass is my sentiment
there's really not much of a meaning to it
If you look directly at it it’s already split

I am alive
I am a jive
another dancer in the hive
no need to say hello or goodbye

there is an enemy that lives inside our minds
and he's eating Us Alive
