lyrics

the panic starts rushing through my veins,
struggling to feel free for once.
pull out my heartstrings and tie me down,
she still breathes from my lungs.

blackout, or am I blind?
another sleepless night.
i won't let go.

collapsing into a new dark void,
without any sense of control.
every night, running towards the red lights,
in hope of finding home again.

blackout, or am I blind?
another sleepless night.
we've lost all hope.

if this night never comes to an end,
and if everything I gave up meant nothing at all,
kill all the lights in this town, because I'm not waking up.

and silhouettes are dancing side by side in this mirrored room
even though I'm a million miles away from the curse that carries your name,
I will never be free.

you're an echo in every breath,
enslaved by structures built in your name.
and every pale memory is engraved within me,
and so I start running against the wall,
with death as my finish line

I could scream your name a thousand times
in the middle of the night, and it wouldn't change a single thing
yet I'm still waiting for this spark to ignite
and I'm nothing, until you say I am not.

And I'm nothing, until you say I am not.
And I'm nothing, until you say I am not.

without hope, there is no me.
without love, there is no us.
