Quake

This one leaves me with a permanent stain

All over me

I can't take the way you look at me

Those eyes could never lie

The truth will find it's way out

In time I'll pour it out

Until then I'll keep you inside my head



Take a look at what's beneath your feet

Flowers that once made you smile have turned to stone

Now they're grinding down your teeth

Walls around your mind can't keep you safe

Build them up with steel and stone

And watch your soul escape



Get through today

And know that you are secure

Get a grasp on the fact that this is what you're here for

You can quake at the thought of it

Shakes you up quite a bit

And all you do is think

And thinking gets you nowhere



Just wait for clarity

You say this will all make sense

Just stay here with me

I can't take the way you look at me

Control I have lost

There's no sense in clawing myself out

I know you can't live without

Taking all that's left inside my head



Take a look at what's beneath your feet

Flowers that once made you smile have turned to stone

Now they're grinding down your teeth

Walls around your mind can't keep you safe

Build them up with steel and stone

And watch your soul escape away
