Straight Jacket

V6

[Intro] [Verse 1] The ceiling drips with faces made of feign Each one is wearing fragments of my pain Phantoms are beneath this mind that breaks Then all lights go black but I still remain awake [Verse 2] All looks sane behind a sheet of glass While I dissect each second as it pass Reality bends till nothing feels real Death is the metaphor unable to heal [Bridge] Split in two to watch, Crying pieces fight, Then lose the judgement, Who tells wrong from right [Chorus] Straight-Jackets pull me underneath the floor So low that I don't know myself anymore Curse the dawn for finding me awake Laugh in a craze for another lost fake Straight-Jackets strangle the thoughts I hide Keeping all the screaming locked inside Thrashing against cacophony like a beast While something in my skull starts to feast [After-Chorus] [Verse 3] This gore is chewing holes into my brind These memories ignite themselves in flame The dead inside me never learned to die They scratch behind my eyes and multiply [Verse 4] Somewhere underneath this ruined brain A voice keeps screaming through the rain Gazing at me drown inside a bloody sea Then disappear with all I failed to see [Bridge] Tighter — I feel the fabric crawl Tighter — I cannot move at all Tighter — let the silence start Tighter — around my restless heart [Chorus] Straight-Jackets pull me underneath the floor So low that I don't know myself anymore Curse the dawn for finding me awake Laugh in a craze for another lost fake Straight-Jackets strangle the thoughts I hide Keeping all the screaming locked inside Thrashing against cacophony like a beast While this self in my skull begins to feast [After-Chorus] [Ending]
