lyrics

Dimly Lit

I feel like a poet, maybe I should write
I feel like a failure, maybe I should dive into the deep end of the pool, would that strike a tone of urgency and fix me and you?

Autumn has passed, then winter, then spring
I heard summer was quite lovely, but it felt dead to me. The warmth of the rays sunk into my gaze, it must have rendered me blind

All I could see were shadows mimicking reality,
I couldn't see through to the outside
The outside of my misery

There's a light that never goes out deep inside of my brain, it buzzes so brightly illuminating the painful corners of memories that cannot seem to fade. Retracing the days, I guess progress was made- only after all the dues were paid
That light still haunts me, I guess it's here to stay

I feel like an actor, maybe I should cry,
I feel like a bird, maybe I'll fly high and disappear into the dark horizon of forgotten years...

With those looks of yours, like a devilish saint
Am I only here to entertain?
Then I guess I'll be on my way,
don't even bother asking me why I'm leaving

Oh, I am just a puppet starring in my own show
Somehow I have no choice but to play this terrible role

-

I have done this all wrong
I haven't searched for the switch
And if I could get my hands on it
I'd be so relieved if I did
