lyrics

We were halfway down to Alsbury Hill when the synapses began to fire
Under these false pretenses I could take it higher
My thoughts were vicious so but possible to bear
But then the world was just one more nightmare

The streetlines blurred beneath me when I knew the pieces fell
Who needed enemies when you had mental hell
Just think of all the different ways that you can die today
Might as well stay home and pray

Ease your troubled mind
Come in here to find
Why should I leave now, when everyone's so kind

Wash the world away
Stay with us today
We built these walls so you can keep the world at bay

I was halfway down to madness when the sirens began to sound
Too much was left undone to throw it away now
I know it won't be easy, but if you notice soon
There might still be hope for you

I know you've seen the numbers and I know you've seen the flaws
Sometimes you can feel obsessions giving pause
Some nights when you're alone and cold and dying in the dark
We both know that we can see that spark

Ease your troubled mind
Come in here to find
Why should I leave now, when everyone's so kind

They don't understand
They just reprimand
But we're always doing everything we can

Ease your troubled mind
Come in here to find
Why should I leave now, when everyone's so kind

Wash the world away
Stay with us today
We built these walls so you can keep the world at bay

I'm still on that dividing line, still up there on the hill
It's hard to make these strides when you don't have the will
I know that I'm still hiding here and I will never learn
But when I look inside that fire still burns
