lyrics

Lately every night's been the same
It's turning into me playing a game
And tonight is it hide and seek
Maybe this time I'll hide and you won't find me

And I know
Everything in this world will change
Something dies when we try to keep things the same
And I know
Over and over we try to change the rules of this game
But in vain

No matter what you always find me
And I fall from the crush of your burden
I close my eyes to lose you
But I find comfort in the lure of permanent darkness

And I know...

There comes a day someone will say
Hey man what's wrong with you
This world is moving on with-
Without me
Do you think I want to be right here
With all this fear
And all this pain
Coming down like rain

I hear the children next door, they wake me
But I won't leave this place of shelter
Like a swarm of angry bees
My thoughts invade me
A good friend of mine calls it a firestorm
And it's burning my mind

And I know...
