Rude Awakening - Sharptooth

This is the place where I go to emote

To fill and to spill and to burn and to choke

Where the feelings that I’m feeling, they all go up in smoke

And in flames go the words that I couldn’t have spoke

This is the place where it all comes apart

Where the walls that I’ve built crumble down at the start

Of the music, ‘cause I use it to pry open my heart

Force my inside to the outside while I’m calling it art

This is the place where it comes to a head:

The passion and the hatred, the doubt and the dread

Where I find that I’m unwinding at the tug of a thread

And I’m coming undone from inside my head

I cannot sleep

I can’t fucking breathe

I’m strangled by silence

But here I can scream

You took someone broken, you made them feel brave

You took someone lost, you made them feel saved

‘Cause in a world that tells us that we’re wrong

You made me feel right, made me feel I belong

I cannot sleep

I can’t fucking breathe

I’m strangled by silence

But here I can scream

Because inside me there is a violence

That only screaming could ever silence

Because inside me there is a violence

That only screaming could ever silence

This is where I come alive, this is what I need to survive

This is where I come alive, this is what I need to survive

I’m finally home
