lyrics
UNDER BLINDING LIGHTS
I'd like to take this time
And give you words that get so lost in the sound,
My lonely words are waiting to be found
This calms my nerves and sends signals
Shooting straight into my heart
It's beating faster when do I begin
To feel the point of separation
Oh how my body feels it now
I think someone took everything
But I know that time will take us
To some place I've never really known
We sit around exploring minds
Under blinding lights
I know the thoughts are coming fast
But the words don't mean a thing
We open our eyes and we all walk down, it's over now, they're all gone now
So don't go back into your mindless state
It's over now, we all cry out
Don't carry words you speak they're really not your own
Just give it back my thoughts you stole
You're not disappointing, disappointing me
I know somewhere deep in me
There's life it breathes and speaks so willingly, with a smile, a smile
We sit around exploring minds
Under blinding lights
I know the thoughts are coming fast
But the words don't mean a thing
So believe in me, these words I speak
If only time can tell then let me leave your eyes
We open our eyes and we all walk down
It's over now, they're all gone now
So don't go back into your mindless state
It's over now, we all cry out
Don't carry words you speak they're really not your own
Just give it back my thoughts you stole
You're not disappointing, disappointing me
