lyrics

My common sense is locked away
Far away from my thoughts and sins
Hopeless, abandoned. No sign, no key.
I see everyone else, but no one sees me
I'll survive the only way I know how
Clouding my conscience. Clouding my soul
With every step I'll sink deeper
The sand is near. Wake up the sleeper

Breaking the cycle. Breaking the line
Breaking the cycle. Breaking the line
The pattern is strong but there is a light
I have to commit. It's all in my mind

I found a spot where I can look down
Contemplate my thoughts and my sins
Every second feels like forever
drifting away from a my accomplishments
With every step I'll sink deeper
The sand is near. Wake up the sleeper

Breaking the cycle. Breaking the line
Breaking the cycle. Breaking the line
The pattern is strong with no cracks to find
The story continues by telling more lies
The pattern is strong but there is a light
I have to commit. It's all in my mind

Your words fill the pages, the shelves of my mind
With every new book I'll try to survive
The room is filled with darkness
The shadow grows fast
I'm afraid the good thoughts won't last
The ink slowly spreads, turns the pages black
Can I hold on for how long it will last
Your words still get louder. Highlight every sin
A second is all it takes to cave in

My head fucking hurts by every page turned
You say you'll help but it's my lesson to learn
Breaking the cycle. Breaking the line
Step by step. Taking control of my life
So I'll burn every book that is in the way
Of feeling numb, of feeling no pain
I have to believe that when you're gone. The shadow will hide
And I'll be fine

Get out of my mind
Get out of my mind
Get out of my mind
Just leave it. Let me leave and face it
Get out of my mind
