Richard Wright/Anthony Moore)



>From morning to night I stayed out of sight

Didn't recognize I'd become

No more than alive I'd barely survive

In a word...overrun



Won't hear a sound

>From my mouth

I've spent too long

On the inside out

My skin is cold

To the human touch

This bleeding heart's

Not beating much



I murmured a vow of silence and now

I don't even hear when I think aloud

Extinguished by the light I turn on the night

Wear its darkness with an empty smile



I'm creeping back to life

My nervous system all awry

I'm wearing the inside out



Look at him now

He's paler somehow

But he's coming around

He's starting to choke

It's been so long since he spoke

Well he can have the words right from my mouth



And with these words I can see

Clear through the clouds that covered me

Just give it time then speak my name

Now we can hear ourselves again



I'm holding out

For the day

When all the coulds

Have blown away

I'm with you now

Can speak your name

Now we can hear

Ourselves again



He's curled into the corner

But still the screen is flickering

With an endless stream of garbage to...curse the place

In a sea of random images

The self-destructing animal

Waiting for the waves to break



He's standing on the threshold

Caught in fiery anger

And hurled into the furnace he'll...curse the place

He's torn in all directions

And still the screen is flickering

Waiting for the flames to break
