lyrics

Accelerating through the pain
As best my heart can carry me
Exercising deep restraint
I can't let all my thoughts break free
No, I ain't got no time to kill
(Scatter-brained to all four winds)
A luxury to just sit still
(Appreciate serenity)

Look in these eyes and change your tune
Anxiety, oncoming doom
'Cos we know that this world ain't slowing down

How could you forget
These walls were built to keep me deaf
How will you connect
To someone trapped inside their head?
How could you forget
These walls were built to keep me deaf
How will you connect
To someone trapped inside their head?

(You crave that panacea for
The poison that's infecting me
Erase what keeps me so impure
Desperate to be problem-free)
My dreams define me
While sleep eludes me
My curse and my ascendancy

How could you forget
These walls were built to keep me deaf
How will you connect
To someone trapped inside their head?
How could you forget
These walls were built to keep me deaf
One more voice calling
No, you will not be heard, not yet!

It's not disease
It's hell inside me
You'd feel such heat
Intensity
Meet me halfway
Or don't meet me at all
I know there isn't any way
You'll see this

Oh no, you won't
For all my differing, yeah
You'll arrive at some
Reckless surmise
Yeah, your support is withering
And I could lie down
Meet careless demise
But no, I won't

It's not disease
It's hell inside me
You'd feel such heat
Intensity
Meet me halfway
Or don't meet me at all
I know there isn't any way
You'll see this

It's not disease
It's hell inside me
You'd feel such heat
Intensity
Meet me halfway
Or don't meet me at all
I know there isn't any way
You'll see this my way
It's not disease
It's hell inside me
You'd feel such heat
Intensity, oh no
Meet me halfway
Or don't meet me at all
I know there isn't any way
You'll see this my way

(Meet me halfway...)
