Album: The Illusion Of Safety

Deadbolt

When deadbolts awake you from deja vu dreams,
At 4 in the morning you know where I'll be
Out running red lights asleep at the wheel
The sirens feed my nightmares.
I just close my eyes and I’m already there;
Its already too late.
I know its nothing but lies,
But they sound so sincere;
I find them too hard to hate.

And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet,
So lets drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"
And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet,
So lets drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"

And I’m almost sure
That I've been here before,
That this is not the first time I’ve stood in front of this door,
With an overwhelming feeling that I shouldn’t go in,
But it seems this is a battle that I never could win.

Right now!
My true love!
You call from the hilltop.
You call through the streets,
"Darling don’t you know,
The water is poison."
And I say!
"Come on and give me my poison."

What have I done…?
Is it too late to save me from this place?
From the depths of the grave?
We all are those ..
Who thought we were brave…
What have I done…?
