lyrics

These claustrophobic walls are caving in
The air is thin, the dust within
Consciously thinking about the escape
Harbored, my only desire
To venture out and to return to the prior
Red sky at morning, take warning
Red sky at morning, it’s pouring

The formality of my sanity is slowly slipping as I gasp for air.
Pill after pill I still feel afraid.
I can't understand how living this life could be unfair,
Please let this end!

I am still here
Please look at me, you can still see me, don’t let me fall down, Remember me
I am here, I am here, I am here, please remember me

As I fell in, the deepest of waters
What will I find? Who will I find?
How long will it take? How long do I have?
Desolate, abandoned, stranded at sea
Will these clouds ever leave? Will the rain ever cease?
Red sky at morning, take warning
Red sky at morning, it’s pouring

The reality of my atrophy is slowly setting as I try to move.
Day after day I wither away.
Take every step as if my progress could be assured,
Yet I've gone back.

These bone white pills
Why should I take?
It never stops the pain inside of me)
My head and body still ache
I see the door
Exit, nevermore
Will it stop the pain inside of me?
My head and body still ache

I pick myself up and I swear I won't go for another taste.
I'll leave this place behind,
The door beyond the bend.
