Listen Close

listen close: im in love with you

Listen close, I won't scream for no one These wretched streets Choke the unspoken words in my throat

Distant memories hit the surface, Only painful echoes now. Lights flare and spin , burn these aching eyes My heart's crushed. No suprise.

Broken bottles line these streets Silence and hatred are my new best friends But i guess you're the same We all are these days

The news is filled with murders and wars Day after day, Another half lived life Fades away

Lies scrawled all over the walls Have become my only hope The truth's hard to find, When no one knows what it is

Are we destined to fail? Insanity, pressure and fear Have become all we know Tell me, tell me there's more

So you think you're different? From all the clones? You'll tell yourself you are Till the day you die

Are we even alive? We drift through life without a smile Always too busy For love or respect.

Put on a brave face With each passing day When we all know inside We'd sell our souls, to hear someone say:
