lyrics

Hidden away, deep inside
Flickers a flame of desire
Safe from the rain but starved of air
The sickness of shame - the guilt of lies
The lingering pain of dreams denied
Soaked in the blame of past regret

Hide away
there's an oceans unrest in me
and I'm waiting impatiently
Tidal waves
like eruptions form within me
as I’m desperately pretending

Idling by, as the storm
intensifies like a war
raging underneath, the thickness of my skin
is a thin veneer
An impulse abstained - a life ignored
A simple refrain - a second thought
Lost in a maze of insincere adherence
to a false idea

Hide away
there's an oceans unrest in me
and I'm waiting impatiently
Tidal waves
like eruptions form within me
as I’m desperately pretending

My lies made me
Made me all I’ve come to be
I could break free
But inside I’m breaking

Closing my tired eyes to watch the wind
Frozen in turpentine liniment
Severed threads - settled bets
Scattered thoughts like ashes pour my epithets
Chased my entire life by what I’m not Fate-tied and finalised my future
Seven sins - subtle stings
Shattered dreams lay atrophied in my unrest

My mind left home
Left me all too long ago
Time can change all
But by time I’m dispossessed
My eyes stay closed
Shut since all those years ago
And I could change it
But inside, I’m broken by unrest

Hide away
there's an oceans unrest in me
no more waiting - no more waiting
Tidal waves
like eruptions from within me
no more desperate - desperation
Hide and seek
the obstructions built up in me
no more hiding - no more hiding
Finally
The destruction buried in me
overflows beyond my instincts

Now I can breath..
Now I can see.. Now I can sleep.
