VERSE 2:
   This world wants to drown me with
The things it's thinking of
   So now I don't want to see or breathe
In this place that cannot love

   And I would rather lose my life
Than to ever, ever lose my mind
   But in this world, in this land
It's our thoughts that we cannot find

   So you see me run away
And you wonder why I am scared
   Well, I just can't help but think about
the  things of which we're not aware
