Introvert - Heavy Sighs Spoken Softly lyrics

They say I need to speak more, I need a better outlet. I've been digging through the thoughts so long my fingers became calloused. Lost the feeling in my palms so I reached towards the sky Hoping stars would burn the fingerprints left there those lonely nights. I couldn't reach. It was a strange sensation, When the lines in my hands became constellations. My skin's not think or rough, I'm not strong enough To confront the night but the moonshine helps me sober up. I've traveled down the same road kicking yellow bricks home Walking empty handed, pockets full of false hope. Stared at myself, he stared back at me Crossed his legs and asked, "Well what do you believe?" I said, "The sky that I'm under resembles my coffin And all the roads I walk are worn down and broken Imitate the sheep still dressed in wolf skin And pretend every carnivore I meet is my brethren. Got lost in translation somewhere between the seams When I stitched myself together with lies and broken dreams I'm not complaining life's as good as it can be Its just odd when the man in the mirror can't understand me. Even he could never know about the places I've been Or how it feels to have a mid-life crisis at ten. Strangely I died before I ever hit twenty. I may just be a carca** but this grave looks lovely. I sold my soul today. I sold my soul today. It wasn't worth what the devil paid. If I did something wrong then I apologize But at this point in my life I like to feel alive. I know this body was never really mine But it feels like it could be at some times So tonight I hope that you come to understand This wasn't in the plan, all the footprints in the sand Led me to the truth, I finally realized I'm just weaving through another ghost's life and that's alright. I'll keep my mouth shut but my tongue stretched acres I'll apologize now for what I'll say later. But I guess it doesn't matter, every word gets scattered If I had to choose between silence or d**h, I would pick the latter. And I did. There was too much left unspoken Couldn't care less if the windows to my soul are broken. Sure it leaves a mess but you shouldn't be distressed I'm not the only one that ever flew over the cuckoo's nest Found what wasn't lost, now I know the cost That a martyr must pay to signify a just cause. d**h doesn't care what you believe in As if faith is nothing more than an escape from our demons. I regret nothing. Since I won't wake up tomorrow, I can rest a**ured I'll never use the time I borrowed So close your eyes and forget me please So I won't be so embarra**ed when I have to leave. I sold my soul today. I sold my soul today. It wasn't worth what the devil paid.
