Welcome to my mind =) ———————————————🖤🤍 [Intro] Left... right... Left... right... [Verse] Step step step, step through the same old thoughts again Heel heel heel heel; hammering the earth again Road road road road; stretching farther than the eye Keep your head up, keep in time Ten, twelve, eight, six; count the trees you're passing by Noon, dusk, night, dawn; same dead colors in the sky Blur blur blur blur; every human looks the same Oh I do remember names Don’t! Don’t! Don’t! Don’t watch the clock just count the ticks His face will stay inside your skull His heart is pumping in your chest And beats until there's nothing left Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk! Till the bones are free from pain Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk! Till the blood is clean again Left right left right Hear the clock inside your head There is no silence anymore There is only that sound Tick tick tick tick; every round and every breath One two three four; every pig now smells like death Tock tock tock tock; it now knocks during the day You can feel this throbbing rage Step. Step. Step. Step; Walk the rage out of your head Fast! Fast! Fast! Fast, move your feet like thoughts, no rest Face face face face; Is it really all you own? Still, the clock will carry on... [Build-Up] Think! Think! Think of a river, think of rain Think of anything but footsteps But every thought becomes a knife Till every thought sounds the same Try try try, try to tear it from my brain Try to drown it, try to lose it Oh! My! God! Keep me from goin' lunatic! [Break] Left... right... Left... right... Keep me awake Keep me alive Keep that rhythm Out of my mind [Verse] Run! Run! Run! Run! Till the bones are free from pain Run! Run! Run! Run! Till the blood is clean again Left right left right Hear the clock inside your head There is no silence anymore There is only that sound Left foot Right foot No sleep White noise Dry tongue Dead eyes Same road Same sky Left foot Right foot Don’t stop Don’t think [Outro] One tick One tick One tick One tick It starts ... all over ... again. ———————————————🖤🤍 *inspired by the poem "Boots" from Rudyard Kipling (1903)
