Woah!
Hit the deck
Did you forget that I am still a wreck?
You must regret the effects of this re-occurring mess
So let's address this once and for all
Everything looks in order, there's a smile on every face
Could it be that the misery ran a mile from this place?
What if I've been accepted or has my mind just been erased
Trying to solve the mystery of the source of my distaste?
I've been so welcomed by this faction
But still I question the attraction from both sides
There's something on my mind that's really bugging me
Gradually it appears to me that all is not what it seems
I see my shadow from the fire on the wall
(Fire on the wall)
You hear the voice of reason will you heed it's call?
Steadily growing tired of repeating this boring game
Going through all the motions of indifference and blame
Detached but still invested in this dangerous house of cards
Pokerfaces reemerge and gradually I find myself taken into the fold
I've helped put this place on the map for all the wrong fucking reasons
Leaving to build a life but getting accused of treason
Is it unfair of me to not care if I please them?
Need to preserve my freedom, got to escape this
Prison, these invisible bars that reflect in her eyes
Will I leave this place alive?
I see my shadow from the fire on the wall
(Fire on the wall)
You hear the voice of reason will you heed its call?
Douse the flame gently for what's next remains unknown
(Remains unknown)
Once I saw shadows, now I see nothing at all
The smoke clears, a distant sun appears
Goodbyes won't seal the past behind me
Thrive!
My mind wonders what's over these walls
What could be worse than this life-draining hole?
Burn this town to the ground 'cause I know
That beyond this cage is a place I can go to rest
Am I crazy for what this place had made me?
Part of me wants to go back
Rose-tinted glasses on the eyes of the schizophrenic
Impostors suffocating life with their esoteric
Rose-tinted glasses on the eyes of the schizophrenic
Impostors suffocating life with their esoterical lies
Don't you realize your trust in me was worthless
You never had me from the start
But you don't mind and thats why
Ignorance is bliss, those stab wounds in the backs of all those naive souls
Who left their trust so blindly in your hands
(And again and again and again and again and again)
(And again and again and again and again and again)
(And again and again and again and again and again)
(And again and again and again and again and again)
My heart grows fonder like a toxic cyst
The longer I stay, the longer I don't exist
I can't stay tied to this apparatus awaiting the plague to catch
So paint a cross on the door behind us as we're never coming back!
Don't you realize your trust in me was worthless
You never had me from the start
But you don't mind and thats why
Ignorance is bliss, those stab wounds in the backs of all those naive souls
Who left their trust so blindly in your hands
(Don't you realize your trust in me was worthless)
(Don't you realize!)
