Light Switch (The Pariah, the Parrot, the Delusion 2009)
I was put in a round room And told to sit in the corner While they wash my brain with a dirty rag
I was given a hammer And told to build a fortress With walls impossible to penetrate
You're the only thing I need And you've become the only thing That keeps me breathing, without you I'd be In a dark place, no lightswitch An open wound without a stitch Maybe now you will understand
No matter how stable The foundation may seem Everything is crashing down on me
With papercuts on fingertips Blackened eyes, and broken lips Forever wounded, it's hard to tell
You're the only thing I need Whether I fail or succeed Within my blindness, you are all I see The morning fog sun burns away A predator's eye without its prey Maybe now you will understand
