Lyrics
Who is that at my window?
Curiosity about someone outside the window.
Figures dissolve in all
Images fading away in every direction.
I listen as the wind blows
Attentiveness to the sound of the wind.
I'm staring at the walls
Intently observing the walls.
Welcome unknown complexions
Welcome to unfamiliar faces.
With nervous bouts of tension
Anxiety accompanied by tension.
Invasive complications
Complications that intrude forcefully.
In every strangers words
Hidden motives in the words of strangers.
Hidden intent awakens
Awareness of concealed intentions.
Each time my back is turned
Vigilance when turning away.
Let nothing manifest
A determination to prevent anything from materializing.
Can't ever lose my grip
Ensuring a firm hold on one's position.
Take out every threat
Eliminate every perceived threat.
Always two steps ahead
Being consistently ahead of potential issues.
I gotta stay in check
Maintaining self-control.
Distant ringing slaves away
A distant sound distracts and consumes.
And i just can't maintain
Struggling to endure and cope.
Every notion lingers
Persistent thoughts lingering.
But they won't have their say
Resistance against external influence.
I will replace them all
Replacing negative influences.
They're gone without a trace
Overcoming challenges without a trace.
Let nothing manifest
Preventing undesirable things from developing.
Play it close to the chest
Keeping plans and thoughts private.
Can't make out enemies
Difficulty distinguishing foes.
So I keep friends next to me
Valuing trusted companions.
I'll never let them leave
Commitment to keeping friends close.
Nobody gets to leave
A firm stance against allowing anyone to leave.
Four walls just staring back at me
Facing the confinement of four walls.
Nobody ever gets to leave
No one permitted to leave.
You are all now a part of me
Inclusion of others into one's identity.
At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn
Insomnia and restless thoughts.
Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned
Disturbing mental images at night.
At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn
Repetition of sleeplessness and unsettling visions.
Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned
Continued struggle with disturbing thoughts.
At night I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Insomnia persists, affecting the mind.
Four walls just staring back at me
Confrontation with the presence of four walls.
At night I can't sleep
Battling sleeplessness.
My mind is playing tricks on me
Mental struggles and illusions affecting perception.
