Scratch a message on the wall
Thirteen years ago
Watch it chip away and fade
Like time-lapse video
Shake you off
You pull me under
I feel like I am better off alone
Am I dreaming?
I can't bear the feeling
I'm not the only one out here
You live in the city
You are one of them
Scowled out through tired eyes
And trudge along cement
I live up in my head
I am on my own
The end of my existence
Is unknown
It's been ten years since I picked up
The things I left behind
I took the train as far as it can go
I get lost when I try
To shake you off
You pull me under
I feel like I am better off alone
Is it daylight?
Or can I sleep away
My life
I feel the inertia
You live in the city
You are one of them
Scowled out through tired eyes
And trudge along cement
I live up in my head
I am on my own
The end of my existence
Is all I've ever known
Chase me down
I feel like I could wake up any moment now
Block it out
But remember all you have to do is shout
It's time to wake up now
It's time to wake up now
