I start to search all the dark places that I have found
All the deep creases in my mind that are torn up somehow
I want to keep the pace
I want to figure it out
I've got to do it this way
If I don't everything's lost
Have you ever really noticed the blanket of shame
from the torment and pain
That you realise that no one's ever been there
Have you ever looked at the violence you hide
always running inside
You can't escape it's always been there
I tear a hole inside me head to let the demons go
I cut my flesh to purge the hatred from so long ago
I want to keep the pace
I want to figure it out
I've got to do it this way
If I don't everything's lost
Have you ever really noticed the blanket of shame
from the torment and pain
That you realise that no one's ever been there
Have you ever looked at the violence you hide
always running inside
You can't escape it's always been there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
I start to weep
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
All alone
All alone
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Close my eyes
I go to sleep
It's always there
Have you ever really noticed the blanket of shame
from the torment and pain
That you realise that no one's ever been there
Have you ever looked at the violence you hide
always running inside
