lyrics

Have I become
So predictable
You’d rather
I didn’t speak.

Has this become
So cyclical
That you’d rather
Loop than think

Its hard not to live in the dark
Close your eyes its all you see
Its a matter of choice
How you view the noise
Without the contrast the light couldn’t be

Have I become so predictable you rather I didn't speak?
You want to know whats so unattractive about me?
I love you exhaustingly
But when you see my eyes go from blue to grey you can tell I lost all the light from your extinguishing glow
I don't know when you became a light switch with so many settings but I already know what they all are
So if I may suggest
Please detach yourself and find a light source that will keep my eyes blue all day long.

You could live your life in the light
But you stay in the shadow
you could live your life in the light
and stay in the shadow
you could live your life in the light
why stay in the shadow

Whirled world in a circular motion
Open your eyes and see the explosion
