the lights are on but youre not home
youve drifted off somewhere alone
somewhere thats safe,
no questions here
a quiet place where you hide from your fears
sometimes when youre out of rope
the way to climb back ups unclear
the walls you build around yourself
i guess they also keep you here
are you afraid of what they think?
whoever "they" happen to be
or are you hiding from the scars of your own reality?
so you sedate and drown in vain
youve got a pill for every day
a suit and tie to mask the truth
its ugly head is starthing to show through
the monster youre feeding,
your lack of perception
the things that you do
to fullfill your addictions
the light at the end of your tunnel is closing
what is it that youre so afraid of exposing?
youd give it all up for whats theirs for the taking
whatever it takes to keep your hands from shaking
the same things youre thinking might make you feel better
the same things that probably get you here
