(0308) torn in both directions

every day, the air feels the same. if you don't know how, don't look at me now.
everything's gonna bring me down. i can already see the blood coming out.
someone else will take my place. a better looking face with a different name.
i want a piece in the back of my mind, but there's nothing, nothing, nothing to find.
i can't survive this mess if i tried. i wish i could leave and say goodbye.

teeth go numb, and i look at the light.. and every time i look, it's blinding my eyes.

i talk in code, and the customers know they'll get what they need if they ignore what they see.
again, i wish this would end.
dear god, could you make it happen?

i try to get up and move around, but my friends don't even hear the sound.
a million people screaming - all in my dreams. i wake up, but they're haunting me.
we're basically animals that have learned to cry. get a new idea when the old one dies.
the early ones will get there late as the slowest ones will get there on time, but it's all the same.

can you wait here?
i'm still alive, but i'm getting scared.
