Ruinous Calamity - Iron Chic

Alone with the thoughts in my head

They’re buzzing like flies again

Swarming this corpse of a man

And that’s all I am

And all I’ve ever been

The how and the why and the when

It’s all I know

And knowing’s a curse in itself

Yeah, I just don’t know what to do

I can lie to myself

But I can’t lie to you

When all our dreams are dead

I’ll start living again

I’ll start telling the truth

I’d like to be sleeping instead

But this floor isn’t soft like a bed

It’s all I know

And knowing’s a means to an end

Yeah, I just don’t know what to do

I can lie to myself

But I can’t lie to you

When all our dreams are dead

I’ll start living again

I’ll start telling the truth

As hard as I try to pretend (as hard as I try to pretend)

This is all I am

And all that I will be again
