lyrics
Braille
Have you been here before? Seems you know the way out
Hands against the wall, like you're bracing for bad news
And I've always been told to fear the let down
Pacing the hallways up and down the ICU
Were going strong, but it's been 4 months since you found out,
And you knew it all along, now it's growing on your mind,
Spreading ideas inside your head, like how they guarantee its certain,
But you can't accept
(Chorus)
Until they take me away, I'm fighting just as hard as I know
And I won't ever close my eyes
In case they lead me astray these hands need something solid to hold,
Up against all odds I know I will, survive
Now they're keeping you contained within these four walls
Finding comfort in the safety of what you know,
But the numbers don't lie, just await the deep fall,
Praying you'll make it through the week, so you'll come
Home to find that's nothing changed, the needles in your veins,
And the machines tell me how I feel, through the secret war I wage,
And trace my fingers cross these lines to feel the words they raised, but I can't read the page
(Chorus)
Prove to me, help me see I'm not blind as I believe
Please god I only need some clarity
(Chorus x 2)
