The Sky Burns Brighter - Silhouettes Lyrics

If I don't fall asleep tonight, I think I'll lose my f*cking mind
I close my eyes and try to fade (But respite never comes)
I wish I could silence my mind and all these thoughts of what's behind
But they're part of me I'm afraid (No changing what's been done)

I am haunted by thoughts of sleep

I've lost touch with what is real
And I can never quite remember how it felt to be alive
All these days just bleed together
There's no use lying, I'm through with trying, so bury me and say goodbye

Try as I might I can't explain
But every single attempt is in vain

And I hear voices all around, but when they speak they make no sound
Is their temptation really there? (Or are these thoughts my own?)
And sometimes I see silhouettes, they're just the ghosts of past regrets
Their watchful eyes are everywhere (I'm never really alone)

I've lost touch with what is real
And I can never quite remember how it felt to be alive
All these days just bleed together
There's no use lying, I'm through with trying, so bury me and say goodbye
I can hear it calling me:
A voice so tempting cries out gently and begs for me to set it free
I can only fight only fight for so long
As it compels me and overwhelms me and takes control of everything

I am haunted by thoughts of sleep
