It's frightening
How you can't see the changes happening
When they move so fast
Like lightning
Except the odds are growing
These lonely times will strike me twice
The screams of a thousand voices
Are whispers inside my head
The echoes of silence
Self-defence
So how many times will it take
To cover up the past mistakes
And hide behind a crying face of shame
And how many nights will I lie
Awaken through the blackened skies
I've cursed out so many times
It's biting
When the cold wind blows
Through weathered eyes
And blistered skin
It's quiet now
It's like the calm before
The raging violence of the storm begins
And when this comes crashing down
I'll fall harder than before
I'll stop this all over now
So how many times will it take
To cover up the past mistakes
And hide behind a crying face of shame
And how many nights will I lie




Like a dirty flag in skies I've cursed out so many times before
I'll beg for the ending or just for forgiveness
I'll wait in the shadows of a battle I'm close to moving
How many times will it take to cover up the smiling face of silence, this face of shame?
How many nights will I lie awake a dirty flag in skies I've cursed out?
So many times before
How many nights will it take to cover up the smiling face of silence, this face of shame?
How many nights will it take to cover up the smiling face of silence, this face of shame?
