lyrics

I thought you told them all they had to know to keep them down
But there’s something on my mind
Maybe on the one side, it didn’t really seem you had much to hide
But that’s enough to wonder why

I thought you told them all they had to hear to shut them up
But they never went away
Maybe you’ll be ok, pretend to make a memory fade to grey
But there’s a chance your shadow play is here to stay

I can’t believe everything that you told me fell apart with a stolen gaze
A feeling that you can’t hide, betrayed by your own two eyes
In this one, your head is filled with phantoms
You’re not alone in your own mind

You can do what you want, let them haunt you, let them play the confidant
If you try, you could see through the lie
You can have all you need, let them feed you, let them satisfy your greed
If you try, you could reclaim your mind

I can’t believe everything that you told me fell apart with a stolen gaze
A feeling that you can’t hide, betrayed by your own two eyes
In this one, your head is filled with phantoms
You’re not alone in your own mind

We all have days when it’s hard to keep our spirits
I know the spell can make you feel numb
But I can’t believe everything that you told me was coming from
A head that’s filled with phantoms
