Did I see you reaching out from behind closed blinds
A shadow in a window a phantom troubled by the light
Did you ever look outside when I walked by
Something inside of me never lets this memory die
There is nothing in our future but despair
There's a systematic fever in the air
One by one we gather to get on this ride
Must we sew the sand and keep it all inside
Blood keeps falling I keep calling
For someone to mend my life
I keep walking never talking
Only way I can survive
Bleeding patience fighting substance
Held together by my lies
Sometimes I cry
Why you and not I
You never let me say goodbye
There is nothing in our future but despair
There's a systematic fever in the air
One by one we gather to get on this ride
Must we sew the sand to keep it all inside
Never stopping never caring knowing why
I still hear your sirens ripping through my mind
Did you believe no one ever loved
Did you believe you would rise above
Never meant to make you feel betrayed
Never meant to push out the way
Forever filled with guilt deep down inside
Forever I just can't leave you to die
Would you care if I knew what to say
Or would you turn your lock and walk away
I am knocking at your door I won't forget you
I am staring through the window where god left you
I reach out and pull you close but what could I do
I still hear your sirens ripping through my mind
Through my mind
There is nothing in our future but despair
There's a systematic fever in the air
One by one we gather to get on this ride
Sew your sand just to keep it all deep inside
Never stopping never caring knowing why
I still hear your sirens ripping through my mind
Through my mind
