Drain

[Verse 1] I wear my thoughts like heavy chains Dragging slow through acid rain My mind’s a room with broken light Can’t tell the day apart from night [Pre-Chorus] Like a book with missing lines I lose myself between the signs [New Chorus – Version 4] Drain the color from my mind Leave the static, leave me blind Wrap me up in quiet haze Let me drift for days and days [Verse 2] I’m a song without a chord Unheard, undone, ignored Time’s a wheel that grinds me thin Spinning out, can’t start again [Pre-Chorus] Like a maze without an end I chase a peace I can’t defend [Chorus – Repeat] Drain the color from my mind Leave the static, leave me blind Wrap me up in quiet haze Let me drift for days and days [Bridge] I tried to feel, I tried to mend But every start becomes pretend Hope’s a mask I used to wear Now I’m hollow, cold, and bare [Final Chorus – Variant] Turn the light to something dull Make the silence permanent Float me out past where I bend Let it break but never end [Outro] Just a shell with no more sound Fade me slow, don’t turn around
