WISEMANSAY - Hostage Lyrics

Simmer down, it goes down from here
Sing it loud, when they told you to fear
Must be a mistake, I must be terribly lost
(Lost it all)
I'm letting me go
Who do I trust?
These voices or my anxious thoughts?
(Are breaking in) And tearing my soul apart
Picking apart the membrane of my mind
Save me before I go!
The echoes are screaming from all that I've done
They won't let me escape it- I'm lost in the sound
Trying to restart when you're getting knocked down again
(Don't tell me that you're taking everything I have left!)
(They hear what I'm thinking, they all keep watching me, my mind is racing)
Looking for a finish line
You never thought you'd cross the line but we've been here before
It's just
Restless sleep, heart fatigued
I wonder if I'll find me
It's killing me, it's killing me
You told me I won't ever leave
Lost in the static of darkness
It's a goddamn nightmare!!
(A nightmare that I can't wake up from)
(Get out of my f*cking head)
There's never been a time more perfect than this
When I'm torn all the way down, I'm at my wits
I'm swimming in clouds
Can't breathe on my own
Told me pain is temporary
But f*ck! It feels permanent.
Yeah, all of the times where I trusted myself
Led to me getting hurt, I'm trapped in a storm cell
So what if I lose everything that I've got?
Told me it's not here to stay, but I wish it was permanent!
Yeah
(Stay alive!)
