The path is paved
|
With past mistakes
|
A faceless dance
|
On the dead in the wake
|
My heart beats like
|
A lonely voice
|
My head is full of noise
|
|
If I had any sense
|
Of where to go
|
I'd give up leading
|
And I'd follow
|
My heart beats like
|
A lonely voice
|
My head is full of noise
|
|
I hear the teenage laughter
|
Of a cruel little girl
|
And a conscience
|
That I can't control
|
A million voices
|
Trying to be heard
|
I can't decipher
|
A single word
|
My heart beats like
|
A lonely voice
|
My head is full of noise
|
|
The bones and bodies
|
Underfoot all shattered
|
By the time it takes
|
Still haunting
|
Waiting on the wind
|
They call
|
And no one hears
|
|
I hear the teenage laughter
|
Of a cruel little girl
|
And a conscience
|
That I can't control
|
A million voices
|
Trying to be heard
|
I can't decipher
|
A single word
|
My heart beats like
|
A lonely voice
|
My head is full of noise
|
|
I hear the scuffle
|
And I feel the punch
|
I hear and feel
|
Altogether too much
|
My heart beats like
|
A lonely voice
|
My head is full of noise
|
|
