Empty Room

There were only nightmares last night Stitched together by crumbling staircases in houses filling with water Empty rooms are loudest when your head is sick And always running from something Why have you given me To the edge of the world where there's nobody listening And can you deliver me From this wretched unkindness and ask where the time has went Why is it you've given up? Are your demons so real, now you're saying you've had enough? And are you waiting for judgement day? For your nightmares to flee you, or cordially greet you? Why suddenly so tame? Has your fire burnt out or have you just encased it with grout? Why suddenly so low? Have you given yourself to delivering the final blow? You're blocking your ears while your eyes fill with tears And building these fences to encase your resentments Exploding completely on those you hold dearly And I'm watching you too, through a mirror in this Empty Room Yeah, I'm watching me do this to myself through a mirror in this Empty Room Windows shattered Jagged teeth threatening to bite my arms Not again Enemies guiding me My life depends on listening to them Or so I thought Are you so satisfied? Has your razor done wonders, like exhausting a lover? And what makes you so blind? That you cannot defeat this, or stand up to beat this? Well, who's telling who? Are you shifting this weight. cause you just cannot carry the hate? Who're you shifting it to? When your hands carry bruises from breaking mirrors inside your room Why suddenly so tame? Has your fire burnt out or have you just encased it with grout? Why suddenly so low? Have you given yourself to delivering the final blow? You're blocking your ears while your eyes fill with tears And building these fences to encase your resentments Exploding completely on those you hold dearly And I'm watching you too, through a mirror in this Empty Room Yeah, I'm watching me do this to myself through a mirror in this Empty Room Why suddenly so sad? Are you mad at yourself or the things that you feel you should have? What will rectify this? Should we hang by the neck or should you learn to not just get pissed? What do you call yourself now? Are you still voice of reason or now have you given yourself doubt? And are you so choked with strife? That you can't stand up and just learn to get on with you life? Why suddenly so tame? Has your fire burnt out or have you just encased it with grout? Why suddenly so low? Have you given yourself to delivering the final blow? You're blocking your ears while your eyes fill with tears And building these fences to encase your resentments Exploding completely on those you hold dearly And I'm watching you too, through a mirror in this Empty Room Yeah, I'm watching me do this to myself through a mirror in this Empty Room I cannot say why the house didn't bury me last night Or the waves trap me to the ceiling But I woke up alive, and in the pouring rain With a voice in my chest sternly declaring 'This too, I could handle'
