Why just bother staring straight into the sun
When you can hide in the fog and get nothing done?
I hate to break this to you
But I just can't watch what you're going through
You are
Opening a window to close a whole door
Deluded by the concept of control and begging for more
The skyline is singing a sweet, sweet elegy
For people like you who have become their own enemy
Make way for new urges
An itch beneath the skin
A substance that purges
A new need from within
A feeling emerges
To mute the whispering
Dust and ashes on those heads
Already sleeping in their deathbeds
So you're more open
And do better thinking?
You think you are soaring
When I can see you're sinking
Buried in your backyards
And hidden in your drawers
Messed up, pathetic
With a lack of remourse
Count your blessings
And hold them tight
'Cause you're bound to lose
If you stay in the bite
I'm not asking for much
Please just be distant
You have succesfully proven
That you are not resistant
No you are not resistant
So for once just shut up and listen:
One time's too many
A million times is not enough
Chasing the candle
That makes men a moth
Get out of the bite
You're risking your vision, you're risking your sight
Get out of the bite
I can see the angst that you're trying to hide
You're not missing out
When you're not giving in
You'll find yourself
Knee deep in peril
And on those knees
You'll be blaming the devil
You'll find yourself
Face down in the dirt
Blaming those folks
You have hurt
