Signals

Something else inside
You're not there

Replaced your eyes
With empty glass spheres

Crooked, hungry urge
Needs to feed

Countless empty words
Fail to mask the constant need

Promised it's alright
When you disappeared into the night

Long time ago
They slipped their fingers in

Now in dark corners
You still fear wickedness

Demons in your head
With no defenses

Those you leave behind
Always suffer the consequences

You tell me you wanna run
Wanna free yourself from pain
But the demons haunting you
Hold you in this place
Glimpses of who you might be
Revealed through the haze
Contrast stark reality
Signals sent by the smoke of a life ablaze

Searching to find
Something to hold
A place to hide
In a world so cold
Looking for a way to survive
A way to survive
A way to survive
The weight of your life

You tell me you wanna run
Wanna free yourself from pain
But the demons haunting you
Hold you in this place
Glimpses of who you might be
Revealed through the haze
Contrast stark reality
Signals sent by the smoke of a life ablaze
