(Verse 1)
A dull steady hum is the only sound
In this six-by-six tiled underground
I splashed some water to feel the cold
But my hands look tired and old
I’m tracing the jaw, counting the pores
Like I’m left lost on foreign shores
an angel sent but left with one wing
A hollow-point silence where I used to sing.
(Pre-Chorus)
And the steam starts to rise on the glass
Watching the years and memories pass
I’m reaching for someone I used to know
But the length is far and I’m sinking below
(Chorus)
I see a spirit covered in skin
Looking back at me with an evil grin
A loser in a simulated game
A face with no history, no name
Oh I don’t belong, I don’t belong
All the words without a song
Im looking through, I’m looking through
At a side of me that I never knew.
(Verse 2)
The light hits the glass in such ways
Shows the cracks I lacked yesterday
Is this what you take? Is this a mistake?
How much of me is showing as fake?
I’m checking the scars for any truth
For a map back to a 90s youth
My eyes, the lines tell a different tale
Of a ship sinking and a torn sail.
(Pre-Chorus)
And the steam starts to rise on the glass
Watching the years and memories pass
I’m reaching for someone I used to know
But the length is far and I’m sinking below
(Chorus)
I see a spirit covered in skin
Looking back at me with an evil grin
A loser in a simulated game
A face with no history, no name
Oh I don’t belong, I don’t belong
All the words without a song
Im looking through, I’m looking through
At a side of me that I never knew.
(Bridge)
Who are you? What do you need?
This is someone I’ve never seen.
Who are you? What do you need?
That evil grin is killing me?
He’s staring me down!
He’s wearing it proud!
He’s pulling me down!
He’s taking me out!!!
(Guitar Solo)
(Chorus)
I see a spirit covered in skin
Looking back at me with an evil grin
A loser in a simulated game
A face with no history, no name
Oh I don’t belong, I don’t belong
All the words without a song
Im looking through, I’m looking through
At a side of me that I never knew.
(Outro)
That I never knew (never knew)
Oh I’m looking through (looking through)
I’m looking through
At you
