lyrics

Strings

Now will you sleep tonight knowing everything you once lived and loved is gone?
Now will you try to fight for just one more last night, or let it all just slip along? The floor boards creek with weight and rot under your feet.
This is not a home when the walls are stripped by the seems.
The piano plays one last droning key; a note to shattering apart a family.
Strapped up to this bed your strength closes.
Weakening under suddenly disbelief.
Placed into the ground, your hands frozen and left holding onto nothing. Wired up to all these machines your final hour closes blissfully.
Placed into the ground your hands open.
You're home you're not alone.
One day you'll see that this life is just a painful dream.
We look to see what is up there, what is pulling the strings and what controls your faith.
But then they'll leave, you'll notice nothing but (tyranny).
Oh god, you take the strength from a broken man.
One day you'll see that this life is just a painful dream.
You kill the lights on me.
