lyrics

I’m breaking up
All I see is static like my television screen
I don't understand it, I can’t take it
I'm breaking up
Can you see anything?
You know that if the dark could speak
It’d ask you how the hell do you sleep at night

And still we're breathing, but just barely, can you
Can you believe it? We have to fake it and now
We're being led by ignorance that disregards all consequence
We think we're free and that's how we know that we are fucked

I’ve seen what it’s like without you by my side
I refuse to live my life staring at the black and white
That veil of grey will try to make me lose my mind
Won’t let it cover my eyes and leave me colourblind

Are we still fighting, to keep our heads above ground?
We've stopped believing, that there's still hope to be found
When the time comes that we stand face to face with our deceit, will
We truly face it or simply turn the other cheek?

And at the count of three, I'll stop counting on you

We live our lives in black and white
We're living cold and out of sight
I can’t accept this state, I hope it’s not too late, I’ll overcome this fate
Creep a little closer to you

Take a look at me
Lifeless like a tree without roots to feed
I’ll reach you
Take a look at me
Lifeless like the sea without waves to lead you home
Take a look at me
Lifeless like a world without air to breathe
I’ll reach you
Take a look at me
Lifeless like a man without a heart to beat

But now I’m thinking
I’ve seen what it’s like without you by my side
I refuse to live my life staring at the black and white
That veil of grey will try to make me lose my mind
Won’t let it cover my eyes and leave me colourblind
