As I wipe the sleep from my eyes, and pick myself up off the floor I look around and realize I’ve never seen this place before. And I stumble across the room, my legs will barely move I make it to the mirror and the man looking back at me…who the hell is he? Now imagine my dismay, as i hear a voice behind me say oh baby oh baby you ain’t looking so good, are you feeling ok? I reckon I displayed quite the look on my face cause it exposed me, and she knew right away oh she knew, that I had no clue. Oh you don’t know who are or where you’ve been You probably can’t remember my name right now, oh can you darling? Cant you look back and see all the fortune you’ve achieved Or can’t you recall all the times you did fall and succumb to sin And i stumble across the room, my legs will barely move. I make it to the door but her voice is calling out to me…who the hell is she. If I see the judgment day, when the air fills with ash and dust, Ill gladly choke on your memory as my body turns to rust.

There they sit onto their ostentatious thrones mocking the enslaved masses of deluded sheep but don’t you worry none hun, for there are more wolves among us than you’d think There they sit onto their comfy little thrones mocking the enslaved masses of deluded sheep but don’t you worry none hun for there are more wolves among us than you’d think I said don’t you fear my dear, don’t you fret your pretty little head for the sun will soon rise again sound the horn light the fire shine the light for the pack will rise from their dens tonight oh its gonna get fucking ugly, its not gonna be pretty at all I am telling you that we are not all just helpless sheep If theres a beast inside you then get off your feet don’t you worry none hun, don’t you fret your pretty little head the sun will rise again don’t you fear my dear don’t you fret your pretty little head they will all soon be dead and if theres a beast inside you then come stand next to me and we will show them all that we are not just helpless sheep that there are more wolves here than you think.

You can’t know how happy it makes me just to see your smiling face. Thats why it hurts so bad to say that i have to leave this place. Oh I just wanted to hold on so badly, but it just slipped right through the cracks. There’s so much more of them lately, they climb up through the walls and break right through the ceiling. And even though it tears apart my heart to leave you standing here, to see those perfect eyes oh so filled with fear. Im in a dark dark place where the shadows move, I can not stay here for long, we will have to say our goodbyes soon. I fear that they are close to breaking through, there is nothing more that I can do. Im so sorry. Logically none of this makes any sense at all. Mentally Im on the fence, I hope I don’t fall. My dreams and what you call reality, they are the same thing to me. And the messed up part is that I know it, but i can’t stop it. No i can not stop it. Im trapped wandering around in my head, its been days since i lift my bed. I just wanna run as far and as fast as i can away from here. These insatiable voices sound so familiar. Like those bird that used to perch outside our window and sing, such pretty little things. They would chip and chip, persistently so annoying. Lulling you from the gentle arms of a dream that you thought you knew. I just wanted to hold on so badly but it just slipped right through the cracks. There’s so much more of them lately, they climb up through the walls and break right through the ceiling. And even though it tears apart my heart to leave you standing here, to see those perfect eyes oh so filled with fear. If i could oh you know how i would love to stay right here with you, but the birds have stopped chirping now theres foot steps approaching, Oh they will be here soon. Lulling you from the arms of dream oh that you thought you knew. The birds have stopped chirping now theres footsteps approaching, Oh they will be here soon. Lulling you from the gentle arms of a dream you thought you knew.

So please don’t play the victim, you’ve already used me to feign your innocence And made me into the villain that i never wanted to be So take everything from me, and bury it way down behind that beautiful facade back where no one else will ever think to look, and find the deceit that lies beneath So please don’t play the victim I’m already the villain that i never wanted to be So tell me, oh tell me, who is the hero in this story? You throw your hands up in the air like a little child saying i swear i swear it wasn’t me But i can tell that you’re lying right through your teeth what secrets do you keep oh what secrets do you keep? Im not saying that you should be innocent Im just asking for you to be honest with me And tell me oh tell me who is the hero in this story? Im not saying that you should be innocent Im just asking for you to be honest with me. Take everything from me and bury it way down behind that beautiful facade back where no one else will ever think to look and find the deceit that lies beneath oh what secrets do you keep?

Can't you hear the whispers in the wind they are saying your name over and over again but bellow in the dirt lie the bones of those who have already fallen they say that beneath the ground we all must stay from dust to dust they say that the grass is always greener on the other side well i say the moon looks just fine why do i have to live with my feet on the ground I’m much more comfortable with my head in the clouds where i can finally be free and make up for all the times that i just couldn’t see I’m so sick of this darkness and this mind numbing silence I’m so sick of this darkness and this mind numbing silence I’m sick of it We have eyes that can’t see what is staring us right in the face we have ears that can’t even hear the ticking of the clock and our hearts yeah our hearts they can’t even carry a beat beat beat beat and our souls oh our souls they are so far lost out at sea watch as the waves come crashing over me be mindful of the sharks for they have smelled the blood and have come to nip at your feet yeah we were built like the angels, yeah we were made to fly but we clipped our wings for fear of falling out of the sky we are all still chained to our greed our fear and our pain but i think its time that we finally break free of these chains and learn to fly again break free break free of these chains and learn how to fly again.
