I'm standing on these stones
I plant these aching bones down
King without a throne now
Waves are crashing out
I'm scrolling through my phone
There's no one I can call now
I guess I'm all alone
How did that end up being?
Now
Pull yourself together boy
Re-construct like Lego toys
These thoughts you have could soon destroy
The progress you have made
It's pulling down like gravity
Emotional brutality
Just know the clock is ticking
And that nothing stays the same
I'm back up off the floor
'Cause I know that I got more in
Myself for round two (round two, round two)
In my boat without an oar
I still find my way to shore
In this ocean blue
I know you feel it, I know you feel it, know you feel it
'Cause I can see it now
And now I'm back up off the floor
'Cause I know that I got more and I'm ready for you
You've unleashed a sleepin' beast (beast)
A mythical, biblical creature
A demon that's breathin', you best call a priest (priest)
Or exorcist, wretched this, boy who is flexing his dark side
I can't find no peace (peace)
Belongs in asylums
No man is an island, so I'm a whole planet that speaks
That speaks of the pain that is drumming like
Pain on my brain and it's flooding the streets
So nail me to this cross now
Crucify me god, how am I meant to pray
If my hands are nailed down?
I'll build my very own effigy
That represents the pain in me
And burn it till it's ash I'm seeking
Freedom from myself
Vibrations move the speaker
Music, my Mona Lisa
I seek my refuge in a melody
Fix me up, my dealer
I'll breathe it like it's ether
I'll drink it by the litre
When half you life is spent with death
You do not fear the Reaper
For the plight of humankind remains the same
The biggest war we ever wage
Is the war we wage upon our own brains
A story as old as time
Duality dwells inside our thoughts
While we Ying-Yang, we will hang
On the noose with no support
I'm back up off the floor
'Cause I know that I got more
In myself for round two
In my boat without an oar
I still find my way to shore
In this ocean blue
I know you feel it, I know you feel it, know you feel it
'Cause I can see it now
And now I'm back up off the floor
'Cause I know that I got more and I'm ready for you
