about

World off, music on.

lyrics

I’m sitting in my four walls
time is moving fast,
but in the world outside my window
nothing rushes past.

All while I am tense
 like a tiger in a cage
dreaming away
the day

out in the darkness 
shines a light 
yesterday I was anxious
 but I'm better tonight

out in the darkness
 shines a light 
yesterday I was restless
 but I'm better tonight

I’m standing in the basement
temples in my mind
time is waves against them
lashing 'gainst their sides

passion grows in silence
turning into pain
crumbling away
today

 out in the darkness 
shines a light
 yesterday I was anxious 
but I'm better tonight

out in the darkness 
shines a light 
yesterday I was restless 
but I'm better tonight

(repeat chorus)
