Go, run away in distress

try to hide from whats 

creeping and crawling and stabbing within 

try to deny the turmoil inside

if you fight yourself hard enough 

you'll never win any ounce of serenity 

or a calm hope at best (or a calm hope at best) 

can leave you heaving on the floor 

gasping for breath, are you gasping for breath 

to be left on the floor gasping for breath 



Chorus:

no he's not the person you are

or the person your trying to be 

dont let the outside sway too far 

from where you want to be 



and at any cruel moments notice

you can ruin the best 

as your body is brutally pressed 

against the confines of your tense flesh

and if you close your eyes tight enough (none of the bad can get in)

and if you close your eyes tight enough (none of the light can get in)

the light cant get in (the light cant get in)



BOOM. you scream as the light hits you 

it radiates throughout your whole soul 

BOOM. the pain is clarity, it cleanses 

and if it still fucking hurts 

then you still fucking know, that you are still alive, 

that you are still in control, if you would only take hold

BOOM. the day with both hands, a death grip

and a good chance to outlive your past 

are you living free?



Chorus (x2)
