Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm looking through a portal It's got eyes and a mastery of gravity I'm lucky to be here now, I was lonely Talk to me, talk to me [Verse 2] I've got a new perspective The glass in my hand, it ain't exactly full The place at my table is an empty stool Talk to me, talk to me [Chorus 1] Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing [Verse 3] I'm like the bugs that sleep for years Conditions are ripe, they fly into the sun The spectacle gets to you, life is always new Talk to me, talk to me [Verse 4] From my waking sleep, I fear You're planning to prise yourself away from me You're planning to exit from my misery I can take a lot, but I'm not prepared to face the alone [Chorus 1] Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing [Verse 5] All I want is your hand on mine Slow rubbing, ecstasy of company I'm facing the lonely night with my fading sight Talk to me, talk to me [Verse 6] Many times I faced the wall I called for the peace and now I've got it all Peace grows into anguish when your heart leaks Talk to me, talk to me [Chorus 1] Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing [Chorus 1] Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing! [Chorus 2] Delusions are all my present currency They're causing the poison in my veins and voices Hearing voices telling me to beat the clock Doctor, please release me now I can't afford to waste another second I can't waste it [Chorus 1] Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control
