Lyric Wearing The Inside Out
From morning to night I stayed out of sight
Didn t recognise what I d become
No more than alive I d barely survive
In a word...overrun
Won t hear a sound
From my mouth
I ve spent too long
On the inside out
My skin is cold
To the human touch
This bleeding heart s
Not beating much
I murmured a vow of silence and now
I don t even hear when I think aloud
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
I m creeping back to life
My nervous system all away
I m wearing the inside out
Look at him now
He s paler somehow
But he s coming round
He s starting to choke
It s been so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
And with these words I can see
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Just give it time then speak my name
Now we can hear ourselves again
I m holding out
For the day
When all the clouds
Have blown away
I m with you now
Can speak your name
Now we can hear
Ourselves again
He s curled into the corner
But still the screen is flickering
With an endless stream of garbage to
...curse the place
In a sea of random images
The self-destructing animal
Waiting for the waves to break
He s standing on the threshold
Caught in fiery anger
And hurled into the furnace he ll
...curse the place
He s torn in all directions
And the screen is still flickering
Waiting for the flames to break
Didn t recognise what I d become
No more than alive I d barely survive
In a word...overrun
Won t hear a sound
From my mouth
I ve spent too long
On the inside out
My skin is cold
To the human touch
This bleeding heart s
Not beating much
I murmured a vow of silence and now
I don t even hear when I think aloud
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
I m creeping back to life
My nervous system all away
I m wearing the inside out
Look at him now
He s paler somehow
But he s coming round
He s starting to choke
It s been so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
And with these words I can see
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Just give it time then speak my name
Now we can hear ourselves again
I m holding out
For the day
When all the clouds
Have blown away
I m with you now
Can speak your name
Now we can hear
Ourselves again
He s curled into the corner
But still the screen is flickering
With an endless stream of garbage to
...curse the place
In a sea of random images
The self-destructing animal
Waiting for the waves to break
He s standing on the threshold
Caught in fiery anger
And hurled into the furnace he ll
...curse the place
He s torn in all directions
And the screen is still flickering
Waiting for the flames to break
