Ten feet tall behind your wall Telling yourself that you're not small Roll yourself into a tight ball You can't be lost if you've gone AWOL You've never had one question So comfortable living life so certain Let me tell you about this then No one really knows the truth No, not you There are monsters in the sky There are demons in the sea I have seen them with my eyes I've seen what you won't see Pull the wool out from your eyes It won't shade your frail belief In the end we cannot hide There are other worlds than these Closed up minds are hearty seeds So plant yourself a gallows tree Bury your head so you won't see The truth you hide is the truth you seek Feed it fiction and lies Oh, how it grows The roots are all shallow Hide yourself up inside And on it goes Reaping from the cell you sow There are monsters in the sky There are demons in the sea I have seen them with my eyes I've seen what you won't see Pull the wool out from your eyes It won't shade your frail belief In the end we cannot hide There are other worlds than these Is it all an oddity? Are we flakes of empty dust Spinning on a ball of rust? Maybe But the light is ours to see You had eyes, but sowed them shut But that feeling in your gut won't fade Is it all a tragedy? Are we flashes in a rut Going in and out of luck? Maybe But the answers will not change Even when they're covered up All these questions in your gut Won't fade And there are monsters in the sky There are demons in the sea I have seen them with my eyes I've seen what you won't see Pull the wool out from your eyes It won't change your frail belief In the end we cannot hide There are other worlds than Worlds than these

My anxiety's clawing Out from deep within me It burns within as my throat begins to cauterize This negativity's leeching Any shred of composure Rationale has decayed and left me bound in madness I reach for calm I starve for a balance unknown This burden tortures me deep in my soul I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop Nor will it take away the pain I feel like this search is all in vain And I struggle to find my way How I yearn for the silence For an end to the voices The calamity grows and the deafness leads to disarray Guilt buries me alive In a coffin, criticized I shouldered the blame and dug this hole for me to lay in I reach for calm I starve for a balance unknown This burden tortures me deep in my soul I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop Nor will it take away the pain I feel like this search is all in vain And I struggle to find my way I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop Nor will it take away the pain I feel like this search has been all in vain And I struggle to find my way I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop Nor will it take away the pain I feel like this search is all in vain And I struggle to find my way I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop Nor will it take away the pain I feel like this search has been all in vain And I struggle to find my way
