Lyrics
Confusion, confusion
If I bleed to sleep, could I wake from this illusion?
And time in circus air, and the melodies drift through my hair
But why are they so beautiful to you?
And screams ring inside my ears
The laughing parade of tears
And I whisper in the air
I will run away, I can't stay
Anything to numb the pain
Is there a pill I could take or can I make it in my mind?
Oh the hours, oh the hours, I will try
What might I find?
And they planted in me a dead seed
Planted in them before
Stretching back when the stars were black
All the children of war
And screams ring inside my ears
The laughing parade of tears
And I whisper in the air
I will run away, I can't stay
You and I, we are not the same
Is there a pill I could take or can I make it in my mind?
Oh the hours, oh the hours, I will try
What will I find?
I want to feel, the space between the walls
I want to feel, the echoes as they fall
I want to feel the child as he calls
I want to feel the shackles of the thrall
I want to feel anything at all
