Song Description

This song is about loss of the most destructive kind. So much so that it drives you insane and leaving you ask the question - what's left to live for??

Lyrics

Verse 1

They locked you up
You lost your mind
You searched for hope
Weeks at a time
You kept on breathing
but you wished life would end

Verse two

Your mood swung
Like a circus trapeze
Outside you looked straight
Inside you buckled at the knees
Your silent crying,
like a dog scratching for fleas

Chorus

Its like some-one has died
That's been close to you
Sometimes too close
For the world to believe
They take you to the bottom of the ocean,
To a time they can't hope to retrieve

Verse three

You hear the words
that are softly spoken
but you don't understand
What's been said
Its hard to find space and time
Lights in your head

Repeat chorus twice

Bridge/Finale

And what if thats all thats left
Disappointment and emptiness
And what if thats all you do
Do you try a little harder,
and step of the edge
And what if thats your best,
do you pack up your luggage
and head out west,
should you sleep with the lights on,
The darkness a cure
for the demon song.
