Dear Dead Days

Home
The violence of your name
Still soothes me all the same
With echoes of my past
Safe surroundings
Meant to last

Everybody got an explanation
For a world that has lost sensation
Nothing saves the feelings we forgot to feel

Welcome to the family
Alone now you belong to me
Your life will be my property
I'll redefine your sanity

Dear Dead Days
Long to find us
And define us all those yesterdays
That remind us
We're the same in every way

Safe and sound
Beside you, hide you from them
The real, deride you, let me tie you in

Everybody got a desperation
For the girl in the situation
Headlines hiding feelings we forgot to feel

Welcome to the family
Alone now you belong to me
Your life will be my property
I'll redefine your sanity

Dear Dead Days
Long to find us
And define us all those yesterdays
That remind us
We're the same in every way

This life I have - I give to you
These thoughts I have - they're all for you
These things you say - I know they're true
There's no-one else - No-one but you

Now, outside
Feels like real life
My sky, eyes wide
Too wired to cry
You run
You hide
You taste
Suicide
Some child
Profiled
Beguiled
Defiled
Reviled

Dear Dead Days
Long to find us
And define us all those yesterdays
That remind us
We're the same in every way
