Lyrics

I've forgotten who my name
Sick and weak and fresh from sleep
I crawl from a crooked bed
With dirty feet and shaky hands
The numbers on the clock read
One-one-four-oh a.m
Ive got enough time to clean myself
Then sell my soul again
When I sleep I dream
I dream I am awake
Or was it when im awake
I dream I am asleep
I work I shit I eat I sleep
Inspected by the number seven
This cant be my life
No this isn't me

I don't know whats beset this change
I barely recognize my own face
In my mind somethings I know something's not right
But in my heart im bathed in golden light
Well im bathed in golden light!
Well im bathed in a golden light

My eyelids still heavy my pulse still faint
Im puzzle pieces- my memorys stained
I feel strength swell a day dream
Im shaking under this duality
My pulse is still faint
I hear a strange voice but dont know what its saying

And in this moment
Seconds stop and I burst with the clarity
A wealth of love and hate-- gone blank
For I finally remember my fucking name!

I eat rocks
And I breathe wind
Ive been around the world
And back again
Ive lost the static
The grey is gone
I have the power of
A million exploding suns!!

I am consumed by my might
Blinded in light as I would be in night
The void is holding me tight
It doesn't feel right

When will I ever break free
Within or without im chained by the dream
The void is holding me tight
It doesn't feel right

When will I ever break free
Within or without im chained by the dream
The void and the light are both me
It doesn't feel right

Now bright lights flood my eyes
Its true I realize
The perilous truth of a perilous life
By my own device
The strength of my high is the strength of my low
Unless theres no me
They both
They both explode
