What is one to do when no one takes you by the hand This nervous condition / shadows play across the wall In certain lights I can see a different shade The pattern crawls / the pattern calls Why must I be the one that has to suffocate Why must I linger / every moment filled with Lies, remove the lies / lies, see the lies Beyond the lies / the truth is written in her face A formless figure / at the edge of vision Skulking, hiding / in this solemn, sleepy place A lurid orange / a sickly sulphur tint
Why must I stay / everything's a mystery Mental chains / every moment filled with Lies, remove the lies / lies, see the lies Behind the pattern the shapes grow clearer every day It's like a bad dream / she is standing on the road Shake the bars / shake it hard in the moonlight Yellow walls / soon I will break out Unblinking eyes / follow every move I make She advances´/ every moment filled with Lies, see through the lies / lies, see the lies Everything will be OK / every wall will decay
