I find myself staring at the sun more and more often lately
Thinking I belong somewhere else, here I find no meaning
The more I let it burn the longer it remains as a ghost on my mind
All I have to do is to close my eyes and I'll be fine, but no
Stillness of the world lays a weary passenger to rest once more
The moment just before everyone wakes might be the only true solitude
Are we sleeping with our eyes wide open?
And what do you see when you close your eyes? Close your eyes
Silhouette of a slumbering city
Roads entwine as path to nowhere
Morning still coloring the buildings
Kaleidoscopic skyline escape
We need isolation from everything to find our tranquility
We need to swim against the tide of stupidity, we made it into a tsunami
Are we sleeping with our eyes wide open?
And what do you see when you close your eyes? Close your eyes
Silhouette of a slumbering city
Roads entwine as path to nowhere
Morning still coloring the buildings
Kaleidoscopic skyline escape
Do what you do it's your choice to make
Be a part of the world that isn't part of you
I'm beginning to realize you have such a perfect disguise
When nobody knows, so nobody cares
You're beginning to sacrifice all you are
through their eyes you see yourself for the first time
Life is just a game of Russian roulette with no empty chamber
You place your bullets with care and conviction
So you can feel you control all the mistakes you avoided so long
How wonderful is your outcome
Thinking I belong somewhere else, here I find no meaning
The more I let it burn the longer it remains as a ghost on my mind
All I have to do is to close my eyes and I'll be fine, but no
Stillness of the world lays a weary passenger to rest once more
The moment just before everyone wakes might be the only true solitude
Are we sleeping with our eyes wide open?
And what do you see when you close your eyes? Close your eyes
Silhouette of a slumbering city
Roads entwine as path to nowhere
Morning still coloring the buildings
Kaleidoscopic skyline escape
We need isolation from everything to find our tranquility
We need to swim against the tide of stupidity, we made it into a tsunami
Are we sleeping with our eyes wide open?
And what do you see when you close your eyes? Close your eyes
