lyrics

My blackest days, spent in isolation
Lying to myself, beyond all disbelief
Too strung on doubt
Despair comes rushing in, surrounds me on every side
Without a single flame to scatter all the shadows in my mind

The air is thick in my lungs and it seems that
It turns to lead every breath that I breathe in
No one can shoulder this burden I carry
The gravity keeps on crushing me, crushing me down

And everything seems to fall
To silence's deafening call
I can't feel anything at all, at all

Time stands still my heartbeat slows
I lose my grip and sink below
Nothing else can make this right
Bring me back when I flatline

My blackest days, spent in isolation
Lying to myself, beyond all disbelief
Too strung out on doubt
The world is growing dim and it blurs before my eyes
Just light a single flame to scatter all the shadows by my side, my side

Time stands still my heartbeat slows
I lose my grip and sink below
Nothing else can make this right
Bring me back when I flatline
