Watching Yourself Slowly DisappearWe're born and we're raisedTo stand up tall and straight Then torn and reshaped At the people's gains Oh to be a real man Hangs heavy in your hands But you keep quiet, do the best you can To prove it to yourself, then everyone else When it seems like the only direction is down New shelter from the shame So you sit and drink away the pain [?] to reach you cannot place a name So you shoulder all the blame again and again And see yourself, this hollow shell This cold and wicked, cruel and wretched hell That you found but don't make a sound Now it seems like the only direction is down Hey you're upon the edge Where the bond breaks are beckoning The wind whips around your head But the silence is deafening If you call out, if you call out If you call out we'll be here And you can't help, and you can't help And you can't help the feeling when you're Watching yourself slowly disappear And you can't help the feeling You're watching yourself slowly disappear Hey you're upon the edge Where the bond breaks are beckoning The wind whips around your head But the silence is deafening If you call out, if you call out If you call out we'll be here And you can't help, and you can't help And you can't help the feeling when you're Watching yourself slowly disappear Watching yourself slowly disappear And you can't help the feeling You're watching yourself, watching yourself Watching yourself slowly disappear |
