[Intro - Instrumental] [Chorus] Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh [Verse 1] We chase misprinted lies We face the path of time And yet I fight, and yet I fight This battle all alone No one to cry to No place to call home [Chorus] Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh [Verse 2] My gift of self is raped My privacy is raked And yet I find, and yet I find Repeating in my head If I can't be my own I'd feel better dead [Chorus] Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh [Guitar solo - smooth, legato, emotional] [Verse 3] I drag these hollow days Through bone-deep empty space And still I sink, and still I sink Inside a mind that's torn A constant rupture burns In places never born [Bridge] No equilibrium comes Just echoes gnawing through The closer that I crawl to peace The faster it unglues If there’s a truth beneath It’s one I’ve never met A darkness I return to Because it’s all I get [Chorus] Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh Ooh-ooh Lyrics © Nancylayneco Llc, Pw 3 Ascap Songs, Concord Arch Songs, Concord Summit Copyrights
