The Sound of Myself - Disasterpeace

Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains within the sound of silence In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night and touched the sound of silence And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dared disturb the sound of silence "Fools", said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops fell And echoed in the wells of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made And the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming and the sign said The words of the prophets are written On the subway walls and tenement halls And whispered in the sounds of silence

Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence In restless dreams, I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dare Disturb the sound of silence Fools said I you do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you But my words like silent raindrops fell And echoed in the wells of silence

Came into this world alone And I'll leave on my own terms Don't mean to feel sad Don't mean to feel shit But I am and it's hard to admit I'm not a man I got fears Maybe I'll live 10 more years? I'll make no plans No promises I'm not the kinda guy you should miss I got a winning hand but I'll fold I'll never live till I'm old Don't belong I never have I never achieved any plans I hate myself Hate what I am I hate the fact that I am sad I never asked to be born (How could I grow old like this so soon?) How things have changed now I am old and worn I'm not a man I got fears Maybe I'll live 5 more years? I'll make no plans No promises I'm not the kinda guy you should miss I got a winning hand but I'll fold I'll never live till I'm old Never asked to be born How things have changed now I am old and worn I don't recognise myself Have a got better with my mental health? I never asked to be born How things have changed now I'm old and worn Don't recognise myself Maybe I'm better? Maybe I'm better? I'm now a man I got fears Don't wanna live another god damn fucking year I'll make no plans No promises I'm not the kind of guy you should miss I got a loosing hand but I'll play Please don't try and make me stay We only have this life So do the drugs you want to try If that's not your thing that's fine There are other ways to get your highs Take a chance of the other, girl or guy Study hard and fortify your mind Just do it fast cos the only thing you don't have Is time

I'm gonna work my way Out of this town. I'm gonna be someone. I know who I am. But right now, now! I don't think that I do. We could leave this place And fly far away. Let's escape this town. The streets and the cars and the crowds. Then into the clouds. Where nothing can stop us, Nothing forever. Where nothing can stop us, If we stick together. I might be dreaming but I think I believe. I might be seeing things That aren't quite real. But right now, now! I don't care if I do. I didn't mean those words That I said back then. I'm sorry! I will never ever Do that high again. I promise that I won't. Then nothing can stop us, Nothing forever. Nothing can stop us, If we stick together. Nothing can stop us, Nothing forever. Nothing can stop us, If we stick together. And now it's taking off. The journey begins! It's time to leave this place. The streets and the cars and the crowds. Then into the clouds. (To some place) far away, Forever ever. Stay the same. No never, never! Into to the sky. Then into the clouds. It's far away, Forever ever. Stay the same. No never, never! Into to the sky, Then into the clouds. Then nothing can stop us, Nothing forever. Nothing can stop us, If we stick together. And nothing can stop us, Nothing forever. Nothing can stop us, If we stick together.
