Insomnia Might Be Preferable To This
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They took that subtle knife
Off of the pendulum
Tucked it in between your ribs right under the kidneys
You gasped for air
But you couldn’t make a sound
(Couldn’t make a sound)
And your mind is trying to find a door
A way to make it out
(A way to make it out)
So scream loud in the silence
Caught in the memories
Taking the vision for granted
And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare
Everything’s falling to pieces
So breathe deep and sleep
And like the wound from your side
Those tears come pouring out your eyes
And you feeling like your going insane
There’s got to be some kind of closure
Something you can do to stop the suffering
Something you can say
So scream loud in the silence
Caught in the memories
Taking the vision for granted
And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare
Everything’s falling to pieces
So breathe deep and sleep
Pull out from the dream
Take a deep breath
Cause this world aint as crazy as it seems
But keep this in mind
(Keep this in mind)
When you close your eyes
You’re only seconds away
So scream loud in the silence
Caught in the memories
Taking the vision for granted
And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare
Everything’s falling to pieces
So breathe deep and sleep
(Scream loud in the silence caught in the memories)
Just breathe deep and sleep
(Now that you’ve made it out of the nightmare)
