lyrics

Hold me back
Oh I can’t keep
My intelligence
Thoughts hidden

Lock me away
Or someone may just listen
But I have don’t have the fight
The eternal vision

And when you look into their eyes
Don’t pretend it’s no surprise
Their flesh forever sighs
Too numb for the first time
They have never forgiven

Hold me back
Oh I can’t keep
My thoughts of you
Imprisonend

My mouth is a trick
Born to stumble and seek other's lips
But how can one feel so free
When the rest don’t get to live?

Is anyone feeling the same?
Can we meet where thoughts exchange?
Don’t be scared we may think the same
It’s so rare and it can still be changed
They have never forgiven

You’ve seen art, so have I
Did you think it was made with you in mind?
Bored with always being right
Killed by the sun, dead at night
Dead at night
