Staind Reality Lyrics

Reality Lyrics

the lights are on but you're not home
you've drifted off somewhere
alone
somewhere that's safe,
no questions here
a quiet place where you
hide from your fears

[chorus]

sometimes when you're out of
rope
the way to climb back up's unclear
the walls you build around
yourself
i guess they also keep you there
are you afraid of what they
thing?
whoever "they" happen to be
or are you hiding from the scars of
your own reality?

so you sedate and drown in vain
you've got a pill
for every day
a suit and tie to mask the truth
its ugly head is starthing
to show through

[chorus]

[bridge]

the monster you're
feeding,
your lack of perception
the things you will do
to fullfill
addictions
the light at the end of your tunnel is closing
what is it that
you're so afraid of exposing?
you'd give it all up for what's there for the
taking
whatever it takes to keep your hands from shaking
the same things
you're thinking might make you feel better
the same things that probably get
you here

[chorus]

[bridge]
