Seems as though I've spent my whole life waiting for the moment
it all falls into place
And the thousand things I've tried always end up asking why
I'm just drifting in space
Blind to the consequences
of the chances I'm taking
But life's not that simple
it just has a way
of sneaking up behind
and filling you with lies

It's time to face the fact that all the things I've ever wanted
Will fade and end up black
It's no surprise that I can't cope with what it is I see
between the mirror cracks
Scratch the surface of my life
And strip away my sanity
Behind disappointments
heaped so high
to hold me tethered tight
and keep me from the light

take me away from this place can't you hear me calling
are you so sure that in your haste you couldn't see me falling
I blindly grasp for you when you're not there to see
ashamed of my predicament and growing sense of need
aim to break my isolation I can't break my isolation
You're not in my isolation, for my isolation's me


Steal away from cold sobriety to a place that no one sees
freedom taints my breath
It's high time I realised that life is far to short
To waste in dreams of death
Why can't I come to my senses
of my self imposed seclusion
open my eyes
to harsh reality
and find the chains that bind
exist only in my mind
