lyrics

How long has it been, since I last felt at all?
I have cut, bruised, and burned, yet continue to fall
Down this pit, there is nothing to see but the thoughts
And the phantom of somebody calling the shots!
Is it me? I don't feel I'm the one in control
My body moves along, still posessed by my soul
And I look from afar as I walk on my own
There is nothing in me but a haze I call my home

This blurry haze I can't control
I don't feel real, no I don't feel whole
This skin feels fake, doesn't feel like my own
And yet nothing feels real - like a dream, I walk alone

In this blurry haze
I walk alone
This blurry haze
I call my own

Spill my heart and my mind, have no idea who I am
As time spirals, and clocks spin, my heart is frozen
Let my mind rest easy, I will be free once at last
Bye for now, sown in my seeds, I see through my path
My hands are static, but I cannot feel my skin
I'm disconnected from the body that I'm in, and
My mind is sleeping but the body's awake
So please forgive me if I feel like I'm fake

This blurry haze I can't control
I don't feel real, no I don't feel whole
This skin feels fake, doesn't feel like my own
And yet nothing feels real - like a dream, I walk alone

In this blurry haze
I walk alone
This blurry haze
I call my own

I'm sleepwalking but this isn't a dream
Sleep talking but I just want to scream
I'm sleepwalking but this isn't a dream
Sleep talking but I just want to scream

(I'm not awake, I am not okay)
(I'm not awake, I am not okay)

Hovering off my body, yet still somehow inside
The stranger in the mirror, screams I'm dead inside
Everything feels fake, feel like I'm floating away
Drowning in a swimming pool, my mind's gone away

This blurry haze I can't control
I don't feel real, no I don't feel whole
This skin feels fake, doesn't feel like my own
And yet nothing feels real - like a dream, I walk alone

In this blurry haze
I walk alone
This blurry haze
I call my own

None of this feels real, It's all just a dream
Or is all of it real? It's so hard to see
All we know is that it all feels fake, in the end
And when I come back to me, it's too real to pretend
