lyrics

waking up without a brain cell left
in my head
every memory lost with every second
so i breathe in
”who the fuck are you to call me wrong?”
i'm not the one
lying half dead
with a liver filled with the disappointments
each night brings
so i breathe out

every heartbeat is a revolution
in this imprisoned body
”all you have to do is say no”
so i breathe in
pick up the pieces of the shattered dream of us and
i'm not leaving this room alone
so breathe out

leave the lights on so you'll dry your eyes out
from watching every spark between us fade
when there's nothing left

keep breathing in// keep breathing out//
keep repeating - until you're speaking in tongues

day one: i'm not dying alone, i'm finding a way out – no matter the price
day two: what is lost cannot be found, what is dead cannot be saved
day three: everything for some intimacy, but i'm still running away from closure
day four: i'm stuck in her choking caress, lost in translation
and i keep living the same day
day five: what is a man without a conscience? a hollow lie, just a hollow lie
day six: even though this is the beginning of a panic attack eighty years strong it feels like it's neverending
day seven – eight – nine – ten: i'm fucking sick of being like them, this is enough

we're living in circles,
i'm not saying farewell until it's the truth
and all you do is talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
the silence is bliss for once
break loose from this life stuck on repeat
”who the fuck are you to call me wrong?”

we're living in circles
we're living in circles
