That Was Just Your Life |
| Like a siren in my head that always threatens to repeat |
| Like a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver’s seat |
| Like a face that learns to speak |
| When all it knew was how to bite |
| Like a misery that keeps me focused though I’ve gone astray |
| Like an endless nightmare that I must awaken from each day |
| Like conviction |
| A premonition |
| Not worthy of, so I deny… I deny |
| I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place |
| I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace |
| I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by |
| I open just in time to say goodbye |
| Almost like your life |
| Almost like your endless fight |
| Curse the day is long |
| Realize you don’t belong |
| Disconnect somehow |
| Never stop the bleeding now |
| Almost like your fight |
| And there it went |
| Almost like your life |
| Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think |
| Like a raging river drowning when I only need a drink |
| Like a poison that I swallow but I want the world to die |
| Like a release from prison that I didn’t know I was in |
| Like a fight to live the past I prayed to leave |
| From way back then |
| Like a general without a mission |
| Until the war will start again… start again |
| I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place |
| I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace |
| I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by |
| I open just in time to say goodbye |
| Almost like your life |
| Almost like your endless fight |
| Curse the day is long |
| Realize you don’t belong |
| Disconnect somehow |
| Never stop the bleeding now |
| Almost like your fight |
| And there it went |
| Almost like your life |
| Like a touch from hell to feel how hot |
| That it can get if you get caught |
| Like a strike from heaven turns that key |
| And brings you straight down to your knees |
| Like a touch from hell to feel how hot |
| That it can get if I get caught |
| Like a strike from heaven to reprieve |
| That brings you straight down to your knees |
| Almost like your life |
| Almost like your endless fight |
| Curse the day is long |
| Realize you don’t belong |
| Disconnect somehow |
| Never stop the bleeding now |
| Almost like your fight |
| And there it went |
| Almost like your life |
| That was just your life |
