about

About sect talk, messianic complex, preachiness of any kind for anyone who's suddenly seen that light and feels compelled to share it with everyone, whether they're willing to listen or not.

lyrics

GLASS VOICES

What are they all doing, laughing inside my head
As I fight this unholy ghost in my bed
Kill one dream at a time
From the bad half of another life
Laughter, slamming doors and broken glass
Noises going dim, fading fast

Where is that light only few can see
With that holy grin, don’t bother showing me
Awake on the floor of a stranger’s friend
I’m losing what I’ll never find again
Free-falling into an endless void
Of broken thoughts and glass voices

Outside looking in, inside looking out
In and out of the crowd
The lights are so white, in a room so black
Is there a safe way back
A safe way back
A safe way back

Who is that guru I should want to meet
If he calls, don’t bother waking me
I dreamt of my death not so long ago
I was all dressed up with nowhere to go
The fog is gone, nowhere to go
No singing choir, no rejoice
Just less broken thoughts and glass voices
Less broken thoughts and glass voices
