Lyrics:
I go back to sleep,
back to cities burning in the east.
Twisted, their foundations.
Bricks start to shatter, windows caving in.
The broken window is a truthful mirror.
And the city's going under,
must be something in the water.
Stayed for years in that place,
and the trees grew up over my face.
People staring, but just knowing isn't caring.
Feel like I could have done more,
the city lies in rubble on the ocean floor.
There was silence in the hotel,
that's when she blew out the candle.
I know why you hurt so hard,
feel it all coming loose and it takes so much just to get by.
Oh boy, she's putting her bullets in, she's tying your noose,
tying your noose, you need a fresh set of eyes.
So you cut off your own head,
submissive and sorry and
hide into your heart
taking comfort in ignorance,
shutting out your mind.
You thought you were happy but no,
those dreams weren't real,
and it's most unexplainable.
