Lyrics
the world seems numb today and the smile has left her face again pinch a little harder pinch until it bleeds
maybe rolling up your sleeves ain't the best way to go through life; won't you tell me, does the crowd make you lonely when you're standing in the middle of the room?
Move on your wasting your time searching high and low for inspiration; in case you didn't know, hurt doesn't stop until you grow
when time is the only pill worth swallowing and the space that you see has no stars; and the filament of hope dims by the hour you just sit and wait. you search for definition when it don't work out on paper, found guilty by the court of hearts. do you bend do you break do you run or do you stay? the pain only dulls after mistakes.
