lyrics

Waiting at the window
Cloud it with my warm breath
Watching for the headlights
But they won't ever come
What blind and voiceless sorrow
Holds me in this state
When was I forsaken to this dark place

Shadows all around me
They feed on my neuroses
Chatter in the dark hours
Insidious and haunting

No man is an island
But mine is not the mainland
I grew up on the wayside
That's where the shadows dwell
Raised in isolation
Bathed in Cortisol
I was bound from day one to be unhappy

Neurotic little angel
I fed you like a parasite
Now you block the sunlight
The shadows are as one

You can turn around and walk away
But you'll circle back around again
You can turn your back on anything
But it circles back around again

I broke my mirrors and I cut myself
Scrawled words so bitter in my book of flesh
I took an existential ache
And made a Colossus
