New Perspective

Angry ghosts keep me company

Eyes are closed but I'm awake

And I can't sleep deeply

Unless I've been drinking

Enough to drown out what they say

 

And what they say is more than I can take

Oh, what a warped way to learn from my mistakes

 

There are patterns in the static

Noises in my attic

Voices in my head keep me awake

I'm on the brink of madness

And I can't help but laugh at this

Oh, what a way

Oh, what a way to learn from my mistakes

 

Nobody gets away with anything

All must bear the balance sheet

So I befriend the voices

They've taught me some songs I guess

But, oh how the truth stings when they speak

 

And what they say

Is more than I can take

Oh, what a warped way to learn from my mistakes

 

Not awake but fighting sleep

I just hope

I can dream again

 

But there's patterns in the static

Noises in my attic

Voices in my head keep me awake

I'm on the brink of madness

And I can't help but laugh at this

Oh, what a way

Oh, what a way to learn from my mistakes
