Bright lights flashing, burning up averted eyes Fractured freeways fabricate under blackened skies Cold emptiness wears the skyline's neon guise Tires cling to pavement, saying their goodbyes Eyes are open, none beyond Can we save those who've withdrawn Eyes are open, mind is gone Who is there to rely on In the hour when everyone is a sleep Walls will crack and through the floorboard darkness seeps One foot in will test to see if it's too deep Hold your breath or inside your heart it will creep Big smile seeming friendly Arms open to greet me Words assuring safety I know that this can't be Kneeling with us when it's rolling But the fog parts when they're going Stagnation the raven will sing Discord is all that this will bring
