Grey matter all twisted and tangled
Like coarse wire wool grating at the very core of my scull

The deafening silence defeats me once again
Get out
Get out
Let me out

The fireball rages within
Deep, burning
No reprieve, no escape
Arms and hands reaching to the very core of me

I've sowed therefore I must reap

Then there is nothing left but the empty feeling
And deja vous in the crystal ball

The fire feeds on me
The fire feeds me
For without it I am nothing but an empty shell
It leaves me as an empty shell
A deep dark hole, consumed
Until tomorrow

Try to forget
Soothe the burns
Cover the scars
Fill the emptiness
Find the light
Absorb it into my soul

But there is no tomorrow
Only now
Dark follows light follows dark follows light
Sooner or later there'll be nothing left to burn

From the ashes I will rise
Free to float on clouds
To spread my wings and fly
But there are no clouds without heat
And no flying without the wind of change

Inside and outside
It's a lonely place to be
