lyrics

you don't cry anymore
you don't even bleed
before your heart dries up
you need a release

when your eyes have forgotten how to cry
and your ears only hear the destructive words
you're unable to develop the big picture in your head
when the pretty people tell you how to feel
you concede the fight before it has begun
you sacrifice your argumentative nature
you no longer hold your head up high with pride
when there is no cause worth fighting for

your grass has turned to straw, it's getting withered
you can't even feel the blisters on your feet
you're sly of heart, choking on your schemes
your pail of water's floating into steam

as you collapse, you say you're not the answer
but you don't believe the words you speak
you're hollowed out, a hole in home to foster
the love of yourself you put to sleep
