[INTRO – Ambient Noise / Clock Ticking / Piano] tick… tick… tick… (female whisper) “Are you awake?” (male whisper) “I never left.” [VERSE 1 – Soft Dark Vocal] Drifting away every night To a place where we still live A world buried inside our heads Created from what we miss Sleeping while awake Lost behind these eyes Some call this a gift But gifts aren’t supposed to ruin lives [PRE-CHORUS – Strings Build] Every turn of the clock Every hour crawling by The body keeps breathing While the mind refuses to die [CHORUS – Huge Emotional Vocals] I’m functioning on a heartbeat Running on borrowed time Searching for silence I was never meant to find Numb but I feel everything Awake inside this dream There are moths inside my mind… Eating away at me [VERSE 2 – Dark Nu Metal Flow] Seeing But I don’t understand Hearing voices But not listening again Searching for somewhere I can finally disappear Another place to drift away But I always wake up here [BRIDGE – Female Vocal / Creepy Piano] (female) “Close your eyes…” (male) “I forgot how.” (female) “Find your peace…” (male) “I lost it somehow.” [BREAKDOWN – Deep Growls / Chaos] THE CLOCK KEEPS SCREAMING THE WALLS KEEP BREATHING MY EYES ARE OPEN BUT I’M NOT SEEING RED EYES DEAD MIND COUNTING HOURS LOSING TIME [FINAL OUTRO – Almost Silent] (male whisper) “I’m so tired…” (pause) (female whisper) “Then rest…” (male) “I can’t.” tick… tick… tick…
