lyrics

I’m drawing patterns
On a scratched and dirty page
And I’ve been writing here for days
To keep my mind from going blank
I’m writing words down
To the songs you’ll never hear
‘Cause they will never leave my head
And I will stay here ‘till I’m dead

And I’ll just watch the walls ‘till then

I’m picking pieces
From the lives I could’ve lead
If I had gotten out of bed
Took a walk outside instead
I’m sewing stitches
And my eyes are going red
Trying to make something that’s real
That the hands of time will feel

Or frantic patterns on a page
No one’s listening
So I could just fade
Into the darkness
I think I’ll watch the walls ‘till then

I keep on hearing
All these sounds inside my ears
City noise and bitter tears
Which is wisdom, which is fear
I’m drawing patterns
but I’m not sure which are mine
Which have been here all along
Am I blind or am I dumb

I’m writing words down
Try to put my mind at ease
But the process never ends
I know these wounds will never mend
I’m pulling pieces
But they’ll never be enough
It all just crumbles in my hand
Turns to vapor, turns to sand

My words will turn to dust too
And No one’s watching
So then why do I give a fuck
What they want from me?
I should’ve never left my bed
I think I’ll watch the walls instead
