Chromatica - Damiera

Your head starts over give it up

It’s sad I’ve found you in bed

You were raised on just enough to forget

It’s when you thought you were keeping yourself

You were rusting away from the outside

Now you’re filling so full of holes

Scared, waiting

Oh shaking, scared and alone

Hoping and waiting

Woah, woah

It’s tough to get at it honestly

Your guts bail check the odds it’s one, two… No!

But, take the stride of an honest man and then you’re always catching up

So take it easy

They all know you do 'cause you can’t do it well

Your ears ring like a tuning fork because they’re always talking

Shaking, scared and alone

Hoping and waiting

Shaking, scared and alone

Hoping and waiting

Edge

I’m on the edge

I’m on the outside of all this

Watching you fantasise

Why are you waiting?

Nobody’s making you

Give in enough, just enough to give it up

So in the end, when they ask if you are satisfied

Don’t want to hear you running your mouth

Expressed aloud complaining about

It’s a laugh, promise to give all of it back!

What else are we prone to get told?

Alone and waiting

Shaking, scared and alone

Hoping and waiting

Bottling in while pressing down the voice within as it tears you open

I see you turning, I see you hurting

Just tell me why you’ve wasted your time while wasting mine

Never again
