That Was Just Your Life
Like a siren in my head that always threatens to repeatLike a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver's seat.Like a faceThat learns to speakWhen all it knew was how to bite.
Like a misery that keeps me focusedThough i've gone astray.Like an endless nightmare thatI must awaken from each day.Like convictionA premonitionNot worthy of, so I deny… …I deny.
I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place.I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace.I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by.I open just in time to say goodbye.
Almost like your life.Almost like your endless fight.Curse the day is long.Realize you don't belong.Disconnect somehowNever stop the bleeding now.Almost like your fight.And there it went,Almost like your life.
Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think.Like a raging river drowning when I only need a drink.Like a poisonThat I swallowBut I want the world to die.
Like a release from prisonThat I didn't know I was in.Like a fight to live the past I prayedTo leave From way back then.Like a generalWithout a missionUntil the war will start again… …start again.
I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place.I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace.I blind my eyes,I hide and feel it passing me by.I open just in time to say goodbye.
Almost like your life.Almost like your endless fight.Curse the day is long.Realize you don't belong.Disconnect somehowNever stop the bleeding now.Almost like your fight.And there it went,Almost like your life.
Like a touch from hell to feel how hotThat it can get if you get caught.Like a strike from heaven turns that keyAnd brings you straight down to your knees.
Like a touch from hell to feel how hotThat it can get if I get caught.Like a strike from heaven to reprieveThat brings you straight down to your knees.
Almost like your life.Almost like your endless fight.Curse the day is long.Realize you don't belong.Disconnect somehowNever stop the bleeding now.Almost like your fight.And there it went,Almost like your life.That was just your life.
