Lyrics
See the sign in my eyes. Mind escaping from me

On the crest of my wave too dark to see
The speaker feels overwhelmed by a situation, comparing it to a dark wave where clarity is obscured.
And the soreness that I feel beneath the surface

Fear the worst is still to come

Threating words come my way in some strange disguises

Flesh torn gestures in my face
Physical gestures and expressions directed at the speaker, causing emotional distress.
Don't take my place away

I could try to forgive

Even thought I don't know what should be forgiven

Do I go crazy, before you take notice

Until you can see it in me?

Drift away touch upon the deepest emotion

As I watch you'll become, someone else's problem

Given time I'll make waves in another ocean

I'm the chosen one.

Do I go crazy, before you take notice

Until you can see it in me, why can't you see it in me?

I adore you, I deplore you

All your actions I can see through

I can't pretend I know what's going on
