Lyrics Raw - Assemblage 23

Raw

Raw
Unsheltered and exposed
When every door is closed
There’s nowhere left to find protection
Now
All that I have left
Is this brutal, wreckless depth
I’m running scared with no direction
Dark
The only thing that’s real
It’s all that I can feel
And every single nerve is screaming
Wait
For sleep that never comes
My imagination runs
Out of reach and it has left me bleeding
When reality returns
And I’ve finally broken free
I’ll stand up and face the world
That once abandoned me
The flow
Of panic in my veins
Anxiety constrains
Every move and I am slowly sinking
Down
To depths I’ve never reached
My security’s been breached
A victim of my way of thinking
When reality returns
And I’ve finally broken free
I’ll stand up and face the world
That once abandoned me
Bleak
A desert without rain
I’m a prisoner of pain
A disciple of my own disaster
Still
This silent symphony
Serenades the barren sea
Calling out as if it somehow matters
When reality returns
And I’ve finally broken free
I’ll stand up and face the world
That once abandoned me
