Dead Dove

Shadows I follow, dreams that I've swallowed
Path's I mistook that led me far astray
Promises broken, words never spoken
I can't remember much more than today... fade away


Feel like an empty shell, I guess I hide it well
It's just the price I pay, to forsake the day
As I drift astray

Skyscraper canyons, a concrete dungeon
Our social construction dies in the lives we make
Vile expression, cold dark confession
You draw the lines and I step over and over and over...

I drink myself to sleep, clear vision bothers me
I hide my face to sigh, bored with this useless lie
Never wondered why

Feel like an empty shell, I guess I hide it well
It's just the price I pay, to forsake the day
As I drift astray

Blurred faces chatter, essence or matter?
It's just a dream to me, like a prophecy of hypocrisy
Form verses function, internal malfunction
We fight for the right to die in a useless lie
Never wondered why
Back
