Lyrics

Lie awake in a hospital bed With only the hum of machines To drown out these thoughts in my head Like a force that cannot be seen Losing air alone in a room with no end in sight White knuckle these attacks when they strike Wait for looming darkness to subside It's trapped inside and I can't let it out Like a body outlined in a damaged mind One, two, three, four Irony in chains Irony in chains They're the same, they're the same, they're the same, they're the same Well wishes under a thick coat of dust Good intentions bent to fit Nerves ground down to heavy rust Scraped away by nails bit to the quick Losing air alone in a room with no end in sight White knuckle these attacks when they strike Wait for looming darkness to subside It's trapped inside and I can't let it out Like a body outlined in a damaged mind It's trapped inside and I can't let it out Like a body outlined in a damaged mind One, two, three, four Irony in chains Irony in chains They're the same, they're the same, they're the same, they're the same Throwing sand in the eyes Crushed under the weight of the highs What's left after the will is trampled under calloused eyes? Episodes where I struggle to see the light at the end of the tunnel Suppress the need to understand What is suffering and what is normal
