On the Surface Lyrics


She wears her scars on her sleeve

In hopes that someone out there will see

Her life lies out before her

All the things she could not cure

And as the days pass she tries to erase

The taste of blood or the hollow face

That haunts her dreams she wants to scream

But is afraid they'll go unseen

Emptiness

Nothingness

Lifelessness

Ripping at her

And all this time, a bleeding mind

A forgotten crime

Left in her

I can't clean all the wounds in you

Of all the shame that you put me through

I can't breathe

I can't clean all they put you through

The windows of pain that you pull me through

I can't breathe

The hopelessness eats at her soul

Falling further from what we stole

She closes her eyes one last time

To insure the weakness finally dies

Emptiness

Nothingness

Lifelessness

Ripping at her

And all this time, a bleeding mind

A forgotten crime

Left in her

I can't clean all the wounds in you

Of all the shame that you put me through

I can't breathe

I can't clean all they put you through

The windows of pain that you pull me through

I can't breathe

Emptiness

Nothingness

Lifelessness

Ripping at her

And all this time, a bleeding mind

A forgotten crime

Left in her

I can't clean all the wounds in you

Of all the shame that you put me through

I can't breathe

I can't clean all the wounds in you

The windows of pain that you pull me through

I can't breathe

Emptiness

Nothingness

Lifelessness

Ripping at her

And all this time, a bleeding mind

A forgotten crime

Left in her
