lyrics

So I build it up, built it up on myself
When everything goes wrong I put my faith in the white noise
Distorted lines rise against my walls
And the pressure builds
Until I cannot hear at all
Until I cannot hear at all

So I just I just hide in the darkness of my room
Blocking out every moment
Every moment that comes too soon

I build it up like a castle, my fortress, my keep
To hold in every whimper and weep that I let slip
From the pride that I refuse to swallow
Is this a path that I am doomed to follow?

So I just I just hide in the darkness of my room
Blocking out every moment
Every moment that comes too soon

And I realise
I am better off
Alive on the inside
And with each waking breath
I lose hold of this rope around my neck
So I just lay here
With my head in my hands
Head in my hands

Silence the screams inside my head
(You're not good enough, you're not good enough)
Someone please, let me forget
(You're not good enough, you're not good enough)

Broken down into pieces of what it is
What you feel is emotion paralysis
Cold heart, cold skin on cold bones
The corpse of a dead soul
Trying to find home

But what is home to the mind in a mad life?
Hiding from the blackness of a black knife
Trying to take control the only way you know
Will let you forget and finally let go

And I realise
I am better off
Alive on the inside
And with each waking breath
I lose hold of this rope around my neck
So I just lay here
With my head in my hands
Head in my hands (Head in my hands)
