Paroles: Hidden In Plain View. Garden Statement.

The traffic's backed for miles
On these quiet suburban roads
While the rubber necking strangers
Are dying to see these victims wounds
Cause he's all alone
With his notebooks and poems
In this open grave where he wrote
All of his secrets
That became his lyrics
With no intent to show anyone

[Chorus:]
And we give, and we give
But it's all for nothing
Its all for nothing
We try to resist,
But I gave everything
And its all for nothing

So the panic sets and cycles
His mind for restless sleep
And while the blood-sucking leeches
Contaminate every line they read
Just leave him alone in this dark room(tightly wrapped cocoon)
This white sheet, his tightly wrapped cocoon

Cause its no secret
I fucking need this
Like I don't need anyone

[Chorus x2]

It's like I'm falling asleep with my eyes open
shutting down and off the lights
cause after all of this it's all or nothing
still I wouldn't try to ...

I've fallen asleep with my eyes open
(and you'll lie to all your friends)
(about sights you never saw)
Shutting down and off the lights
(and you'll preach to all the press)
(about what you don't know at all)
Cause after all of this it's all or nothing

Still I wouldn't try to fight

So let me drown so I can breathe again
I'm through choking and suffocating
On alter egos and alter motives
Which weigh you down and take control of
The way you are and the things that you need
The life you live and the dreams that you dream
Distort and blur all in slow motion
They broke you down and now your broken
(Spill the ink and spill your guts again)*16 times in the background*
And it's sadder than the saddest movie
I ever saw but without the beauty
So I stopped watching, I stopped caring
I've lost all interest and I stopped wearing
These plastic smiles, I've washed my hands clean
Forget that you forgot about me
And I'm living life, the big city feeling
It's better than suburban dreaming
Living off the friends that hate you
Talk shit on me like I don't know who
My real friends are anymore, no,
I dont know you anymore
And it's sadder than the saddest movie
I ever saw, but without the beauty
So I stopped watching, I stopped caring

Spill the ink and spill your guts again!

I've fallen asleep with my eyes open
(and you'll lie to all your friends)
(about sights you never saw)
Shutting down and off the lights
(and you'll preach to all the press)
(about what you don't know at all)
Cause after all of this it's all or nothing
Still I wouldn't try to fight
